....I don't think they mind..
Is that Kaz?
 
Oh mad what a spot!
Though Kaz having a model of a Lotus Esprit Turbo is far from a guarantee of one being added to the actual game, it's of note that it's a different Esprit that was included in the old datamine list:
* esprit_v8_02
Not that the old datamine list contained all of the cars that have been added in updates, nor is it likely that all of the ones in the list will arrive at some point.
Just an interesting observation I thought I'd mention.

Evidently Kaz still has an interest in Lotus, even despite the licensing issues.

Let's play "guess the car"

UPD: it's a Mangusta

He created many interesting cars:

The cars he designed in the 70's and 80's all looked very similar didn't they?

This guy asked an e-Motorsports staff in the HRC, whether GT7 will have the GT500 NSX / Civic, and the staff said they've been on the waiting list for about a year.
They (or does he mean many manufacturers?; unclear in this tweet) want their cars to get a chair in Gran Turismo, so PDI has been really busy.

This is a bit of an old post from a few pages back, but it's been playing around in my mind a bit because I'm very curious what being on the PD waiting list entails.

Waiting list to agree licensing terms? Waiting list to get cars scanned? Waiting list to get the cars models developed post-scan? Waiting list to get the completed models added in-game (okay, that one's way too optimistic)? I feel like I'd believe any of those except the last one.

Too busy scanning Kangoo and Unimog :D

Now that you bring this up, it makes me curious as to how much is there just to get one car in alone (nevermind say three to six) and then what is it in that process that makes this line rather huge.
 
A video of the last great GT game


Have you tried GT4 Spec II and GT2 Project A-Spec? The latter adds cars that modders built and they usually look as if they were part of the game if not often better while Spec II adds new events and features. Old GTs gettin' some lovin'!

They're both the most definitive ways to play their respective games to me. I mean, I'm still going to play the base game of GT2 & 4, but god I love playing those mods.

and the best part with those is that it's only the beginning of GT modding. There's going to be more fun ways to play classic GT games down the road, I know that for certain.
 
Lol, I rarely use my car horn in any race. It's only necessary for getting some of those pesky A.I. out of the way.
 

So Genesis just revealed their real world LMDh car in New York, and they had a Gran Turismo rig there.

It should be noted that the car used for it was the VGT Gr.1, and not the real car on some kind of special/early build.
Whether the real car gets added in the future or not is unknown.

Also if I recall correctly Genesis aren't an "official partner" of the GT World Series anymore. Only Toyota & Mazda are now, as far as car manufacturers are concerned.
