List of current Gr.3/Gr.4 cars and their possible replacements in GT7/8

BrunusCL82
I also don't like the idea of putting the same car as Gr.3 (GT3) and Gr.4 (GT4). It's a lack of creativity or austerity taken to the last level.

Instead of Viper Gr.4, it should be Charger or Challenger.

Instead of the Corvette Gr.4, it should be Camaro.

Instead of McLaren 650S it should be 570S.

Also, what we are urgently in need of are new brands, like Bentley. Incidentally, I don't even know why Bentley hasn't appeared in GT yet, since it is a subsidiary brand of Volkswagen, which in theory has a good relationship with PD.

I wanted to see not only the new GT3 and GT4 cars, but also racing cars from the past to make up these categories. The BPR Global Series Era GT1 cars of the 94-96 years and the FIA GT1 of the 2000s would fit perfectly in the Gr.3 category. The cast is vast and has classic cars that in a AAA game could not be missing.

So how would you feel if PD were to add these then?

They both exist and will compete in their respective classes. Likewise, these have competed simultaneously on track with each other:

And don't even get me started with Super GT because the examples are quite numerous.

Edit: And I just remembered the current example from the last two years:

Also the 155 DTM doesn't have anywhere else to go either unless they added more classic DTM machinery

For all the brands that are currently in the game Audi, BMW, Ford, Mercedes, it should be the easiest of all additions and a good reason for cars of a certain age.
 
After getting the Mazda 3, it’s really hard to try and pick what Gr.4 car would next. All the new to GT7 Gr.4 cars are NOT RWD.

We’ve seen any Gr.4 drivetrain can be competitive, due to PD’s BoP and programming parameters. However, adding cars based on current GT4 cars, seems to have taken a backseat. I can’t call what Gr.4 could possibly be next.

Any of the current real life GT4 cars are a logical choice. A 2019 R8 GT4 is logical. A 2019 Vantage GT4 is logical. All the GT4 cars in the OP. GT3 cars are being added damn near constantly(even if it’s just a livery and interior update). Now, with World Cup GT2 & GT3 Sport Mode players using the Gr.4 cars more than GT1 players, it would be good to showcase newer GT4 cars…..buuuut, Gr.3/GT3 are the meat of Sport Mode.

I expecting the new Civic Gr.4 and the Z Gr.4 , if i had to choose then the new Vantage would deserve refresh the most

That’s what I mean. The Suzuki and Genesis cars, unless gtplanet have more info about the partnership, may have just been those brands reaching out and wanting to be represented. Especially after seeing the Suzuki branded RC F GT3, in one of the World Tours.
Aston Martin is a legacy brand of the franchise. Would be the most logical of manufacturers to have up to date cars. Yet, we don’t have any. We got the Bilstein livery, instead of a new car.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see a Gr.4 Civic arrive before an updated RWD Gr.4 car.

The Ferrari deal is what I’d like to know about. The VGT is made, but no new real road and race Ferraris. Pirelli decals are not available. Just seems like Michelin being in partnership with PD, has rubbed Ferrari-Pirelli the wrong way.

Worth noting that Suzuki does not have partnership immunity in Manufacturers Cup for now.
 
Gr.4 has a bit of an identity crisis at the minute. If you look at the other groups, they're all fairly simple to place cars in:

  • Gr.1 is prototype race cars
  • Gr.2 is top-of-the-line silhouette race cars and homologation specials
  • Gr.3 is GT3/E cars, as well as 80s-90s RWD race cars that are around 500BHP so can easily fit into a GT3 BoP
  • Gr.B is the catch-all WRC-style rally car group.
  • Anything pre-1980 doesn't go in a group even if it would otherwise fit
But Gr.4 is trying to be GT4, TCR, S-Tai, and whatever stuff like the WRX Gr.4 is trying to be all at once, and it makes it really hard to figure out what they'd want to add to it for a given manufacturer.

WRX Gr.4 seems to be modelled after their Nurburgring 24 Hours race car, to which you can add VLN to the list.

EDIT: For myself, I consider Gr.2 to be the class for anything too fast/aerodynamic for Gr.3 and too slow/not aerodynamic enough for Gr.1 (just in case they add back the Z11SN).

The WRX is essentially the S-Tai car.

Along with the Evo.

The main reason for the confusion was to even have Tom read that the class is equivalent to GT4. Should have just said equivalent to Super Endurance(Taikyu) racing or production race car series around the world.
 
Like i said before you can easily fix Gr.4 - give it subclasses like Gr.4 FF/TCR class , Gr.4 4WD then a regular Gr.4 would be more like actual GT4
