The Camaro should be interesting 🤔
Hopefully its gonna be compatible with most of the LS swaps already available (ZR1, Rampage & BRZLS7)
 
The Camaro fits more like a Touring Car Masters New Zealand entry. Similar to the 800 hp Angus Fogg Mustang.

Hello everybody ! I prefer a Clio Williams or The Spyder instead of Captur 👍
Why not a Fuego, the french 924 😂
You'll be wanting the Suggestions forum (the first Clio Williams is in there and has 223 votes, but I can't see one from you) and/or the Wishlist thread.



This thread is about this update.
 
I'm mostly looking foward to the RX7, hopefully it will have some cool customization options like Evo 8/9.
And would be really nice if we can remove those sideskirts and bumpers from Camaro, I just can't stand those modern-looking aero parts on classic cars, they look so out of place.
As for Captur... it's kinda funny, when I bought my ND Roadster I thought "hey, finally a car I own irl is also in GT", since it was silly to think my other car would ever show up. But now the chances of my '08 Renault Symbol appearing in the game as well significantly went up.
 
I have tried reverse image searching on that Camaro, and I have seen none completely related to it; save for the color, of course.
 
This Camaro looks more like a personal project than anything related to a real racing or tuner model. I'm not really impressed by these grafted modern parts on it.

They may have run out of new modelised cars in stock for a full update and ended up with this.
 
Gotta say, I really like that PD made a new original modification. Always liked the original Gr.3/4s for that reason, and the racing modification cars. Good way to get content out of existing licences/models if it's true that the content pool is a bit dry and they don't have a new car ready for a 3rd car.
 
Is this the smallest content update we ever got for GT7?
It’ll probably be fairly standard. Engine swaps as well as tweaks and other fixes, enhancements etc. are only ever detailed in the update notes.
Edit. Just noted 4 new events, so definitely not the smallest ever.

Isn't this the second time since the F1500T-A that everyone got the silhouette quiz wrong?
The name "Race-Mod" for that Camaro is probably a modern interpretation of the racing modifications from previous games.
 
hi



’69 Chevrolet Camaro Race-Mod

supercharged V8 producing 657.8 bhp.


’91 Mazda ɛ̃fini RX-7 Type R (FD)

Output rose to 251.5 bhp and 30.0 kgfm of torque

’21 Renault Captur S Edition TCe 140

Powertrain options vary by market and trim level, ranging from 1.0‑ and 1.3‑litre turbocharged petrol engines to diesel and hybrid variants. Notably, the Captur became Renault’s first plug‑in hybrid with the E‑TECH PHEV, drawing on hybrid expertise developed in Formula 1 to deliver smooth, quiet, and efficient performance through electric motor assistance.

Everyone?

Our final car of the trio is pretty obviously a classic Chevrolet Camaro, but dragging any more precision than that out of it is tricky. There’s been several Camaro models over the course of the Gran Turismo series, most of which are possible candidates without even considering other variants.

About all we can rule out is the 1969 Z28, as it’s already in the game. It could be another regular, roadgoing sibling in the SS 350 as seen last in GT6, or something considerably wilder. We know that the now-defunct GT Awards from SEMA have been in PD’s mind recently (even if the recent HPA TT hint was a false dawn), and there’s a candidate among the winners there: the Stielow Red Devil from 2010.

Alternatively we’ve seen some suggestions that maybe it could be the return of an “RM” model. These were the equivalents to the original PlayStation 1 titles’ race-modified cars in GT5 and GT6, essentially comprising stripped-out variants of road cars. The recent Power Pack DLC included six relatively similar vehicles, so it would be interesting to see if this expands to the base game too.
And plenty of people in this thread suggested it could be an updated RM.


The one that foxed just about everyone was the Suzuki Vision GT.
 
Interestingly the Renault Captur is a 6 speed manual, and being the TCE 140 it's pretty much the most driver-centric a Captur can realistically get.

That should mean it has some decent upgrade potential like the Mazda CX30 and Toyota RAV 4. I'm praying for some utterly heinous aerodynamic parts, like the Honda CRV...
 
I can't help but think they could've ported all of the RM cars from GT6 knowing they were high quality as their own racing mod pack for a couple quid with some specific races and called it a day.

Hell, throw some racing interiors into a few more new models too and I'd say we'd all have been happy enough.
 
I am curious to try that Camaro restorace-mod, do you think ot will drive like the GT5 Camaro RM or like the SEMA Maverick??🤔🤔
