Finally!!! Different cars! Rocha’s G37 looks like an animal waiting to cathch prey! Still wish the track was something besides R246. Next month or 2 should reveal more…I hope.
That made my day… Tired of the same r246 though. PD is definetly up to something in the track department,i hope that new F1 track in ABU DAHBI is in the game….
I dont know the specifications of the Tuned Audi TT, but i can see in one picture an Amuse S2000 and behind a Corvette i guess a tuned Corvette or a ZR1 so i assume the TT is similar in Horse Power and performance as the the other two.
in picture 13, the one with the viper just behind the TT, you can see commercials from Bentley and Maserati, can’t see wich Bentley but it’s a 4doors, and the Maserati is the quattroporte. I think this alittle hint. finally we start to get some info….
@gt911
the corvette is most likely the zr1. The tuned gran turismo version has a splitter on the front.
People need to stop getting their hopes too high over the whole livery editor, customization, track editor stuff. They’re just going to be broken hearted in the end
the detail in the backgrounds is insane…pic 3 with the matt black G37 just look at the detail in the building windows in the background to see for ur self..WOW!
@MC959
Those bentley and maserati ads are there in real life. check google maps street view, it is clearly shown there. In fact, if you go and view inside the windows of the building the ad is on, it is in fact a maserati dealership.
I agree about the track editor. I just can’t see a way to dumb it down enough for the average user plus, it would take an enormous amount of memory to process that sort of thing.
I must disagree about the livery editor thing though, With most every decent racing game including one and online racing being so big, I think it’s an absolute must in order to set your car apart from the others. Also, all the race clubs will shurely want team graphics in order to further their reputations.
I really hope that there’s something in GT5 about JR Rocha, it really is a tragedy.
(for those of you who don’t know, the owner of the G37 died of a heart attack, he left his wife and kids (around 6 i believe))
damn we surly gotta neat game coming there.
look at the detailing, Kw sticker on tt bumber, the flag is crystal clear. damn
Is there a difference on the intercooler texture on the blue (pic 4) and the red one or is it just the lightning?
The hoses on the intercooler are to cool the ic down by nos? Option available on the game ? Overheating motors in game ?? Engine failures??
Would be cool if are car breaks down just in front of you. I remember when it happend the first time in gtr.
THANK YOU KAZ for bringing us such a game. Can’t wait
Domo Mister arigato
damn why do we have to wait for so long and not get this gamen this Christmass, sigh… I want it so bad and i really fighthing the temptation to buy forza 3
Wow, I can’t believe how good the cars look on screenshots. Uber-realistic is the word. I can only imagine how amazing they look in motion. How can you not worship programmers that create such work?
regarding decals, livery editor has nothing to do with it, its just a skin/texture on the 3d model. One reason could be its not cleard with Cusco since its theirs…
Holy cow, these pictures are great. Nice to see custom cars in the game.
But in my opinion, the G37 is out of date…too much “Fast&Furious”-style. Today, the trend goes more toward to respectable, reservedly, luxury tuning and not the change into such plastic dishes.
So, the Audi is the better car in my opinion.
But the graphics of GT5 is outstanding and Forza3 is no opponent
the graphics look amazing, i dont mean this in a bad way, but id rather see more Race cars than all these tuner cars, the majority of them aren’t particularly good to drive because as we know, unless its a drift car, the handling comes as more of an afterthought.
I’m hoping they bring back all the past JGCT cars from GT2, loved the variety of JGTC cars that GT2 had
Raj, you’ve got to be kidding me. Handling as an afterthought? Maybe if you’re stuck back in 2001 with Dom Toretto and Brian O’Connor. Besides that, drift cars aren’t meant to grip around a track. They’re supposed to slide controllably. And by NO means is this the fastest way around a track.
On topic, I hope that this is showing how in depth we will all be able to tune and modify the cars rather than just how the ‘concept by gt’ cars are in GT5P. If this is actually how in depth the tuning will be, I will never play another game again after GT5 comes out.
I really looking forward to get a copy in my hands, going to buy a secondhand car an defeat all AI challengers!! :D Then I buy a Toyota Supra :p, and then It will be just like playing GT the first time, can’t wait…
By the way the damage system, I really hope it has a plus, else hopefully they will release a patch for more cars. But damage isn’t important for this game, but its a plus, and plusses makes better gameplay
I agree completely. While I love the way tuner cars look, nothing compares to a fully bred race machine. After playing GTR2 and the whole Race07 ensemble (STCC, WTCC, the works), nothing really compares to taking those things for a spin.
Everybody is worried about damage and and other feauteres that aren’t that essential to racing. What about tracks? Nobody is talking about it and nobody is putting any pressure.
Tons ofTracks are one of the things we should expect from GT5, if blu rays have as much as 10 times more capacity than DVDs we should expect ten times more tracks!!!
That is what we REAL racing and gran turismo fans want. Real gran turismo fans play a lot and get tired of the same tracks.
We should put pressure, so the franchise puts more tracks, specially real life tracks!
That photo is actually AFTER we took off the livery. The car has been repainted and looks completely different now! It’s at SEMA right now under Seibon.
Have you got some insider GT news we haven't covered yet? Let us know! Submit news here and we'll tell the world (and give you full credit, of course!).

