I sold it when I moved to Manhattan last summer, but I used to have a 2008 Pontiac G8 GT

There is no reason this car shouldn't have been in the game.

Powerful: 361 HP in GT trim, 415 in GXP trim
Maneuverable: 50/50 balance, .94g on the skid
Beautiful: One of the sexiest cars GM ever made, seriously.

1993 Ford Probe GT

Not my current car anymore, unfortunately I drove it so hard the front suspension slowly self destructed. I loved that car immensely. For FWD that car handled amazing and had plenty of power stock. Although I did do the KLZE engine and trans swap =D

My current car is a 1997 Audi A4 Quattro but they have the 98 S4 in the game, just wish they would make it premium.
 
E30 BMW (Any proper racing game should be ashamed of not having the E30!)
First Generation Integra 86-89 (Love these darn things)
2nd Gen Toyota Cressida (Drift)
A Premium 240z (Because I love the car & the classic interior)
Early 90's Sentra SE-R (Popular Auto-Xer)
VW Corrado (As before mentioned by others)
More old Datsuns (BC I'm a Datsun/Nissan whore)
 
My 2010 Chevy HHR SS with GM installed Stage 1 kit.
4 cyl, 2.0l Turbocharged Ecotec. 290HP/315lbft
Before production, Chevy tuned/ran them around the Nordschleife. I really wanted to see what it would do in game with stage 3/etc. The game needs some Ecotec turbo love in it.

I'd second them including the 325i Sport. I'd vote that over the M3 because it's a more common real world car and a very popular choice as a track slag/starter drift car.

They also seem to have become as rare as hens teeth the last few months. Maybe they've all been written off in the cold weather.
 
Maxima:

Any generation, but the 3rd is considered the "4DSC" and the 4th has the most potential to be the fastest, currently there are two people in the 10's, which is not too shabby for a front wheel drive 4 door grocery getter.

I don't know why they never put it in the GT games. For what its worth, I have a 4th gen with a number of modifications.
 
Honda FN2 Civic Type R
Why? Because its my personal car and I'd love to drive its nuts off in GT5 =D
And its got one of if not the sweetest 6 speed gearbox and 2 litre NA engine ever produced.. It's such a screamer and it feels very frantic.
I can't escape the fact that its not the fastest car on the road, nor it be the best car to tackle the twisties or tracks.. But i do know for sure that it feels so darn good to drive, and it always puts a smile on my face everytime I drive it. Even on a short drive to the shops.
Pics to follow...

Ford Fiesta ST 5th gen (2002–2008) Fantastic car to drive on a track... plus i own one

Holden Commodore VE with HSV variants
Ford Falcon FG with FPV variants . I own a BA (was in GT4 as the FPV f6 Typhoon and GT)
 
Meh, a couple of my toys are in the game. 1st-gen & 2nd-gen CRXs. Thankfully, my daily beater (Dodge Durango) isn't. ;)
 
My '07 Acura RL
Let's see:
300 hp naturally aspirated engine........... check
Super Handling All Wheel Drive................check
Paddle Shifters .................................. check
Acura's flagship sedan.......................... check

BMW 5 series, Mercedes E class, Audi A6...Bring It On!!!
 
A Lotus Exige S would have been nice.
Because I own Z06's and GT3's at the track with it :)


Porsche make and Lambo Superleggera too
I love the dynamics of GT5 but lets face it... Out of the 1000 cars most of them suck! How many Miata's make up that list??? 20?? Forza still kills it for the cars and car sounds. GT5 kills it for the handling and detail.
 
2010-11 VW Golf GTI. (plus the R) :)
I have a 2010 GTI, they have the older model Ver V, guess those 5 or 6 years of development prevented the later model from getting in. :(
Though there ARE still plenty of 2009-2010 models from other makers...
 
I drive a Tacoma and I wish it wasn't in the game. But then mine's a Pre-Runner not the X-Runner.
 
