Reading posts online it's clear there are many things PD gets right with a lot of cars, and I'm happy with the overall driving experience. Driving GT7 cars and comparing them to real-world reviews (using mostly Evo, but also others) shows many of the models match up with what reviewers expressed showing there is good attention to detail.
For the most part....
I was surprised how well the French hot hatches differed to each other and ranked similar to contemporary reviews. Some cars in GT7, however, don't seem to match their real world counterparts at all, at least according to other drivers' opinions. The first one I noticed was the Clio V6, which seems a LOT more benign in GT7 compared to IRL reviews. This week I drove the BAC Mono, and after looking at the museum (?) thing in Brand Central and seeing how many lap records it took expected a great driving track car. What it is instead is pretty meh, and doesn't inspire confidence at all leading to some pretty slow times (relatively). It could be my driving style, but something about it feels off like the Clio V6.
Are there any other examples of PD missing the mark by a mile?