November 3rd, 2009 at 3:40 pm
Wow nice red car
November 3rd, 2009 at 3:42 pm
Woooow, NAICE
November 3rd, 2009 at 3:42 pm
@Jordan are these the sema show winners of gt5?
November 3rd, 2009 at 3:45 pm
Finally!!! Different cars! Rocha’s G37 looks like an animal waiting to cathch prey! Still wish the track was something besides R246. Next month or 2 should reveal more…I hope.
November 3rd, 2009 at 3:45 pm
Cool,cool,cool,cool
Let’s hope for some good videos too
November 3rd, 2009 at 3:46 pm
In the picture of the TT (the one with the black background) you can see the driver’s face…
November 3rd, 2009 at 3:49 pm
damn…..looks amazing
November 3rd, 2009 at 3:50 pm
i hope he picks something classy this year for the award
November 3rd, 2009 at 3:56 pm
Wonder why they chose not to use the graphics that are on the side of the g37
November 3rd, 2009 at 3:57 pm
BADASS!!!
November 3rd, 2009 at 4:01 pm
quote circa1990: Wonder why they chose not to use the graphics that are on the side of the g37
Indeed, shame they didn’t used it. Thats what made that car badass.
Probably some trouble with the sponsoring stickers on it? (licenses etc)
November 3rd, 2009 at 4:07 pm
How come the G37 doesn’t have its original livery? The wheels are also some what different. but its still one hot car none the less.
November 3rd, 2009 at 4:17 pm
When i look at these pics, i dont care about damage.
Look at these details, and its cool that u can see the intercooler :D
November 3rd, 2009 at 4:23 pm
Insane!!!!!
November 3rd, 2009 at 4:42 pm
Yeah, now I wana see what a LMP car may look like in GT5..
November 3rd, 2009 at 4:50 pm
That made my day… Tired of the same r246 though. PD is definetly up to something in the track department,i hope that new F1 track in ABU DAHBI is in the game….
November 3rd, 2009 at 4:50 pm
the g37 looks bad ass!
November 3rd, 2009 at 4:57 pm
Nice, another great set of pics, we’re not in the dark as we used to be.
But can we get pictures from an other track than Tokyo R246.
November 3rd, 2009 at 5:00 pm
These screen are so good is ridiculous.. nothing comes close. Not even Fora 3 can touch this.
November 3rd, 2009 at 5:06 pm
So what we have is JR Rocha’s G37.
In red.
In blue.
In flat black, with carbon hood.
However, what is missing is the exact replica of Rocha’s G37, specifically, the graphics.
I know there is no factual proof out there, but I believe the reason the graphic system was not depicted on the G37 is simple.
GT5’s livery editor is not ready to be unveiled yet. The clean car void of sponsors tells me it’s coming.
Thoughts?
November 3rd, 2009 at 5:10 pm
Does anyone else think these are the sort off modifications that PD may allow us to do in the game?
Great cars btw.
November 3rd, 2009 at 5:23 pm
That really looks incredible! That TT looks so amazing real!
November 3rd, 2009 at 5:34 pm
May be costomization??
November 3rd, 2009 at 5:43 pm
Could be that the G37’s livery isn’t there because the decals JR used are unlicensed by PD.
November 3rd, 2009 at 6:01 pm
@ Sam_NY
Maybe Porsche bought it… =P
I’m not much of an Audi guy, but this TT is a great improvement over the old model. However, the 370Z is much niecer.
November 3rd, 2009 at 6:03 pm
I dont know the specifications of the Tuned Audi TT, but i can see in one picture an Amuse S2000 and behind a Corvette i guess a tuned Corvette or a ZR1 so i assume the TT is similar in Horse Power and performance as the the other two.
November 3rd, 2009 at 6:04 pm
I wonder if Yamauchi like the style of Chip Foose, that guy is a master modifing cars.
November 3rd, 2009 at 6:19 pm
wowwww they look so real and amazing but one problem of those picture they are still runing on the same track. i want to see more tracks in gt5 please
November 3rd, 2009 at 6:30 pm
Hope the final game has the G37 with the original livery. Would be a nice tribute to JR Rocha.
I’m hoping that after Sema 09, PD starts to show more cars of the game. I want to see the DTM’s and also other racing series.
November 3rd, 2009 at 6:43 pm
in picture 13, the one with the viper just behind the TT, you can see commercials from Bentley and Maserati, can’t see wich Bentley but it’s a 4doors, and the Maserati is the quattroporte. I think this alittle hint. finally we start to get some info….