My current car a 05/06 Honda Civic Vtx much the same as Type R but better front grille, would be cool to have as a premium

as the gearbox is on the dash and that is different to most cars on the market so would look different to most cars

So again, i would like to see my 18ooccm Passat(B3) Gt G60 Synchro station Wagon.
Why? Because:
- very few were made ( dont gave the exact numbers but i think less than 5000)
- the G 60 was a kind of a supercharger ( not usual around the Turbo era in europe)
- synchro, means visco clutch (if there is slip on the wheels power will be led to the other not in use.) non permanent 4 wd designed in cooperation with Porsche.
- looks pretty cool with its front lip for a family car sedan.
- 15" alloys from seebring which are pretty expensive if you have to replace them 
- ohhh yeah 162hp/ 160 bhp and 225 Nm/ 166 ft-lb in the tax class of an 1800 ccm (108,7 cu) car
- even if rudimentary, it has a 5 step boardcomputer for oil temp water... Remember it is a 90's family sedan
- and handles pretty good for a 1330 kg car
- pretty much this car is the father of what would become the Audi Rs4
This qualifies the car to be implemented, because it is an exotic using unique rare technical inventions. And by the way it sounds awesome even stock without air intake or a special exhaust. A thrusty i car that was in the family fir 21 years now, 2 persons learned to drive on it, never parked in a garage and it still works fine. (even though time left its marks the last 3 years. Still got driven nearly every Day. And still gives a Headache to a lot of old gti drivers and some of the BMW

Sorry for the long post but i think that my old trusty race work Mule deserves to get some credit passed the 300000 km mark not bad for an 1800 ccm ( 108,7 cu)

I have a three door BMW 123d M Sport, the twin turbo one around 205BHP. Would like it in the game so that I can teach my other half how the hell to drive it without losing the back end!
 
My current day to day car is a 2007 FPV F6 Typhoon. 350hp, 6 piston Brembo brakes, 19 inch rims, leather interior. GT4 had an earlier model, but with smaller wheels and brakes. My wife takes the kids to school in it, it is so easy to drive, but also does a 12.8 sec 1/4, hits the 250kph limiter in 4th in no time at all with 2 gears left, and outhandles almost anything on the road. My big disappointment with GT5 was that it didn't make it in the game.

My current project is putting a fully blueprinted 351C into a GQ patrol. Would have been nice in GT5 to see it own the SUV race.
 
I have a Passat R36 saloon, and before I saw the car list I was quite hopeful they'd put at least the estate version in, but I was denied.

It's got the power to be in the game, but maybe not the handling. I just want to give it a good blast round the ring, because I'm too scared to go there in real life in case I break it...
 
I've got an Audi S5 that I'm very proud of and I was definitely hoping this would have been in the game. There is a 'Nuvolari' concept in the used car dealership that was the prototype for the S5 but it's not the same and it is a bit low-res and has an unrealistic 600 bhp. I didn't bother buying it.

Certainly the S5 is more interesting than most of the regular road cars that they've given us, and with 350 bhp it would be good enough to keep you going until you buy your first Ferrari. It's also a bit more 'hairy-chested' than a TT (which is for hairdressers and air hostesses) and a bit more stylish than an Impreza, so I think it would get a lot of use in the game.

I second that its disappointing the Audi S5 is not in the game. I adore the looks of that car. Also because of its nice interior, like most Audis. Would ve been a nice premium. RS5 would have been even better, of course.

I drive a A3 TDI Sportsback. Would have loved to see it of course, but they didnt even bother to upgrade the standard A3 3,2 2003 model that they had in GT4 already to the facelifted version. :guilty:
 
91-95 Acura Legend sedan or coupe-they were the flagship car of acura and they are great cars.

76 Triumph TR6- It's a freaking classic britsh sports car
 
Me too i somehow hoped to see the 850 t5r volvo in game. It really is an awesome car. A skame it is not in game!! It did compete in the itc damn it. Loved it in Toca touring game.
 
they have a C5 Z06, so a vert wouldnt be too hard to add....

doubt they will add an escalade to the game, its probably more suited to Vice City carrying hookers around.... :)
