What cities need to be featured?

Because I live half an hour away from them I would say Minneapolis, St. Paul, Mendota Heights or Lakeville
Minneapolis for the massive buildings and the street circuit feel. St. Paul because is tis more open and flowing. Mendota Heights because I want to race past my school: St. Thomas Academy and Lakeville as there are some great roads here.
On a more serious note Los Angeles or Auckland, New Zealand would he awesome especially if they had the city as well as their major airports.
 
Isle Of White! Such a fantastic road that goes around the whole island, could be awesome to use as a endurance race.
 
I don't care what city a fictional circuit is based in, so long as the track design is good.

PD have focused too much on including landmarks in their city circuits just for the sake of including landmarks, and it compromises the quality of the tracks, in my opinion.

Exactly the problem! Focus on good design of racing course, the result will come.
(the better the track will be, the more players will enjoy it and the city will get some positive attention. - how many players drives London track in GT5?)

Other extreme could be the case of Prague in Forza 5. They comletely created like half of the track. Where in real life is just park with trees.
 
I don't think so. Part of what makes racing games great is the fact that they take you around the world. So racing is not only competitive and realistic, but also scenic.

I don't see a problem with having racetracks situated around the world. I have a problem with poor circuit designs stemming from the designers putting more priority on landmarks than actually selecting good roads. Having a racing circuit like London isn't close to realistic either.

There are a lot of beautiful, diverse and picturesque towns and cities around the world that are guaranteed to have great roads for racing. But we sure haven't seen them in the last few iterations of GT.

Exactly the problem! Focus on good design of racing course, the result will come.

I find it especially frustrating because so many circuits from GT1 and 2 were amazing, and the quality of fictional tracks since then has very much gone downhill.
 
What about Jakarta.........










..........Sorry

PD also created the eiger nordwand tracks and its just a bunch of hills and sidewalks in real life. Search for the comparation GT5 vs Real.