MC959, It looks like a flying spur..
November 3rd, 2009 at 6:56 pm
You have a point Zenith, Plenty of bad ass cars and plenty of colors will do,Oh and plenty of tuning options are all i need.
November 3rd, 2009 at 7:20 pm
KICKASS RIDES, drooooooll
November 3rd, 2009 at 7:40 pm
the detail in the backgrounds is insane…pic 3 with the matt black G37 just look at the detail in the building windows in the background to see for ur self..WOW!

November 3rd, 2009 at 8:06 pm
I now have full confidence in the fact that Tokyo is the only track included in GT5.
November 3rd, 2009 at 8:25 pm
Daaaaamn, I hope they sound as good as they look!
November 3rd, 2009 at 9:33 pm
Watevaman, seriously, GTFO the internets.
November 3rd, 2009 at 10:00 pm
Sweet!
And haha at Tokyo track again. I bet some people are going to die over this ^_^

And yeah I too have noticed that Rocha’s G37 doesn’t have it’s livery.
What’s up with the no vinyls and decals, PD?
=D
November 4th, 2009 at 12:15 am
I guess the positive and negative camber effect feature is in! That’s way better than tire flex. LOL
Picture 1 and 5.
November 4th, 2009 at 12:21 am

Amazing screenshots,but Tokyo track again.Please,one new ingame GT5 trailer!I wait 5 years this game..
November 4th, 2009 at 8:35 am
well well Tokyo again….
November 4th, 2009 at 10:18 am
So in GT5, you can drive around all the streets in Tokyo
just kidding.
November 4th, 2009 at 10:38 am
PD should make a spin off of GT, called GT ;) Gran Touring, where you can drive all over Tokyo, free roam :)
November 4th, 2009 at 11:14 am
the graphics look amazing, i dont mean this in a bad way, but id rather see more Race cars than all these tuner cars, the majority of them aren’t particularly good to drive because as we know, unless its a drift car, the handling comes as more of an afterthought.

November 4th, 2009 at 11:47 am
Fuckin amazing! These pics made my day…
November 4th, 2009 at 12:14 pm
wow, I just googled the word gran turismo, and GTplanet came up before gran turismo.com!

these graphics leave forza 3 to shame…
the interior models of gt5 are MULTIPLE steps above the quality in forza
November 4th, 2009 at 6:07 pm
@Raj
I agree completely. While I love the way tuner cars look, nothing compares to a fully bred race machine. After playing GTR2 and the whole Race07 ensemble (STCC, WTCC, the works), nothing really compares to taking those things for a spin.

TRACKS!!! TRACKS!!! TRACKS!!! TRACKS!!!
