[RobertHammer]

it does have those Led covers on , so they could make the Endurace variant with those led lights

it is severely tempting me to abandon Ferrari in the GTWS
hoping it's rubbish under BoP conditions

We'll get an Alpine extra menu and I just sold the Vision Alpine yesterday lol

 

[Famine]

North Yorkshire?

NORTH YORKSHIRE?

😖

 

[Rossell2]

Quick Q for the educated ones. Is this the first premium XJ220?

At least they didn't use the A220 race car for the menu, and make people wait for it to eventually return to the Legends dealer.

I've sold all my VGTs as well (and most of Brand Central) so that menu won't be completed.

Now that you mention it, it is a bit strange to have the two M6 GT3s pad out the car list as unique cars when they're just different liveries and a set of lights and vents that could have been a customization option in GT Auto.

Especially when there are plenty of other race cars in the game with different "factory" livery options and GT Auto parts.

From memory (so I could be wrong), there's two livery options for the M6 GT3 BMW Motorsport Customer car (can't remember if the second one is the livery from the Evo or not), and then there's the Walkenhorst M6 GT3 based on the endurance spec. The reason for including the Walkenhorst car at all is likely because Kaz raced it, and he wanted to. The reason why it's a separate vehicle could be because it's licensed from Walkenhorst, where as the other M6 in it's 2 variants, is licensed from BMW Motorsport.

I don't pay that much attention to the livery options in Brand central, but are there many cars that offer the factory livery and a privateer livery on the same car, and there any that have body mod options?

In Gran Turismo yes.

 

[OFautomotive]

Yep it is

 

[Fezzik]

So Fuji, Suzuka or Autopolis for the Super Formula event? To tie in with the real life schedule.

 

[Coiler]

W can finally do xj220 justice by swapping an v12 (and wide body maybe)...

 

[Scuderia Paul]

I would hope, and kind of expect, that GT Auto will allow us to apply aero parts to convert the XJ220 into the XJ220S.

There is Alpine and Shelby Cafe Menus at least.

Nope! Shelby and Alpine

Fuji has had an update to bring it up to current specs, it seems.
Wouldn't mind them including this in the trailer to be honest, but whatever. PD moment.

Is the difference only in trackside scenery (e.g. that building?)

As far as I'm aware, yes - there haven't been any layout changes for years with Fuji.
Will only be aesthetic differences.

 

[MatskiMonk]

I take it the Shelby has just gone out of stock at the LCD?

I wasn't thinking about layout changes, but maybe things like some runoffs getting changed, reprofiling of some corners or something like that, but that would likely cause issues anyway (e.g. replays won't properly match the track anymore)

 

[Fezzik]

GT350 - last seen 07/03
Cobra 427 - last seen 08/04

Neither one close to the top of the list for a return.

Noooo, they ruined the view!

Fuji, if the screenshot in the update announcement is indicative.

 

[i386]

"Ok, but what am I going to do with them?"

take the x220 to daytona tri oval for 111 laps?

 

[MroczMR]

YES!!! Super Formula races! Let's go!!!

It is great but on the other hand… is it the only new event type?

 

[Bojador]

Why not all three? Make it a championship.

 

[luckii95]

One more race event... there already are so many. Why only adding 2 new locations for scapes?
Please PD don't split your effort on so many things... cars, tracks, races. Focus only on scapes, that's all everyone cares about.
No one needs some more interesting/challenging/rewarding racing content. Racing is bad for the environment anyway.

 

[Fezzik]

Multi-events? Championships? That sounds perilously close to a traditional career mode.

It does say "race event" - singular
