I liked it when they used to reveal new cars during live event races, but the downside was the impact on racing. Unless it was a one make series, having a grid of road cars including new unknown ones was bad for drivers even if it was exciting for us watching the race.

Maybe with the new VGT Lambo they will do what they did with the Jaguar VGT and do some races in it at a live event, or maybe not given how the second one went...
 
Quite honestly, I wish they gave these VGT cars a rest. I'm not in the least bit interested in some fictitious 'future' cars that may or may not have any bearing on real life.
It's just a way of increasing the overall car count. Like Infiniti and Chapparal. Take the VGTs out of the equation and you got nothing from those two brands. Same with Fittipaldi. Many others have just one real life model too.
Seems like such a waste of resources...

Thats fair but lets take the Ford GT90 as an example its not real yet its loved by many shoulden't appear in another game game because of that? . Plus Gran Turismo has a big history of fictional cars since the first game.

I think one of the problems they have is that most of them don't have actual interiors.

There is an massive difference between a one off concept car that was immiediately shuffled off into the constructor's museum after doing the auto show circuit, or into a private collection, that has a fully working engine and transmission, and a full interior, and vehicles that, for most of the program's life, only exist within the game and if there is a model, is pretty much a non-running model with no interior.

Come on.

Also, the Ford GT90 is very much real. It definitely was a real, running concept that signified Ford's New Edge design philosophy of the late 90's and early 2000's. So yeah, using it to make the vast majority of VGT's look better isn't that great.

a single difference from the Fittipaldi VGT to the rest of these cars "VGT" in Gt Sport, which is the owner Emerson fittipaldi confirmed a "limited lot" that does NOT exceed 39 units from his factory.
what makes the car real to take to the streets!

Pretty Sure the Audi E-Tron VGT is also an actual running car, it even did demo laps at several formula E events.

Correct as far as i know the
Audi
Bugatti
Mercedes
Fittipaldi
VW VGT's are funcional and some of the others could be functional easily.
 
Famine
To an extent. And to a lesser extent than the Bugatti Vision GT, which has now sold to two different private owners.

Much rather drive something that actually runs, as opposed to a body shell.
