The plate says "X17 HMC" which is probably made from Korea.

That's a UK plate:
X (year 2000)
17 (a prestigious low number)
Hyundai
Motor
Corporation
Hyundai's rally team in those days was run by UK-based Motorsports Developments.

Even though this car has plates, PD has altered them slightly from the real thing.
Cologne-based TTE used K-AM prefixes in 1995, and the 205 suffix is fictional, probably chosen by PD because the car is an ST205.
 
I don't think not including the licence plates on a car really constitutes the car being modeled incorrectly. The only car I can think of where they did was the Ruf CTR.

Why RUF CTR is incorrectly modeled? Any proofs?

I would disagree on the rally cars, because they run license plates during events, and as such they are part of the livery so to speak.

This is very strange, don't you think? In some rally cars, when we go to dealership, Subaru rally cars plate never have numbers on plate (except the 2008 WRC version) and the Toyota Corolla Rally Car has an number plate censoured (blocked by bar codes).
 
Ford Focus RS 2002 is wrong since Gran Turismo Concept ..then 4 then 5 then 6 :)
It has wrong weight..in game it only weights 1060 kg ,real life is more than 1280

As someone has mentioned before: often these numbers are returned to the general pool, and as such are riding around on someone's personal car these days. This is especially true of the UK plates, which were usually low-number issues, often with the initials of the rally team or car manufacturer. They were no doubt auctioned off for a profit down the line.

In addition, the FIA started cracking down on WRC licensing with the beginning of the exclusive WRC games, and the removal/blurring of the driver names is related to this.
 
Amuse S2000 GT1 Turbo

Garage says 616 hp and 420 ft-lbs but Car Info says 617 hp and 383 ft-lbs...
 
Nissan GT-R SpecV '09

Garage says 493 hp and 448 ft-lbs.

Car info AND dealership say 478 hp and 434 ft-lbs.

Uhhh.....
 
Lotus Elise '00 and Lotus Elise Type 72 '01

Should have 142 hp according to Car Info, but only have 120 hp in Garage.

Lotus Elise 111S '03

Should have 155 hp, only has 153 hp in Garage.

Nismo Fairlady Z S-tune concept by GRANTURISMO (Z33) '02

Car info says 295 hp
Garage says 273

Why is this so hard to get right, PD?!
 
PD should correct this error! I'm not giving a order: I'm asking.

In real life, the ZZS's motor is Fuel-Injected.

Do you have a source? Because I've checked several credible sites that claim four Keihin carbs.
I even found a picture:

The 1992 Mazda RX-7 apparently cannot handle more than 0.000001 gs in a turn, although Road & Track measured it at .94.
 
With regards to the licensing with the Toyota TS030 being patched, I wonder if it is just WEC related. I looked on the Sauber C9 earlier, and that car clearly has all correct FIA / ACO logos and category labels as well - look from the top of the car, outside the door.
 
Audi TT Coupe 3.2 Quattro '03

Dealer says 246 hp
Car info says 246 hp

Garage says 239 hp

He's saying that the car acts like a FF car even though it's labeled as AWD until you install the VCD. It's something that has dogged the car all the way since GT3.
Click to expand...
This is correct. The TT uses the same Haldex system as the 1st generation S3 (on the S3 it's modelled correctly).

Anyway, VCD set to 50:50 is probably the best fix for it.
 
All of the chevy nascars have incorrect modeling on the rear bumper. There are two chevy bowties, right on top of each other. One is just an outline in the body color, and the other does not seem to have any depth. Secondly, the roof camera on the car is strangely embedded in the back bumper.

Some, but not all, Chevrolet NASCAR Race cars do indeed have the double bowtie and camera on the rear bumber/deck lid. Take a look at this pic:

It's all just a matter of PD modeling this specific variant.
 
2000 chevrolet camaro ss is incorrectly modeled in more ways than one. Also it shows in the dealership to have 250 or so pound feet of torque then in garage it shows a more accurate 350 pound feet of torque.
