this car was sold by 52 Million Dollars.

Yet, the most expensive car Ferrari sold / sells is the Enzo (I think).
You're right, but in any case the Reventón description is obsolete.

They are limited to the info they had when they decided to put the Reventon in the game.The Veneno came after :)
 
Interesting that you use this argument. The market wouldn't put a 20 million dollar price tag on a Ford GT40, or a $182,000 price tag on an old Countach. And since all of those prices are identical to their GT5 values, I'm guessing we'll be able to see hundreds of mid-1990s Japanese cars being sold for the same price as their new equivalents; even though GT4 had much better pricing in that respect as well.

A Ford GT40 would very rarely be out on the market, so unless you want to wait another decade for it to possibly appear at an auction, you might just have to be prepared to offer a bit more.

Yes, of course, I'm a troublemaker sometimes. :D

About the Ferrari, the most expensive one I think is the LaFerrari (1,2ml €), if we consider also the non-homologated cars the first place goes to the FXX (1,5ml €).
 
Yes. But the LaFerrari isn't on the roads yet and it's to recent. I think that even the 599XX is more expensive than the Enzo.
 

And did it actually sell for that? I'm guessing no, but even if it did it's not particularly indicative of much when the average is about 3/5ths that.

It just so happens that the record for a GT40 was set just last year. It was fully restored to the original spec, was a multiple race winner, was owned by Steve McQueen, and was used as the camera car for the movie Le Mans. It was even the sole remaining sister Mirage chassis to the one in all of the GT games. All told, a really good yardstick to measure the value of the car in the GT series.

It went for exactly half what the car in GT5 cost.



This is not real life, those prices are not reflective of any real-world currency.

If you didn't realise yet, it doesn't have a $ sign in front of it.

If they are completely arbitrary, that doesn't make it better; since that only means that PD could balance it to the gameplay but purposely didn't.

It might seem overpriced but who cares?

If you really want it, you'll save up for it.

The people who bought GT5 and proceeded to do laps around Indy for days on end to be able to afford anything before PD started giving away millions of dollars for chasing a rabbit for 3 laps probably care.


Or the people who just stopped playing the game entirely before PD did the little band aid about a year later.

All reasonable except for the Miura.

But this is yet another indication to me that GT6 is just GT5 with a new GUI and some slight improvements graphically.

Very disappointing.
That your personal opinion. I don't fell gt6 will be gt5.5 as i see other call it just cus the Miura cost the same as gt5.

One can obviously tell that there is no currency molded after for GT. However, one can speculate and compare between these prices, and real world prices. We can most likely assume and speculate the US dollar is one, with minor inflation due to its the "lingua Franca" for currencies and trade. However, I am not saying it is the dollar, only that it is closest to its level of inflation.

However, the prototype cars and award and legacy cars we have, that is out of the question as to why so much. No one here could define why unless they got inside stuff we don't. I should've saved the rest if your quote, because sometimes things need to be a little bit out of reach and an actual challenge to obtain.

The only prices I recall that should've been changed, were mostly all of the OCD.. But I haven't been on GT for a lomg time, so stone me on that..
 
I'm assuming that (unlike the Stealth/Chromlines in GT5) you'll be able to buy as many as you desire, but only if you got the code from the 15th Anniversary Edition.
 
Ok wait a minute... so the 15th anniversary cars are going to be avaialble to everyone? I thought it was preorder only :irked:
Those are prices of the base cars, I believe.
Remember, these are normal cars (available to anyone) but with a fancy livery and some mods(pre-order exclusives)
 
I just hope they fix the price on '07 Mustang GT

$48,500 in GT5 when it was really $26,875. But yet the '05 is the Correct price very confusing PD.

"The most expensive Lamborghini ever..."

Reventon '08: Cr. 1,210,000

Miura P400 Bertone Prototype CN.0706 '67" Cr. 15,000,000

What kind of logic is this?

