I'd love to see Ebisu. I.watch them sliding on ustream all the time. I want to ride that wall.:)

The closest you could get to Ebisu in GT5 is tokyo kart custom track. The course maker is somewhat stupid but it can make some great tracks. Yesterday I made a track which had the turn almost exactly like the drift stadium D1GP section... Only the turn went right rather than left.
 
Yes I would love some D1 tracks, Odaiba especially.

But I would also love some Formula D tracks, for example New Jersey, Long Beach and Irwindale... Maybe more is to come via DLC or in GT6 especially as Kaz has been talking to Dai Yoshihara and he drove his S13......

I think you may be on to something with Long Beach! I think it is quite a popular track in general (I'm not a racing expert, so can't really determine if it's a "driver's track" or not...), city circuits are always popular amongst GT players, and it would satisfy both grip racers and drifters. Plus, if we're talking about GT6 and beyond, it would be a cool "open city" (similar to the "open" versions of Madrid that have been scene in various GT5 trailers), along with several potential photo locations.

And as much as I would love to see Wall Speedway and Irwindale added to GT, I think it's highly unlikely, as those tracks would really only satisfy drifters (unless some form of grassroots oval racing is added to future GT installments). I think we'd be more likely to see tracks like Road Atlanta (👍) and Miami (👎) added to GT, as they are much more multi-purpose.
 
I think(I know this is GT5 but It would still be fun)Akina from InitialD would be a great addition. or something close to it.
