Carbon hood and custom wings
Ability to preview cars from garage, no need to change first.
Next button on circuit experience
Duplicate and fill all for repeatable pattern for livery
More engine swap available on extreme tuning shop. There should be exclusive from roulette and common from extreme tuning shop
 
The ability to save and reload custom race options.

Once I’ve selected 20 cars and typed in all their drivers names. I’d like to use the same list of cars and drivers again on a new track or new race distance.
I never bother to write drivers names but the other day I randomly got .A Bigot so I tried to put a Confederate flag on the car but they’re banned apparently.

Instant restart for licenses and circuit experience. That camera swoop around the car makes me nauseous (have to look away) and no need for 3, 2, 1 every time.

Invalidate my time / lap in circuit experience but let me finish my run or choose to (instant) restart manually.

For lap attacks, just let me lap until I'm done. Starting over every lap never gets me into the rhythm. In fact just let me drive the course while circuit experience flags off the sectors as I go.

Make wings and spoilers get the car's original color without having to go through the awkward and convoluted livery editor wasting five minutes just to make the car have uniform color.

And instant access to the tuning shop from race events. You realize your car is missing something you need to buy one part, don't make me go exit the event -> world map -> main menu ->Tuning shop -> main menu -> world map -> the event snake with loading screens between all steps.

The option to make the armaco and catch fences invisible. Sainte-Croix especially would be so beautiful to race if you could actually see the lavender, lakes, and trees. 😔
 
  • Filter by number of players in custom lobby list (High to low & low to high)
  • Access to the tuning shop while within custom lobbies so I can tune/buy more tyres etc on the fly
  • Ability to alter custom lobby settings after it's been created, so we can do different races etc without shutting down the lobby.
  • More money for wins in sport mode, 100K for a 40min FIA event is pathetic, it should be 500K minimum & 100-500K for sport mode races depending on which one it is (Wins in Race C should give half a mil)
  • More customisable settings in custom lobbies... I'd like the option to have team racing & be able to select the teams & how many on each team etc to make custom lobbies more fun.
  • Option to detect hardware & only race against others with the same equipment, or at the very least be able to see who is using a wheel/controller
  • More transparency with the Sport Mode statistics like how it was in GTS so we can actually track our ranking numerically on kudosprime
  • Option for Host migration with custom lobbies. As a host I should be able to select who the host will be if I leave, or if not that at least a quick automatic host migration if I leave.
 
Switching tabs on GT Auto, including wheels

Being able to change car in single player race options

Being able to save in single player championships (in between races)

Being able to choose between mixed lobbies or controller only players, but I think there aren't enough players to go around

Being able to check tire and fuel status of others in endurance races

A working weather radar coz mine is **** 🤣
 
How about a true "Quick Race"?

Every five minutes. Give some basic parameters (600pp, 400pp, SS tires, etc). You have 5 minutes to get yourself ready and go. Totally random categories. Random tracks. Random start position. Literally join and go.
Shuffle race mode in sport mode would be ace. Every 15 minutes, 5 minutes to get ready, 10 minute race. Then the next random combo is available to join back to back.
 
Just one pedantic thing with the GR Supra Gr.4/N24: Add the GT Auto roll cage (Type C), considering the interior is still the road car's (again, this is what they noted in post-2019 GR Supra GT Cup survey announcement). After all, the Ford GT LM Race Cars have the road car interior with rollcages added - that could save PD time instead of having to work on a full interior.

How about a blind quick race? They just throw you into a random BOP'd car and track and off you go. You don't know what it is until you're at the starting line in a random position (standing start of course)

Now you're getting closer to the real greatest racing mode of all time... GT5's shuffle mode!
Imagine, once Sport's lobby features are restored and the lag is wiped, you go to look for a room and there's dozens of shuffle lobbies, all spanning different car specs and levels of clean racing. And every race, not only do the cars change, but also the tracks... that would be beautiful.

Personally? I love this idea
 
I would really appreciate it if the head gaskets in any Subaru vehicle had a slight chance to blow up.

I am playing the Real Driving Simulator, after all.
 
Personally for me being able to buy parts from the car settings page which would help when the car I'm using I've forgotten to buy inters and wets for the umpteenth time.

Also the ability to swap between licenses/circuit experience/missions from the track rather than having to back out and change.
 
A shortcut to the garage in the top bar, like the one to buy credits:

Delearships:
1. Being able to see the price difference between the previous and new car prices.
2. Being able to see how long exactly the car will stay in the delearship.
3. Have a pop-up notification everytime you open the game from when theres 5 days of your manufacturer invitation left to remind you.

General:
1. Use the # more effectively. For example #Classic for cars that are from 1979 and older, which we can use for custom races and lobbies, or #GroupC with an 800 PP limit.
2. "Random" setting on custom race opponents should be any car around your PP, instead of racing a Gr.3 car with other Gr.3 cars only (thats what categories are for).
3. Choose the music you want to hear in certain menu's, such as brands central and garage.

Of course I would like to see an online auction with cars and parts, but Im gonna be patient and wait until PD add that, which they have confirmed is coming.

Ah, yes, just what we needed. Another tread about things PD could change. Maybe add a wishlist, some update predictions and a rant about how older GT games are better.

Maybe we could suggest PD something about selling cars. Haven’t read that before.

Ow and lobby’s and lag. Let’s not forget about lobby’s and lag.

You probably spend too much time on this website to lump suggestions, wishlists and complaints into one big umbrella term of "Generic GT complaints". If you actually read the post, its just small QoL suggestions, not lag or selling cars.

But to whom?
I believe no one is going to show up at his work at PD HQ on Monday morning and telling Kaz they should stop doing what they where doing, because he read something a user called CCCC wrote on GTplanet that will change the course of Gran Turismo forever.

So yes, to me it is the same as any other tread with complaints, suggestions, wishlists and random rants about stuff no one at this forum has any controle over.

To other players... to see what they think. So pessimistic man if you dont care about the post then leave it bro. No point in making smart ass, annoying replies to vent your frustrations about players suggesting ideas on a forum. Where else are we supposed to do it?

Maybe it’s because, I don’t feel the need to make treads like this, that I don’t understand them.

I agree with your first post tho.
Good ideas and I think they’re fairly easy to implement.

And yes, you caught me, die hard pessimist over here.