One word "Prototype" nuff said, you can buy a Reventon today if you got the $ and contacts. You cannot but the Miura Proto, note even if you are the Sultan of Brunei you cannot get your mits on this thing, hence the price tag

Dude I already got corrected man.
 
There is nothing wrong with having some of those cars prices at 10-20 million, they have sold for that in real life so no biggie.

My issue with GT5 was the 20mil cap on credits, if they do a cap this time around it needs to be at least double the price of the most expensive car in the game.
 
I wish the cars price was either the original price adjusted for inflation or the actual market price whichever is greater. If the value is not known then make it expensive:)
 
High priced cars wouldn't be so bad in gt5 if it was easier to earn money.

I know special events can get you like what? 4 million? but 4 million doesnt = 15million

And for anyone who wants to tell me an easy and fast way of earning money is seasonal events... what solution do you have for people like me who don't have online to do those said events?

Doing 5 laps around indy in a RM ZR1 grinding for money is not a fun way of earning 15million credits.

why not just focus on enjoying driving instead?, you don't have to earn enough money to buy the car you want in 5 mins, it beats the whole purpose of it being rare.
 
A Ferrari 330 P4 sold at auction for $12.1M, a Ford GT Race Car for $11M, a Shelby Daytona Coupe for $8.3M, and numerous other vintage racing cars that go for between 10 and 20 million dollars. As much as you may not like it, I think the prices are somewhat justifiable and accurate.

Would you say it's GT 5.5 or perhaps the worst game ever? :lol:

You don't like the car prices, so naturally GT6 is just GT5? That's good comedy. :lol:

Who actually cares that they don't cost the same as in RL? Are you really that anal? Besides they are priced in "credits" not dollars. I'm sure PD has better things to do than to research and provide ultra research realistic car prices. Maybe you should take into consideration that it's a 0 miles Miura prototype. :lol:

It does matter to the game some cars that would be a performance bargain and now expensive. Plus when you put simulator in a games description you would hope for a bit of reality. How long would it take to research the price a few minutes per car?

This question has already been answered. The argument also isn't that they don't cost exactly as they do in real life as it is they don't cost what they should in relation to other cars (usually by being wildly inflated, but not always) when many cars in the game are roughly correlated to their real life prices.


Besides they are priced in "credits" not dollars. I'm sure PD has better things to do than to research and provide ultra research realistic car prices.

And they apparently didn't have better things to do when they gave GT4 and prior a more balanced economy?


Maybe you should take into consideration that it's a 0 miles Miura prototype. :lol:

So does it correlate to dollars or not? Because if it doesn't, then that point is irrelevant (which it already would be close to in real life anyway, since quality and recentness of the restoration is typically far more important than the original miles).

It doesn't, but some people seem to think it does. Just pointing out different things. :)

I thought it was a driving simulator, not a car buying simulator. :lol:

It is but buying cars is a big part of the game, right? Like I said previously the car price does have a effect on that game especially when you do start out. What is interesting is the English versions are credits but isn't the Japanese GT games have prices in yen?

I believe this is the third time I am having to explain this. We all know that the currency in GT is called the credit. There is no real world currency to explain the exact similarities of it to any other. However, in this case it is okay to assume/speculate that the credit is compared to that if the dollar, euro, or even the pound, as most car prices vary 1.5 to 0.9 +/- percent off.

The credit is not an exact correlation to the dollar or any other previously listed currency. There is no solid proof where it is related. If you want, call it a moon rock, or even a leaf. I don't care what it is called, and neither do 99% of others, but the prices are most similar to that of the above currencies.

Not sure how many times I'm going to have to use the word assume and speculation..

GT currency/economy =/= real world currency/economy.
I'm sure there's a reason the prices are what they are.

That's true. Only a 100% margin of error, after all.
I'm with you but what if next week someone paid $12m for a miura P?
Until that $52m GTO was sold, the highest price was what, $20-$30m?
I think PD's mistake was pricing some cars close to what their real life prices are making oddly priced cars, well, oddly priced.
For all we know they have some algorithm that came up with those prices for them.
