GT7-The iconic cars that need to stay

They should all stay, at least the significant models. The Miata is the new Skyline, but I don't think many would complain if all 50 some odd didn't make it into GT7.
 
I would not complain if PD "converted" 50 unambiguously classic standard cars to premium for GT7. Yes, it would sacrifice some new additions to the series, but this way they can clean up and make it easier to just leave the PS2 models behind for good.
 
Personal Fav's:
Mazda2 '03
Berlinette R/S Coupe '99
Accord Type-R '02
MX-5 Miata 1800 RS (J) '00
DB7 Coupe '00
Impreza WRX STi 22B '98
Mazdaspeed Atenza '05 (its a Mazda6 MPS but stupidity dictates its called an "atenza")
Axela 23S '03 (same thing)
 
Tony Kaira ZZII. Nothing says GT3-6 like that beast!

Also the escudo, and skylines NUR! Remember that time in gt4 when u got the Nur and put 940-1080 hp on it?

Good times.

That's right, that's only half
 
I believe that the best solution would be to keep all cars,just remove the "not sport cars" and bring back old sport cars already missing in last gt5 and 6 (NISSAN PULSAR GTI-R) for exemple...
Everybody have old GT gen cars, we want to keep...
It is the only way i think to satisfy people from all continents!

by the way, just i never understood about iconic cars they forgot!
I will talk only about european road cars coz i do not know what is to consider really as icones for people from other continents.
They gave,LANCIA DELTA INTEGRALE but never we had SIERRA COSWORTH,ESCORT COSWORTH,405 TURBO 16,RENAULT 21 2.0L TURBO etc... that was kind of collection they should integrated.
Same with GTI's we had nice old GOLF GTI mk1 but where are the MK2 G60, GTI 16, 205 GTI1.9, 309 GTI 16 ,
super 5 gt turbo,Clio williams,Fiat uno turbo ie etc???
When i see in GT6 a normal FIAT 500(not talking about the abarth)!!!
I just do not understand,as well seeing old war military cars?
Am i the only one to not understand these gold GTI times legacy to be forgot?
They are a big part of european sport car history,but never we saw them in GT world...


Wonder PD could read this and consider it for european customers!!! Yes i know i dream to much...
Maybe this should be a full topic! do it exist???

if yes sorry to mod!
 
its because they are designed for normal people. Normal people drive Micra's, Jazzes, Colts, 2's, 500's, 307's, ST's even.
(Note: Equate those to March's, Fit's, Colt's, Demio's, 500's, 307's, ST's if you live in Japan/America).
Its a pretty cool feeling and a great sell-factor to find your own car in a game. Although the 49 skyline's/GTR's (will probably be 50 with the GTR LM) are a problem.

It's a fact Thomas_633 !
I totaly agree with you,to find everyday car's in the game is a major point to make it "sell-factor".
It's exactly kind of cars i like to play(road cars)so for sure i understand your point.
Ionly played race cars just for progessing in GTurismo.
Yes,but potentialy the customer of this game are car lovers,i do not know much people(2%???) playing this kind of normal car or war cars(i never saw any online to be honest).
I play GT since the first release(yes i 'm kind of adulteen),but honestly i would like to play more a golf gti or that kind of hot small cars than a 307...
Even new gt players generation will focus more to play sport car they dream than a standard car.
Well it is my point of view,just try to debate of it,because i believe it is a point of what cars should stay in GT7.
Considering what you said,it seems yes,some people would like to keep it,bringing me to the conclusion:
Remove nothing just add more cars,and the youngtimer cars missing pleaaaasseee...:bowdown:

The power of GT is to offer different kind of cars to different kind of players,but it is also their weakness...
To much people to satisfy i guess!
 
Youngtimer
just remove the "not sport cars"

No.

That's what I like about Gran Turismo. Variety. You can make a "not sport car" perform on par or even better than a sports car themselves. That's what it was like in GT1-GT4. You could get some used car that is whack as your first car, and hey, it could beat a Miata. Miatas are sports cars.
 
It'd be great if PD hired a a nice little team to solely model the most iconic and driven standards, I'm sure they've collected lots of statistics when people log in. If PD created a lot more weekly rotating pre-set online events with a only a select few cool cars to pick from (with a very balanced PP.. so not that huge Elise or NSX type advantage) like they had in GT5 Prologue or Quick Match now, ALL these awesome cars could get much more use and love.

BUT I also think there should be a ~$50 DLC for say a 100 car pack, call it a GT7 expansion pack.. they simply cannot put SO much content into a $69.95 game. It'll be downloaded in droves that's for sure.. especially when people see them driven online and WANT! :drool:

You're kidding, right?

It's $50. For a DLC, I don't think that much people would get that. Plus, I'm sure that would give all the more complaints towards the game in itself.
 
Honestly,if they do such offer... i 'll buy it.
We must never forget how many hours work it cost to PD.
The world is not Disney world,money rules the world.
Such add on(100 cars at 50 box for me is fair).
But all premium,no more ps2 shapes.

And bring back the PULSAR GTI-R bouaaaaahhhhhhh:(

For a 100 premiumized cars.. later in GT7's life? No. That'd be a steal. They could also chicken feed 5 at a time for 10 bucks like some developers enjoy doing (Turn 10). Or dare I say some of that hilariously quick and simple created weaponry for expample for a couple dollars.. lol.. aaand thousands of people pay.
 
that's pretty much impossible, but at very least they should get the duplicates out, as that makes a lot less cars to do, and if they can do another 200 for the next game that's great. I think the main reason people want them gone is so that PD has less work to do.

If you're trying to make premium more standard cars, why would you get rid of the duplicates? If you make one premium, you've just made 10 of them premium with minor tweaking. In fact you're more likely to see the cars that are duplicates made premium for that reason, it ups the artificially high car count and looks better on the box.

Never mind about Banzaiii i just love say that...
(it's something between me and someone was very precious from Osaka).

About people getting mad i think both of you are right!!!
All this would not happen if PD had done the job correctly in previous versions.
They focused so much on having an huge car collection...
I guess they considerated it wasn't the priority to update the old gen 3dmodels,people would be satisfied with cars from previous GTs.
But if this is right so why some were removed? this i not understand Puslar gti-r for exemple???

It is my modest customer idea,i am not in PD to know exactly what they plan,but i believe it is not so far from truth!

Finally i do not understand where PD is heading for GT7... i mean.
I follow Gran Turismo since first episode,for sure the game graphically,technically what ever we think have grow in a better game.
But they lost something on the way,the i cannot find the fun i had in the 4 first GT!!!

what do you think ?
 
ive only got the cheap laptop version of GT2 and PSP so I can't answer that. I liked GT4 but it was either too winnable by using OP cars or just too hard (like the lisences).

GT4 and GT5 were pretty easy for it's standards. All you had to do was at least get the specific car of its nationality, type, aspiration, and/or drivetrain and you're all set. GT5 has all of it's races allow you to use any tyre for A-spec.
 
These are the ones that I absolutely think need to stay.

  1. Toyota GT-ONE (TS020)
  2. Nissan R390 GT1 Race Car
  3. Mazda 787B
  4. Nissan Calsonic Skyline JGTC
  5. Toyota Castrol Toms Supra JGTC '00
  6. Dodge Viper GTS '99
  7. Nissan Skyline R33 '95
  8. Nissan Skyline R34 '99
  9. Nissan Skyline R32 '89
  10. Audi TT Quattro '00
  11. Honda NSX Type-S Zero '99
  12. TVR Griffith 500
I know most of these are Japanese, but it just wouldn't be the same without them.
