Legendary cars dealer refresh

[CustomX]

The "sticker shock" Sunday night refresh:

NEW:

• 1994 McLaren McLaren F1, 19,400,000 Cr. (up 900,000 Cr. from its previous appearance...and with an up-arrow)
• 1970 Porsche 917K, 18,000,000 Cr. (no change)

Anyone got some recommended tunes for these bad boys?

The McLaren F1 truly has to be a special car.

This is a car that went into production in 1994, and in less than 30 years, it's already one of the most expensive cars in the world. It's far more expensive than even a lot of the 50s and 60s state of the art icons of the time.

The F40, the F50, and several other supercars of more or less the same time, while still expensive cars, are nowhere near the F1.

Funny that the McLaren F1 used to cost around 1M, and some years ago, out of nowhere, it just jumped to 15M

How many times did Rowan Atkinson crash his McLaren F1?

After two driving incidents, Atkinson decided to say goodbye to his beloved McLaren in 2015. He sold it through a private dealership and is understood to have fetched $12.2 million for it. Despite all of the repairs on the F1 and the initial cost of just under $1 million, Atkinson sold it for a major profit.

So after more or less wrecking it twice, he still got 12M for it in 2015. Car markets are weird.

Damn
Thats like winning the lottery.

 

[Gomario JSP]

Strange how the F40 just fell out of the rotation. Aside from that, that Seamus guy's spreadsheet of expected dates for LCD cars has been flawless!

True, and i hate this lol, it's one of the once i really want, I rather have the F40 then the F1 right now, i asume it will return some day :-)

 

[nfsp2kTW]

Is DP humiliating players who don't have time to spare?
You can't afford a dream car in reality, and you Don't think about it in the game.

Well, it was THE Rowan Atkinson who owned that car so that might factored in how his F1 was sold in that price.

And the (likely) next two cars

Gran Turismo 7 | kudosprime.com

Manufacturer: Ford, Model: GT40 Mark I '66, Category: No Gr, Weight: 2,381 Lbs

-> Price raises by 850,000 Cr

Gran Turismo 7 | kudosprime.com

Manufacturer: De Tomaso, Model: Mangusta '69, Category: No Gr, Weight: 2,612 Lbs

-> price unchanged

PS: i didn't update price of all other legendary cars on K', yet.

 

[HyperSpeeder]

IMO most people (including myself!) are playing the game wrong. You're clearly not intended to own all of the cars, but focus on a few you like. It's almost impossible to buy both the F1 and the 917K at the same time if you do less than braindead grinding.

Or, you can buy credits with money, but the MTX are so expensive that they're worthless, especially when 1 hour of grinding gives me similar income.

That being said, delaying the F40 just before a price revision was a kick in the nuts. Who approved this decision?

Also the McLaren F1 is one of the cars in the game with the coolest upgrades... I'm scared of widebodying it, but man, does it look good with all the racing bits. I feel for people who can't buy one in the game.

Easily one of my favorite supercars when it comes to upgrades, next to the... F40.

Dammit, gt40 is another car I want...

 

[Doncarlone]

I have bought McLaren F1 1994. It's really unstable car and not easy to drive at all. Huayra 2013 much more stable car in the same hard race tires. I should compare with GT Sport version, cos as I remember it was very stable (it has stabbility rating 5.7)

I have bought almost all legendary cars. Almost all cars are unstable and hard to drive copare mordern cars. Even LaFerrari in GT7 looks very easy to drive compare F1 1994 (and it has stability raring 4.1 in GT Sport)

My main question about the mclarenf1:
Is the mclaren f1 good for the tokyo wtc 600?
Because another car from that era, the ferrari f50, is one of the easiest winners of that race.
Very bad if the legendary mclaren f1 is outmached by the ferrari f50, but by what you said, it seems that way.

I don't know when it'll pop, but if you're afraid of the price raise, you're right ->

Except you are,the game encourages you to do so several times and gives you a nice menu to check them off.

Besides even if it wasn't, it's pretty obvious these two cars are going to be two that a lot of people do want, they're highly desirable.

 

[RPR6143 RPG]

Finally I bought the C9.

I hope PD bring more cars from Group C. They are fantastic cars.

I just wish those cars would race with themselves. It's really uncomfortable, like a kick in the eggs, racing with modern LMP1s and Group C cars.

I bought it too

Agreed! I took this picture of the 950PP race at Suzuka as, IMO, these three cars shouldn't be racing each other. They all need their own series/races for sure.

The Aston Martin DP-100 VGT is probably the easiest to win Tokyo, now that the Tomahawk has been put to rest.

It's possible to build for 600. Not sure if you can have downforce. But car is light with good power, so should be an easy win.

I think GT7 has a strangely mixed personality. The menubooks clearly scream this game is a collectors game, the Legendary dealership screams savour this game and buy the very expensive stuff over a longer period of time, but then nothing else about the game really works with that. And if it's not about collecting all the cars, I struggle to see what GT7 is really all about since there's so little else to do with all those different cars.

If there were daily races or objectives that made it natural to come back to GT7 and get some rewards, aside from the daily 5,000 Cr., then I'd feel a lot differently. Hopefully some day GT7 will get to that point where it's a more natural game to collect stuff over time. Right now the best way for me to buy cars seems to do a handful of repeat races a day (say 1--3 half hour races tops) and accumulate over time. But even that bores me quite quickly.

 

[tonybarnaby]

Bought the Sauber and I’m pleased. Need the 787B and then I’m not sure what else. Waiting for more events to be honest. A couple new games came out and I basically shelved GT. Only turned it on the buy the Sauber, then went right back to Sniper Elite 5.

Great. I already have the mangusta but put a wide body on it. Need the standard. Also been waiting for the GT40. This is a great week.

We have 34 tracks and only 4 events that pay decently. Why? Also, they are events for only two types of cars: 700PP and 800PP. I'm not asking for new content (cars, tracks), just to release more 30-minute and 1-hour events, with good payouts, with low and high PP cars, on the tracks that already exist in the game!!

I really hope for lower PP events with good payouts but I can't remember when GT last allowed you to earn good money in low PP events

I still have fond memories of N100 at the Nordschleife although I generally avoid slow cars. An endurance event at low PP is just as taxing as at high PP. No reason why the payout should be less.

Ah, here's my car for that N100 event, was epic fun

 

[TechnoIsLove]

I think my used car dealer went out of business 🤣

Also, lol at PD for the new prices 🤣 I bought the GTR for 10M and the road version is now 20M 🫣

 

[Doncarlone]

I dont use only one car. I do tokyo wtc 600p with 4 cars. Gtr, nsx, dp100 and f50 and I want to increase this number.
But what I want know is if mclaren f1 is actually useful or nothing more than a money sink.

Thing is, when Gordon Murray talks about it, doesn’t seem that special. To me, it’s funny, I can make the time to afford it, but I’m choosing not to and now, it doesn’t seem that special or I guess, a necessity, to me. Having second thoughts about the 917 as well. Choices, in this game of simulating real life(prices).

 

[gambleboyen]

Gah, I have 14 mil now, and I doubt I'll buy any of these two. I probably will get to the 18M mark befor the 917K disappears. But so much for just one car, mmh, not feeling it.
