the new Gran Turismo is out in a few weeks, and of the 1031 cars in the game, 7 are FGTs:

213 S Ford Ford GT '02
214 S Ford Ford GT '05
215 P Ford Ford GT '06
216 S Ford Ford GT LM Race Car
217 S Ford Ford GT LM Race Car Spec II
218 P Ford Ford GT LM Spec II Test Car
219 S Ford GT40 Race Car '69

sweet.
 
I looked at the car list and it's pretty ridiculous. It's a major Japan fest. I mean really, there are 18 versions of the S2000, 22 versions of the Miata, 40 versions of the Nissan Skyline. I'll still buy it just so I can drive around a video game Ford GT.

I dont see the Heffner tt option on any of those!
I guess one with Nitrous would be out of the question?:biggrin
 
I saw an interview with the Japanese guy who is in charge of making Gran Turismo, he said he believed the the new GT was the most beautiful car ever made. The reporter even came back with, but what about the 599 or the Enzo. The Gran Turismo guy's eyes glossed over and he went into the diatribe about the curves and power... he was 100% right of course. I suspect that is why you see so many GTs in that game.
 
Includes: GT40, XJ13 & XJR-9 :banana

No Porsches per se, (apparently a licensing issue?) but several Rufs. Would have liked a Shelby Daytona Coupe, too.

I'll still buy it though!! :thumbsup

They could keep pushing back dates, like Duke Nukem Forever that was supposed to be out in 1998... :rofl

and no GT5 thread is complete without Kazunori Yamauchi labeling them up for us :thumbsup

Paid the game off today!

Your missing one by the way, the 67' GT-40 MK IV is also in the game. I'm guessing the 69' GT-40 is a MK I ran by one of the privateers?
 
Gran Turisom has no inside the car views right?
 
I saw an interview where the main dude said he own's a red Ford GT.

This is Kazunori's, lead of Polyphony or the developer of Gran Turismo, Ford GT and Skyline GT-R racing each other on the track.

No it does, still not completely sure on whether or not the standard cars have them however.

Fast forward to 13:30. They use the GT in this ultra long review. It DOES have in car view. I'll go get it later today.
 
I bought it and was surprised to find that you can use the GT, and you can get it in any of the OEM combos. All the right colors, stripe delete, side stripe only. Wish they had the BBS wheels too. The cockpit view is great. Might have to get a wheel setup.
