I thought it would be kinda cool to start a thread where everyone can share their knowledge about gt5, whether it be about cars, tracks, physics, whatever. Here's some to get started:
You cannot add a custom wing to the Honda NSX-R LM Road Car, however you can add one to the Race version.
With enough added height, a fully tuned Audi Pikes Peak can be set up to do barrel rolls.
Due to the way the PP calculation formula is set up, an 850HP Buick Special with 3 stages of weight reduction can reach 560PP. For a comparison, A GT-R Black with an oil change sees around 552PP.
Some cars, when reaching speeds of over 240Mph, largely lose the ability to turn.
The Jaguar Xjr-9 is the only real car to show up in the Dream Car Championships.
The Nissan Gt-R Tokyo Prototype is lighter than the current GtR and has one more gear. No one knows what happened to that 7th gear. Conversely, The LeMans version is the only racecar in the game with an automatic. citation needed
Despite having less weight, frontal downforce and a full 100 horsepower more than the standard model, the Dodge Viper ACR only costs 370Cr more.
Due to a possible error, the Tommy Kaira ZZII, a mid engined, lightweight all wheel drive supercar with over 550 Horsepower, costs 65,000Cr. This is also known as one of the games greatest bargains.
If you try to replicate cars from the GT4 Racing series, most if not all of them will come down to 498PP.
Despite wearing the exact same body, the Ford GT LM Race Car gains downforce over the Ford GT '02.
There are leather suitcases behind the seats of an Alfa Romeo 8C.
The Alfa Romeo TZ2 and the Jaguar Xj13 are the only real race cars you can paint.
The specs of the higher leveled race cars are usually off from real life, with some gaining close to 400Hp and losing 100Kg. There are a number of theories on this.
When sending your car into the garage for an engine rebuild or chassis refresh, it will come out in the opposite direction, despite there being little to no room to turn around in most cases.
The Aston Martin V8 Vantage has the single longest standard gear in Gran turismo, with its 6th gear stretching from 219 Mph to well over 400 mph. No one has ever seen the end of that gear.
Some premium cars have standard versions that you can only find when porting from GTPSP. You can buy them if PD decides to put them in the Online Car Dealership. Strangely, some of these cars have larger rim selections than the premium version.
If you race against a CPU Mazda Rx8 Lm Race car, it won't have an exhaust note in the replay. Instead, you only hear transmission, tire and wind noise.
