Toyota Supra RZ '97!

Yes!

All Racing and Le Man cars, and everything else mentioned above.

Actually I'd like ALL of them to be premium but I know that's not happening anytime soon. :/

- Lancia Delta HF Integrale Rally Car
- Ford RS200 Rally Car

YES. And the convertible version too.
 
Knowing PD, they'll likely give priority to the hundreds of Yaris's/Suzuki's/Atenza's/Subaru 360's :irked:

:scared: how true... and don´t forget the 75 skylines...

At least they should convert some DTM cars, more muscle cars and a few old timer...
 
That Impreza looks like it wasn't completed. In fact, some of the others don't look to great either.

The video was from early Gran tuismo game, actually the first GT game on the PS3. But it looks better then a standard car

They look like extra shiny cars. With a little thinking, take away the shiny-ness and you get Tokyo Xtreme Racer Drift 2 graphics. Very odd...
 
add to list...

mitsubishi 3000GT (all versions)
subaru impreza (all versions)
toyota celica (all versions)
and more...

ohh and that ugly old FORMULA GT, better if they make a new FORMULA GT with a look like actual F1 models...
 
PS3 sends that data to servers and car actually driven are logged and clearly visible to all. So that statistic is a doable thing.

But I don't think Yamauchi-san will follow that line. If upgrade will be set with GT5 DLCs, he will whip his designers to upgrade cars he likes. After all, we are all in his big dream, which mostly I like, rather than in the Sony business and customer's thoughts ;)

My 2 cents are for fresh DLC new cars, not standard upgrades.
Do you think is better a new Reventon or an upgraded Countach25th?
 
Any new standards to pemiums would be welcome from me at this point. Just one thing, if it has to be older Japanese cars give me some watanabe wheels. And were golden.
 
I was just thinking, since PD promised standards would be upgraded, what cars do you think will make the cut? I personally think any heavily used standard will. Like the Veyron. Thoughts?

For the record Kaz never promised he will upgrade any standards in an update for GT5. It's just a recommendation in the feedback section with a ton of votes.

I honestly dont ever see that happening. If it took 6 years to render 200 (20%)cars as premium, its simple math to figure out how long it will take to do the other 800 (80%).

I would LOVE to see all the cars converted to premium but thats just something that is not going to happen. :indiff:

6 years to render 200 cars? Don't forget about the tracks, gameplay, physics, menu's, music, Tourist Trophy and Gran Turismo PSP.
 
I think "upgraded to premiums" may be a bit of a tall order, but perhaps a higher visual definition may be a more expectable probability. There's no reason that this shouldn't be the case for cars in the standards lineup that already have premium models represented in the game.
They could take the base layer of things like R32, R33 and R34 Skylines for example, which all have premium models, they should be easiest to transfer, as most changes during their release years will be minor facelifts and the engine specs slightly different.
A few visual tweaks and the direct transfer of the driving physics is all this would entail.
Also, given that despite full weight reductions, the cars still retain the stock dashboards, these too could be included. A stock skyline dash from 2002 isn't going to have changed much from a stock dash from 2000, so could also be used for the cockpit view.
Just my opinion, but this could be the best, and quickest, way forward in moving the game's definition to the next level.
 
All LM race cars, JGTC, DTM, and Rally cars.

Really, i would like all the spec racing cars to be made premium.
 
If PD are smart, in the next update they should include something which records how much people use certain cars, combine all the data and voila! You have the most wanted/needed premiums.
 
I want every race car to be premium......i love using cockpit view in the race cars......the crazy steering wheel with the cool buttons....it's just awesome.

It will just be Veyrons, LM cars etc.

Personally, I think the least used cars should get the treatment.

He's said before that in due time some cars will be upgraded.



@ The guy who said what goes into drag racing, a lot more than pressing X. Otherwise your gonna get destroyed.
 
i think purely and intirely out of respect, cars like the Veyron, Supra, Cobra R, Shelby GT350, ZO6 Race car, and jaguar E-Type, are some of the biggest named cars that should be converted.
 
The FGT being standard doesn't even make sense, it's their car, they can make it look like whatever they wanted, it could be like the tardis and have a massive inside if they really wanted to, they don't need to visit a car dealership and take mm by mm measurements.
