Would be cool, but I am not sure if PS5 (not even questioning on PS4 lol) could handle more of 1 car with the highest LOD at the same time (even with 1 car the console seems to struggle šŸ˜… specially if you move the camera or zoom too fast)
Probably, but maybe it wouldn’t be bad ā€œwalkingā€ through the aisle. Select the car and it acts like it does now.
 
I really like the car viewer but I hope its scope is significantly expanded in future updates. We can all think of a million features we would add if we could.
To be honest I can literally only think of an actual photo option ala Scapes and an interior camera. I don't think there's anything else they could feasibly add.

They're not going to add doors opening etc. because they haven't modelled anything you can't see.

Even if they just added new locations over time, and the ability to tilt the camera, I would be stoked.
 
I'm stealing @PettyWingman 's thunder for a bit by making a gif comparison between the RX-Vision GT3 cars, this time using the newly–added Car Viewer feature.



​

A real shame the GT3 Evo only comes in one colour; it's really flat and really clashes with the design of the RX-Vision IMO. A car like that needs metallic paint to really show off, and it truly comes alive in Soul Red Crystal. Unfortunately, I do lose the carbon finish on the rear wing and bonnet... lip... thing by painting the GT3 Evo.

Also, the GT3 Evo comes with no tyre stickers by default, and yet, when selecting the "Default" option in the livery editor for the tyre stickers, it puts Michelin stickers on, way after GT's partnership with Michelin ended. Was expecting Dunlop stickers, not gonna lie!

I'll be honest, this first part of the update has done little to increase my playing time. I bought 4 cars (the Ferrari, the Civic, the minivan whats-its-name and the 2CV, and I'm not interested in the Xiaomi or the Mazda. And why do they keep putting the Jimny in the weekly events rotation?

I noticed very low frame rates/stutter when doing a custom race at SUGO circuit, but only in the first half of the track.
I was racing with a stock Delta Integrale on PS5 slim. Never experienced before playing on other tracks. Anyone else had the same issue?
 
My assumptions for the December update are:
  • Daihatsu Midget – Meme car
  • Nissan R390 GT1 – Frequently requested by fans
  • BMW M5 – Confirmed
  • Weird Japanese SUV/Van – Family car
  • BMW M4 GT3 / Ford Mustang GT3 / Toyota GR GT3 – GT3 car
  • BMW M4 / Ford Mustang Dark Horse / Toyota GR GT – Road car
I doubt the last two will be the GR , since Polyphony Digital always admire concept cars.

I had quite some framerate problems on my previous fat PS5 non-pro while racing with a lot of AI cars. Especially in rain.

Spa has always done it on the PS4.

This updates massively extended the issue. I'm getting stutter on the main menu now ffs
 
Can't wait to play a game with three different "next evolution" of Sophies deployed sparsely here and there.
 
Did it mention somewhere that a new seasonal menu appeared yesterday?

No, but we were very much expecting that:

GTPlanet
Gran Turismo 7 Update 1.72: New Seasonal Menu
The regular Seasonal Menu is also available, and we reckon you’re going to want to check back shortly for another one as well.

These require you to collect cars added in the update, within a short window of just 17 days, and this time there’s only three you’ll need: the Mazda, the Xiaomi, and the Honda Step WGN.

That leaves three others, of course, which we’re expecting to form a second Seasonal Menu before the Part 2 update in December.

Gonna take a swing (and a miss) with the final six cars for Spec IV

Ruf CTR Yellowbird
Chevy Camaro SS '02
Nissan GTR '07 (yeah I know we have a lot of them, but the 20th anniversary of that car is approaching)
Ford Mustang GTD '25
BMW M4 Competition '20
Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR-LMH '25


I don't think the GT500's will show up in spec iv, but instead I believe it should get its own update similar to the Hypercars back in June.

Also as far as the Toyota GR GT and it's GT3 counterpart is concerned, depending on circumstances and by circumstances I mean how long would Forza have exclusivity rights to the car, I think it would come in maybe 2027 and maybe in January of 27, but again this is just me speculating.

And finally regarding the M4 GT3, I personally think it'll come in 27 and I don't think PD would want to bloat Spec IV with a quarter of the cars being BMW, but who knows.
Honestly looking back at this, especially since we know the M5 is confirmed for PT 2, I think we'll get some form of an open wheel formula car, especially since we usually get one every year since GT7 came out. Probably replace the predictions of the Mustang GTD and Valkyrie LMH if I'm being honest, but I feel confident in the other cars coming out for PT 2 next month.
