Volkswagen GTI Supersport Vision Gran Turismo (now available in 1.18 update)

[CTznOfTime]

Another Nth iteration of their "Extreme" Golf...

I knew this was not an April Fool... but i wish it was...

Because not liking re-heated microwaved dish....

I would prefer they do a serious fantastic VGT...

Within the VAG family, i am sure they can spare the resource of at least one intern to do something unique and inspiring... ??

There's still Audi and Lamborghini.

Yes, can't wait for those

Interior or no interior? Place your bets!

Spoiler

I'm going with no interior...

VGT Theory:

Has canopy: No interior
Doesnt: Interior

The third image isn't the VGT2

Sorry for the confusion.
Yes you're right, it isn't.

I did try to separate the images by saying one was of the Design Vision GTI.
But I guess the name of the other car doesn't help with the confusion factor.


For fun, I've since overlayed the new VGT shot with an image of the Design Vision GTI that's directly side-on.
And the roof line does seem much lower.
You can even tell by looking at the 'V' shape created by the panel joints that run from the wheel arch to the roof.
The distance from the inside of the wheel arch to the centre of the 'V' is almost exactly the same as the distance from the centre of the 'V' to the top of the roof.
Apply that ratio to the Design Vision GTI images and the roof needs to be much lower.

But as I've said, perhaps it's all just an illusion because of the angle of the new VGT image.

So the Volkswagen GTI Design Vision was indeed a Vision GT project.

And actually was the first Vision GT project shown, ahead of the Mercedes even.

No it wasn't. If it was, we'd have it in game.

[Thomas__633]

am I the only one that would be happy with a plain Golf GTi, Beetle GSR, Polo GTi, Golf R and Golf R400?

 

[SSQES]

I would too, but that's not the subject of the thread.

 

[Thomas__633]

i know
I just would rather more premiums than VGT's... but that isn't the thread topic

VGTs are premium.

 

[Niku Driver HC]

VGTs are premium.

Only in part, since many lack modeled interiors. So in a way they are more "semi-premium", so to speak.

Also, I know that you want more real cars and whatnot, @Thomas__633, but this is not the thread for suggesting real cars. And PD won't notice your concern here, so it's best to post that someplace else, if you can.

Not the interior thing again....

Premium =/= has an interior.

 

[Niku Driver HC]

Premium =/= has an interior.

Fair enough, I stand corrected. No need to start yet another heated argument over this.

 

[GT5 Level 41]

Do what? Premiums absolutely require a fully modeled interior. Anything less is standard.

 

[Thomas__633]

that's my definition of premium but stop this

 

[GT5 Level 41]

Correctness is always the topic of any thread.

 

[GranTurismo guy]

Correctness is always the topic of any thread.

Too bad you aren't correct.

Premium refers to the detail and polygon count. The premium VGTs were never intended to have an interior as they are simply designs.

 

[R5]

Too all of the above, please go elsewhere.

About the VGT....

I would like to see it have a MR drivetrain instead of FF. It would be like a Clio Sport.

Expect 4WD, as with the last one.

As legacyMACHINE said, while a MR drivetrain would be interesting to have, VW will probably resort to their 4Motion (4WD) system, coupled with the VR6 engine. Just like the VGT Roadster, and I don't believe VW will change their recipe.

Well, we already had an FF and 4WD Golf. Just said itll be interesting to set Renault to their competition by their new drivetrain.

What new drivetrain?

By that logic, only the Chaparral wouldn't have an interior.

Its a faux interior. Supposedly you can see the tirewall and a bit of bonnet but it doesnt and looks like a standard with a HUD slapped on it.

That said, it actually better than nothing at all.

 

[sparkytooth]

It's not a faux interior if that's all the interior the machine actually has.

 

[RACECAR]

Lets be real here: ALL the VGTs cars have interiors, its just the enclosed cars have theirs blacked out. That Toyota FT-1 VGT is the perfect example of this.

 

[TexRex]

Odd, that doesn't sound like either a 4 pot or a 6 cylinder to me...

W12?

I don't think a 4 is at all unlikely. There have been Alfa and Fiat 4s with that sort of aural impact and with only half the likely (2.0L) displacement of a German 4-pot.
