Now that PD announced Spec III and the DLC I guess it's safe to say that GT7 will stay relevant and keep receiving updates while the next GT game is still far away.

So I wonder, how many more GT-Rs will be added to the game in the future?

If I did count correctly we have currently 19 GT-Rs in the game, with #20, the Mine's, coming soon.

So, what you think, how many more are they going to add?
 
Think one of the older R35 models is likely, then I wouldn't discount a random tuner variant cropping up at some point in the future again.

Don't think we'd see more than that though - if we end up with more Skylines I want them to start being non GTR variants.

I hope all of them will be added.
 
More than likely these will be added in the next 2 years
1995 Nismo R33 LM
2009 R35 GT-R Spec V
2024 Nissan Italdesign GT-R50

Most people don't understand how much the japanese love GT-Rs
 
Public/PD staff: Do we have enough GTR's ingame???

KAZ: No!! More, moreeee puuuuwaaa!!!

I think we’re still missing at least a few, to be honest.

Nismo Skyline GT-R LM Road Going Version
Nissan GT-R ‘07
Nissan GT-R50 by Italdesign

This, of course, is not counting GT-R models from outside of Nissan/Nismo, like the Mine’s R34 that’s coming.

That said, beyond the four I’ve mentioned here, I can’t really think of any other GT-Rs that stick out. Though come to think of it, that 40th anniversary model from Autech seems really cool, too, given that it’s a four-door R33 GT-R. I also do agree with another poster in saying that we should get more Skylines that don’t necessarily have the GT-R badging. One notable example was that first-gen model that was designed by Giovanni Michelotti, which appeared in GT4/5/6.

I'll plump for two.

The original R35 seems inevitable, and as a Japanese developer I don't know how long PD will be able to resist the early '90s Group A R32.

Definitely have to disagree with the people saying 5+; that would imply the game is getting regular content updates through most of 2027 which I don't think it will.

That really rather depends on what you're calling a GT-R and why.

GT-R is a model name that has only existed since 2007. There are ten such cars in the game, but only really four of them are actually derivatives of the same type: the 2017 base, 2017 NISMO, the 2024 Premium, and the Safety Car. You could include the Gr.4 and Gr.B as they're broadly the same as the road cars with some tweaking.

The two GT3 cars are GT-Rs in name and with some - but not many - original parts. However the two GT500s are GT-Rs in name only, and amount to silhouette racers. That leaves the other Nissan car called GT-R, which is the ill-fated 2015 Le Mans car and about as closely related to the rest of them as Steve Guttenberg is to a cactus.

If you want to include Skyline GT-Rs, that's a different matter; GT-R was just a specification of Skyline at that point. Nonetheless, there are seven Skyline GT-R models, including the 1971 and 1973 cars, two R32s, an R33, and an R34. The seventh is another GT500 which, due to the regulations of the day, is more closely related to the R34 road car but in a similar vein the GT3s: it's got the name and basic shell, but there's not really much of the "GT-R" left in it.

Derivative models are highly tricky. The NISMO 400R is, for example, kind of a Skyline GT-R (in that it's based on an R33, uses quite a lot of the same engineering and tech just tweaked to 11, and is recognisably a GT-R) but it is absolutely not called either a Skyline or a GT-R. The Z-Tune is similar - not a Skyline, but a GT-R - except muddier because it's built from pre-used Skyline GT-Rs.

If all that matters is counting up the cars called Skyline/GT-R/Skyline GT-R and cars that look like them, from Nissan and tuner brands (so as to exclude the Mercedes-AMG GT R), there's 22 at the moment. There's two Skylines that aren't also GT-Rs - because Nissan didn't use that badge at that time - in the shape of the R30 Group 5 and the R31 GTS-R - so that would take you down to 20.

To get to 19 the obvious one to exclude is the GT-R LM NISMO LMP1-H car, but if you're doing that it's inconsistent not to exclude the 2008/2016 GT500 cars too. They definitely do look more like the R35 road car, but there's nothing left of it and nothing shared, so that's 17. But then you're left with the same argument with the two GT3s and 1999 GT500, which do share some bits but barely any and a handful respectively. So... 14 - but only if you include the 400R (which isn't called Skyline or GT-R) and Z-Tune (which is called GT-R but not Skyline, even though it's based on a Skyline GT-R).

I don't want more GT-Rs - I want more non-GT-R Skylines. Some from the R30 generation, some more R31s, RWD R32/33/34s (in both 2 and 4 door styles).

The R30 and R31 4-doors and even the wagons; the R33 GTS, R34 GS25, even the C210, all of them

Quite, but the question is about "how many more GT-Rs". If we want to start wishlisting - and especially if we want to start wishlisting cars that are not GT-Rs, we've got two places to post those already. One of which is an entire subforum.
 
@Famine : Haha, I'm usually the type of guy who also thinks (too much?) about things like that. And because of this I took the easy route and let PD decide. So I just counted all Nissans that are called GT-R in the game. And I didn't include the GTS-R.

BTW, my reasoning for voting for 2 was because I have a feeling that PD themselves are maybe thinking that they have overdone it a little bit already.
Anyway, I'm curious to see if we get more GT-Rs or Civics in the future🙂

-edit- No, wait, that's not true. The 400R isn't called GT-R in the game - but it clearly is a GT-R🧐

@Famine Noted, I went in auto mode and didn't realized it was a wishlist :ouch:

And on topic with the question and the clarification about the definition of a GT-R; well is tricky then. The Mine's is coming and OP defined it as a GT-R (I guess because it's an R34 GT-R based car) then of course there are other models that could be added in the future be it in GT7 or GT8 like the Tommy Kaira R-Z for example. So my revised answer is yes, I believe some will be added based on the still big popularity of the Skyline itself
 
I voted for 2, since I agree with those mentioning the R33 GT-R LM and the '07 R35 GT-R. The LM would fit that "returning classic" vibe and the '07 R35 has been on the datamine list and would fit the "generation gap filler" archetype.

Skimming past GT car lists, I don't see any others that stand out (although the 4-door Autech GT-R would sure be cool!).
