[sparkytooth]

you asked questions, i answered them. Don't get upset if you don't like the answers.

I don't see anything to be upset about?

Tracks aren't teased in these images, we know about tracks when the update comes out, so wait.

And wait, and wait, and wait. Been waiting since launch. Six months. What real tracks did we get? Monza?

Oh, and a few new layouts of existing (and, IMHO, not very good) tracks in the game. (So that doesn't make them 'new' tracks, IMHO)

Six months. One GT6 track. Do the math. We'll be playing GT with brain interfaces before PD come close to GT6's track list!

I dunno what all that has to do with me, but all I'm saying is that we'll know whether or not new tracks will come when the update is released, so relax.

Or play a better game with LOTS more tracks...

I'm sure you'd rather do that than waste away your time on an internet forum complaining about a game you percieve as inferior.

 

[simsimsheree]

So, you are under the impression that PD will bother making it better if we all just ignore its shortcomings? Let me know how well that ever works out?

I've been on GT since GT5Pro, and one thing I've seen over those years has been PD does next to NOTHING unless the player base hold their feet to the fire.

Every improvement the game has made has been in response to criticism from the base. So, if you enjoy the game as it is now, thank those of us that did for the game you have.

 

[sparkytooth]

I mean, it's not like there aren't any threads for that sort of forcing PD's hand thing if you believe you can, no need to explode on me for that when I'm trying to be helpful I guess.

 

[CSMDuty11]

Do I happen to be, the only one, who happens to think the 7th car, or the 3rd car in the middle row, might not be a GT-R?
Because i'd say the front is closer to a racing version of the Infiniti Q60

If it was a GT-R, GT500 or not, you'd think it'd match as well with the more-standard GT-R in the corner like the two Lexuses do.
....Buuuut it really doesn't.

That's because GT500 cars, particularly the GT-R barely resemble their roadcar counterparts. This post shows the resemblance the best

Lemme use that weapon against itself.
Look at the front of the silhouette, then the front of the GT-R in the gif
The GT-R itself has a steep close-to-90 degree front, but the silhouette curves toward the wheels.
And need I mention, on the other GT-R, the below-the-logo part is highlighted, on here it isn't despite it being present on the GT500 version too.
With the curvature of the lights also being different.
Along with it highlighting an odd part of the C-Pillar on the silhouette that should be blank on the GT-R
And the rear wing, on the silhouette, it doesn't seem to match in the slightest.

I mean... They've done that in GT5 and GT6 so... Sure why not?

I've been on GT since GT5Pro

Blog it.

Errrrrr I'm not sure that's true... Like at all.

thank those of us that did for the game you have.

Ok, I'll pass my thanks to PD.

I think it matches pretty well, and it makes sense as well when you see the other two GT500 car silhouettes, so I'd say most of us have a pretty well founded guess. Mind that these images are lighted very lowly and sometimes very weirdly because the point is obscuring them. But I'm pretty adamant it's a 2016 GT-R GT500, probably the Motul car given how dark it looks even amongst the already dark image.

 

[SHGTP]

I would love to see the DTM car but only if we get a direct rival for it. Those cars are enormous fun in Assetto Corsa and the sound is intoxicating.

There's a decent chance the old GT-R in this pack is the Group A Calsonic car.

Only need to model the interior, record new sound, and update physics. I could see that happening with the E30 M3 too.

It's because of an angle. Hard to find a pic with completely matched angle.

PD has the data to create a "Super Premium" Alfa 155, so I think there's hope for some old school touring cars..
Agreed about the engine notes. The intake sound of that M3 is simply perfect.

 

[Ande3200]

Looks to be some more Nice car. Really hope the last car is the r33 My favorite skyline. Hope the aston is the db11. And some other Nice cars as well

Lol

 

[Ande3200]

Hope for a new track location Also. But even new track layouts is better than nothing. For a new track i hope for circuit de la sarthe the most. But the original tracks would be Amazing to have back as well. I still need some kind of better high speed track than Tokyo.

 

[jwest]

ANOTHER R35?

Prediction based on what we spotted so far

The bottom right R32 lookalike is obscure to me. Maybe an old school R32 Drag Car?

In above posts, I mentioned the R32 Nismo. The lights and rear spoiler look different to the standard R33. Maybe if it is the R33, could be the 400R?

 

[zaxs]

It would be much more cool from PD if they released new Supra at Geneva opening and now standard 12 car pack.

But that's not important now.
I appreciate that they are so accurate and doing what they have promised.


But, the most important thing is related to adding new tracks, improving penalty system and BoP corrections.

More lobby options and detailed leaderboards would be welcome asap too.

 

[VXR]

The 400R had the similar wing shape to the regular R33, the silhouette looks a lot more like a Kouki S14 rear wing.

 

[MatskiMonk]

I'm hoping for an R33, I'd love the Nismo 400R... but I'm wondering if it could be the Nismo 270R?

 

[PocketZeven]

Havent played GT in a month. The added cars are great, but add no value for me personally. Thats why I have been playing a lot of Pcars 2 and lately F1 2017. If PD would just add some more tracks it would pull me right back in! I personally always liked the feel of GT. But get bored too fast with the current tracklist.

 

[VXR]

As long as it could be painted, I'd be down for that. Made little sense you couldn't paint it in GT6.

 

[Ryan Dungey]

The 3rd car on the bottom row is the Lexus RCF GT Pikes Peak concept.

 

[mark5917]

Yes, but it wouldn't be Gran Turismo!

That's What It's All About.

 

[Armand Manga]

Most likely the GT350 from GT6 perhaps?

I thought about that too

 

[KingFrog]

I'm pretty sure we're gonna get a new lay out since we got a new law out in Decmber / January / February . Also it seems We have 2-3 super gt cars . Fingers crossed it's a new GR and not gr x .
