The 458 Italia hasn't either (for example)
It doesn't?

Sure looks like it does.. even the air intakes for the engine lead to those two vents at the very back of the car...

So the Infiniti should some vents like those to prove that it is mid-engined. Perhaps in those areas around the buldge just before the rear?


Well that was a straight-forward answer... :lol: But I guess after the wacky world of the Chaparral 2X, this seems to look tamer than a elderly people Bingo championship. Man, GM may have raised the bar too high for anyone to touch, eh?

I dont see them, only those small holes at the very back, and they got past the engine so...

It just looks a lot like the Toyota to me.

Really? I, personally, think it has more Mercedes than Toyota. The round shapes, the "long bonnet\hood" (if you speak England's English or 'Murican english :lol:), it just feels it's more in line with the Merc. Boomerangue wing aside, of course. The rear is more Nissan-esque, because of the splitter, and the front might be the same minus Infiniti's own grille (how will it look on this car?).

Just the overall shape of the car. I can't really explain it. I do agree about the mercedes/nissan features but it just gave me the impression of the Toyota without the aero parts

It's okay if you can't quite explain it, being a mesh of several things can confuse many. All in all, I say I'm liking what I'm seeing. Yes, it lacks some originality behind it, but the design looks less outrageous (and therefore more elegant) than the Nissan's. Fits Infiniti's design identity, if anything.
 
I'm waiting for a car maker to totally delete the rear window in a GT road car. Who will be the Pioneer?

I think Mercedes already pulled this off with their VGT
 
I wish PD would bring in more real cars instead of these generic prototype shells around a generic prototype drive
Well what says they aren't going to? GT6 isnt done with dlc, obviously. Everyone knew about the vgt project, yet now every time one is teased we get the same comments... "wheres muh e30, LaFerrari, premium mkiv supra..." Its nice that those cars are important, but then these threads turn into the usual arguments and complaints about "real cars". As for this VGT, I think its got the best shape so far. Looking forward to it. Imo the vgt cars are not a generic shape. The Subaru looks nothing like the BMW. The Mercedes looks different to the VW, etc.

GM already did that, the 2X has no such thing as a rear window. Not with its Laser engine at the rear, where can you possibly have the space for one in the first place?

And @trustjab pretty much nailed this whole "VGT suckz, gimme mah E30 hurr durr" argument. VGT's are PD's idea, they are not going to stop just because a few people hate them. And we don't know if those cars you want so much won't show up or not, unless you work for PD and can tell us how the car choosing process goes. It's okay to wish for a specific car, but please don't waste your time (and ours) bashing the Vision GT project. Do something more productive.
 
They did say that more normal dealership cars were coming. I don't see the fuss about VGTs, which if we remember, we were throwing a fit about back when the only ones that were in the game were the Mercedes and HURR DURR PD Y U NO ADD VGTS and then here we are complaining that we're actually getting the machines on a regular-ish schedule.

So it's either complaining about them not existing or them existing. Why do people do this? If I am going to complain about GT6, I'd rather focus on more important issues at hand. I don't know, perhaps the lack of game modes or the A.I.? But that's just me, I like to focus on what makes a videogame work rather than the content it has.

From a game standpoint GT6 is leaps and bounds in both design and gameplay. But I've already delved in that before so I prefer to just have fun with the ingredients I can use freely (Cars and Tracks) to just drive.

I'm very hyped for December.

GT(not meaning Gran Turismo game)It's not a GT road car. The closest road car would be a Countach or many mid engine cars with a slat for a rear window. I'm talking about no window at all in a proper GT road car. A real world production road car by a manufacturer. Was the PD Citroen produced or just a one off promotion?

I think only one running example exists.
