I do want the C63 AMG . Hopefully we can also get the E190 Evo (we have the E30 M3, so why not get its direct competitors from those years)

 

[GTracer25]

In my opinion, the January update will arrive towards the end of the month (25,26,27 ...)
this could be positive because we could receive more cars (9/12 cars) or something else special. All this of course is my opinion

 

[Nielsen]

I don’t care when the update comes, but I’d really like to see the teaser silhouettes this week. Life always feels so dull on January 1st, so the sooner the better.

 

[Z01D]

What if the next update, updated Group 3 and 4?

Reckon would be something like this.

Lotus Evora GT4

Ginetta G55 GT4

KTM XBOW GT4

SIN R1 GT4

Maseratti GT MC GT4

Mclaren 570s gt4

Alpine A110 GT4

Nah, that would be way too many new models & licenses to the series.

 

[05XR8]

Missing the AMG GT GT4. You know PD can't resist multiple cars in one category.

 

[VXR]

It would be nice to get something along the lines of the Opel Insignia GSI or Audi S3 saloon. Just something like the Atenza but a bit more performance focused. There's a great deal of variety in the game, but there are still niches to fill.

 

[Stephan]

Highly doubt that those cars that ZO1D mentioned (except the McLaren) would be added considering what Kaz mentioned before in a interview which is this.

GTP: Are there any more manufacturers coming to the FIA Championship?

KY: I don’t think that at the present time there’s going to be any additional manufacturers. I think the new GT3 cars that are being released by the manufacturers are something we’re looking at. Like the Nissan GT-R GT3; these cars already have a new model on the road.

Unless I misunderstood on what Kaz said.

 

[Crazy Taylor]

Missing the AMG GT GT4. You know PD can't resist multiple cars in one category.

BMW *cough cough*.

 

[jagenigma]

Well, its January, and we haven't heard a word about any update. Maybe they're going back to end of the month for updates?

 

[Stephan]

BMW *cough cough*.

Add Audi to that as well with about 4 Gr.1 cars in the grid (if they add the R10, then that's 5 entries now).

 

[Quakebass]

Boi.

The month just started.

Y’all need to chill with that.

 

[queleuleu]

That stuff must be saved for the next game.

I'm so grateful for all these free updates but I would gladly pay for a proper new GT in December 2019 (tuning, career mode...). More tracks and cars are cool, though it will never be the GT that I used to love without some key features and original GT tracks.

 

[RaY29rus]

On second thought, I can see how the new Supra can be the only car in January update, so it will be highlighted, just like Racing Concept.

 

[MIE1992]

Given that Tokyo Expressway got a new layout, that leaves the following original courses to obtain new layouts:
Alsace
Colorado Springs
Sardegna

I'd tentatively include the Northern Isle and Broad Bean, as we did see new layouts with Blue Moon Bay, but I'm not as sure. Whereas those other three courses I listed follow the same "naming" format as the other areas that've obtained new layouts, e.g. Dragon Trail. Meanwhile, Fisherman's Ranch does not have a similarly specific subtitle, so I don't think we'll see a new layout for that one. On top of that, I'd wager that if Colorado Spring or Sardegna get a new layout, it could coincide with more Gr.B cars, especially since some automakers known for real-world Group B cars are conspicuously absent from this group, even if their respective cars appeared in prior GT games, such as with Peugeot and Renault.

(Ideally, I'd like to see additional layouts for the real-world courses, too, even if the variants aren't new to the series, like Nurburgring GP/D, or the 80's version of Fuji, but it'd especially be awesome if we got new-to-GT layouts like the "little Monza," the Le Mans Bugatti Circuit, or maybe the much longer version of Spa. But I digress.)

On a side note, the MiEx should've updated this morning - anything interesting show up? Even some OEM paints?

EDIT: I also heard that the made-for-game race cars, like the Alfa Romeo 4C Gr.3, took a lot more effort to make on part of PD, and that they'd rather focus on integrating real-world race cars between the two of them, so take that for what you will. That said, I think we could potentially see older made-for-game race cars be put into Gr.3/Gr.4/etc. like the RM & Touring Cars from the PS3-era games, or even remade versions of the older LM Race Cars like from the PS2-era games. (Though I'm unsure if race cars based on cars that were concepts at the time but were later mass-produced - such as with the 2001 Nissan GT-R Concept, or the concept versions of the Nissan 350Z & Mazda RX-8 - should be left in the past or not...)

 

[RACECAR]

Missing the AMG GT GT4. You know PD can't resist multiple cars in one category.

If that happens, it would finally make racing a Mercedes in GR.4 worth trying.

 

[GTracer25]

For this 2019 I expect a rally track with the snow and the rain , and for me any car is ok

 

[JensC]

I think that it's not entirely unthinkable that the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia is either in the next update, or the next again (february update).

 

[CrimsonKing]

My predictions are 1 track, some cars and a lot of whining.

👍

 

[RSoDtheVirus]

Does classic tracks come back on GT sport?

 

[dimassa19]

Does classic tracks come back on GT sport?

Even though it's not the main focus for GT Sport, I think it will come... a few...

 

[05XR8]

PD do surprises very well. They'll introduce something we didn't see coming. Fun times ahead.

 

[AudiMan2011]

I predict:

Not Spa
More street cars
1 or 2 actually useful racing cars for leagues

 

[ScottPuss20]

My predictions are 1 track, some cars and a lot of whining.

Yep, that happens all the time

 

[StealthVel]

I expect 1 track, 10 cars, along with some other features such as new GT League events, and an angry SirCreepsAlott in the comment section of videos on the update.
