I don't like the fact that none of the GC8 imprezas got remodeled, but I like that PD at least fixed the jagged textures on them. Here's my Type R Sti:
"Standards" the good, the bad and the ugly

>quite a few standards get improved to near premium textures
>still complain about one car almost no one cares about nor uses
Hey guys, he's right. Let's not focus too much on a single car that looks like a turd. Let's focus on something else. Like hundreds of other cars that have not been improved.
As for the few improved standards, let's call them polished turds.

Subscribed. Are there any standards that have working reverse lights and wipers and aero kits like the Mazda MX-5? Been trying to find more for my collection

Or they could choose not to bite off more then they can chew if it looks half assed. I mean what a concept too bad the rest of the world has to live by it but not certain game devs that have legions of fans willing to fight hand over fist for PD to keep not giving us best quality work.

Good: the Karmann Ghia looks good. Will post pics later this week in my gallery.
The Interesting: the FTO Super Touring Car has...well, it has PART of an interior. You can see some of the roll cage and make out the entire steering wheel, but...yeah. Fun car though. Used it to win the Apricot Hill Endurance. But, yeah. Just...you have to see the interior. It is almost as if someone simply didn't turn on the light in the interior.

It's not just the texture quality. Cars from GT4 or that have been just barely touched up still have what is commonly called "baked shading". Baked shading are shadows, lighting effects, etc that are faked (or more commonly, precalculated) with textures instead of actually rendered in real-time with the game's 3d engine. Since those cars are from the PS2 era, they also typically have generally bad textures, with visibly dithered half tones and in general a "pixel painted" quality, but it's not always the case.
Other cars still have GT4 textures, but also have visible improvements in modeling or details (for example visible panel gaps) to some extent. They clearly have been retouched a way or another, but not as much as the best examples. How would you call these cars?
For me, there are 3 categories:
Premium
Semi-premium
Standard
A standard that has hideous textures isn't a semi-premium.
It must be (almost) perfect. For example, Mazda efini RX-7 ou Audi S4 isn't semi-premium but standard
Semi-standard or semi-semi-premium, it doesn't exist for me
I will show pictures later

I don't think it's fair to put Standard cars straight from GT4/GTPSP (direct ports, for all intents and purposes) and retouched/cleaned Standard cars in the same category. Even just the addition of 3d (normal mapped?) panel gaps and cleaned edges boosts significantly their appearance during gameplay/photomode/replay.
