[Talon16]

I think this is the latest one - don't use X so found it elsewhere

Thanks. Looks like GTEngine's info but it's odd as they don't update their site with it... at least for a while.

They're in your Garage/Gifts, as usual.

YEah but when do we get them?

 

[Old_Setzer]

Annnnnd, because PD do the mileage(kilometre) history thing with Used and Legendary cars, the kilometers of the Citroen BX are 1919km. That was the year and get this, month of June of 1919, when Citroën made its first car, the Type A.

Love this type of trivia. As always, PD's attention to details is great.

Today. They are (present tense) in your Garage/Gifts, as usual:

I feel a bit bad for the Suzuki looking at that - every other bad car got buffed but it.

The mud flaps on the Lancia are a must!

Even though I’ll only ever see them in replays

Gran Turismo 7 Update 1.60 Now Available: New Cars, Engine Swaps, Races, and More​

The latest Gran Turismo 7 game update, 1.60, is now available for all PlayStation 4 and 5, bringing new content after a six-week break along with some other changes too...

Bit of a typo in here @Famine
"GT Sophy also has also"
Couldn't decide which was the correct place to put it grammatically so you went with both?

I recently'ish decided to try and turn as many quirky vehicles (i.e non rally/non AWD vehicles) into competitive off-road variants. Everything from 1938 classics to modern FWD's, and I have been having so much fun. Many of them have been WAY better than I thought possible (such as the little Renault R8, and the mk1 VW GTI). Those pickups you mentioned are stupid quick, and the Jimny's are perfect for a tight rally course. I just don't get all the hate for the rally physics. I've been playing rally titles for over 30 years, and most all of the techniques apply just fine in GT7. The only thing that I can see an issue with is some of the jump physics. Even after they were massively improved (Update 1.49) they could be further tweaked, if I'm being honest. Still I can't imagine not finding THIS fun:




I wish we had more tracks, some point to point, and rally time trials against SOPHY (So, closer to a real rally stage format), but I'm having a lot of fun with what we have.

You should give the C8 a shot. It's a ton of fun off road.

Doesn't look like the cars from the previous update are compatible with sophy. That means waiting another month to my 2000 Le Mans enjoy custom grid :/

 

[jmsbrydon]

Lots of colors.

I may of just not looked hard enough as I've only recently bought the game, but how can you view all the manufacturer colours for a car from the UCD?

I could be wrong but I think if you upload a livery without changing the base colour the car came with, and no obstructing decals, you can visualize what the car would look like with the other colours it comes with in-game in the preview.

 

[Johnny Caisse]

Just noticed, the Gr. B rally event at Colorado Springs has shortcut penalties but I can't think of where there'd be such a thing on this track. ...or is it related to punting other cars? I have no idea. Edit: Or is it for wall-rolling?

 

[Rockonen]

I'm trying to recreate the BX GTI. The front bumper and rear spoiler can be bought from GT Auto. But the engine... is the only way to buy some stuff from the tuning shop to match 158bhp/160PS. Or is there any engine swaps similar to the 1.9 Gti 16v?

No engine swaps for the BX yet. The new swaps are in the article.

There may be in the future, but not right now.

Besides the cars this update it feels stale of content

 

[Voodoovaj]

Yes, SUPER disappointing. I was looking forward to putting together a custom Sophy race with the Carry. I did a normal custom race, but playing with the normal custom races is like punching yourself in the face (painful, unproductive, and no fun whatsoever).

Here's my quick update review:

All in all, a VERY disappointing update. I normally dislike the extra menus and this update brings a perfect example of why I hate them. You have to spend over 20mil credits to get the cars, and the reward for doing so is a ticket where, if you're lucky, you might get 1 million credits back. This reminds me of the painfully bad decision of making credit burn the central focus of the game's player progression. 👎

The Citroen - It's cheap so it gets a pass. 👍

The Lancia - This could have been GT Auto additions to the Lancia we already have. But, again, not that bad in terms of credit burn and it drives ok. Might be worthwhile doing a custom race when (if) it gets Sophy support. 👍

The 2008 - Well...I think my feelings are already clear on this. Of all the possible Peugeot (just Peugeot) additions, this is the worst possible choice they could have made. the 3008 was car of the year. They have an e-208. They have (fill in this space with anything that is not the 2008). This addition is more salt in the SUV wound. Can we stop now? PLEASE? 👎👎 (it's doubly bad)

Alsace get Sophy - Another questionable choice. Daytona? Fuji? The Nurb GP layout? Kyoto? GOODWOOD???? It's a bad choice given the options. And, remember, the PS4 folks don't have Sophy at all👎

Speaking of Sophy, the aforementioned lack of additional cars that can be used by Sophy. I have said this countless times, custom Sophy races are currently the best feature in this game, despite the effort to build and balance a race. Not adding ONE car is weak (even though they added Alsace)👎


Given the impact of recent updates, this update will be memorable for it's disappointment. So, I give it a -5 out of 10

 

[Bendough]

Wow, the Lancia drives absolutely amazing. You can throw that little bastard into any corner and it will stick. I don’t think I’ve ever put in so many laps in an online time trial

 

[SoulSilvera]

Call me mad, but I actually like the Peugeot. Give it a tune (240 BHP) with Anti-lag and semi-racing silencer (better than racing, IMO), and Weight Reduction Stage 1, and the cars feels (and sounds) great.

Then again, I enjoy driving a stock Prius in GT7... maybe I am crazy.

Yup , this is sexy as hell 🤟 thanks for the great work on the liveries community 🍻

 

[SSfox]

If they lazy to add new tracks at least add new races in other tracks like trial montain or deep forest that gives good money like Sardegna 800 or Tokyo 600.

This game is incredible, almost perfect. After almost 500h in the biggest issues in this game imo is how unbalanced the rewards are across the races.

Incidentally I did get 1 million for completing the Merc ticket - but I already had the merc.

I’m only 3 cars short of them all (don’t talk to me about the Porsche book)

Sophy seems to be a really slow learner. How long will it take until she's able to drive every car around every track under all conditions? 2 more years or so?

 

[Zero2Oblivion]

After spending weeks grinding La Sarthe for the McLaren F1, I have absolutely no interest in grinding it again for another menu book completion.

PD need to balance the economy.

I just noticed a quite annoying bug. I play on ps5 pro with RT ON and pssr ON. I am driving the 2008 at wilow spring event and for some reason starting from lap 2, the 2 mirrors start to become blurry when until lap one they ar perfectly clear. I need to try with other cars or combo. I do not know if it everywhere or just with the 2008 or at willow spring. Here the picture:

I may just do that. Thanks for the heads up.

Probably a bug. We had an issue with the mirror of a car already a while ago. Was then fixed in the next update.
How is your overall impression with PSSR after this update?
For me it looks better.
