But even though this is a one car deal, while I'm at it I may as well throw up the CTS-V sedan.

EDIT:
Also, could anyone tell me what this is?

Thats the new Ultima Aero 2
 
Some awesome choices people. But almost everyone is wrong :sly:

(If this offends anyone please tell me so I can edit it out)

It's made in a factory full of fat men :trouble: that only speak hillbilly, and have a large collection of plastic cars, but unlike most other American cars, this one has a small engine, and it is located in the middle. The Chrysler ME Four Twelve, the hypercar that never lived, 850 HP, 400 KM/H, 0-100 in 2.9 seconds and it weighs 1310 KG, all from a 600 cc engine, but with 4 turbochargers :drool: :drool: :drool: only problem being turbo lag, but who cares, what's not to like, please PD, ADD THIS CAR!!!
 
Chevy Cobalt. Both the Supercharged and Turbocharged versions. That car debuted right around when GT4 came out. Its was replaced by the Cruze for 2011. This car was born and then killed between GT4 and GT5's releases, and they couldn't include it? It was one of the best off-the-lot handling sport compacts in recent years. And also one of the fastest (if not THE fastest) cars for under 25k.

It was made to directly compete with the SRT-4 (both versions), as well as the Mazdaspeed 3 and others in that genre. (on that note, the MS3 isn't in the game either)

So many cars i wish they'd include....

EDIT-

I gotta agree with the CTS-V as well. That car has been out for years with multiple models. It directly competes (and keeps up with) the German heavyweights in that class.

GT has always been lacking in European cars. Where is my pug 1.9 gti? Proper r5 turbo? Or even the escort rs turbo?

These are definitely important to car history.

If it has to be one car...

Any of the powerful Capris.. 2.8i or the carbed 2.9 and 3.0.
 
Ouch that is a hard one. I will go for the new Koeniggsegg Agera, but the newest Zonda Huayra and old original BMW M3 is close. Or an Ariel Atom ?! Maybe a Gumpert Apollo? Or an Ascari A10, maybe even something as vulgar as a Porsche GT3RS. Or a Red Bull 2010 F1 car? That would be brilliant. Or a McLaren MP4-4?
Oh wait... just one car wasn't it?
Then i have to go for a Lada Riva.... .
 
Either

Ford Sierra RS500 Cosworth

or

BMW E30 M3

... or maybe

Ford Escort Mk. II RS1800

Agree, good choice and explains your avatar picture I guess. ;)

My choice, not a particular model (I personally prefer the older models like the Silver Shadow but the modern "drugdealer" Phantom or new more elegant Silver Ghost would be fine too) and I'll try to explain why.

The GT-series prides itself in being a virtual car encyclopedia and emphasises being a driving simulator foremost.
Rolls-Royce is a hugely famous and iconic brand as synonymous with the ultimate luxury car as Ferrari is synonymous (for most that is, there are many other brands ofcourse that do too) with the ultimate sports/racing cars.
Yep, it isn't a brand associated or particularly suited for racing but there are already many cars in GT5 where the same argument could apply.
Another reason is that like driving a Ferrari, Lamborghini or Aston, etc. remains limited to driving them in a videogame for me (and most others I guess), so does driving a Rolls-Royce or any horribly expensive car.

I'm not even a huge Rolls-Royce aficionado but as a petrolhead interested in a hugely eclectic variety of cars and brands I'm really curious to experience driving a Roller, even if only in a videogame.
Licensing wouldn't be that difficult I reckon being part of BMW (with BMW itself and Mini already included) and I think this iconic brand deserves to be represented.
It'll add to the variety too, not that many similar types of car (or any right now) are included although I'm sure to be in a minority when I wish for this brand to be brought in.....

It would be nice. I want to see all of automotive history represented, including not-to-sporting cars. That said, the new Ghost is quick in its own right.
