I never knew BMW made the McLaren, so my apologies askia47.

BMW made the engine, the car was put together by McLaren and is officially their car, some of the race cars were ran by BMW and I'm not sure if that Fina one was ran by BMW but looking at the name I'd guess thats why it's called the BMW McLaren.

Anyone seen this before, theres a Noble on gthe back of the truck and that yellow car looks like a tuned Tommy Kaira ZZ-S.

 

[Dave A]

Heres a Caterham being tested.

they're are indeed the Noble and the Tommy Kaira, but unfortunately the pics are already a few months old. they where the first imaged impressions of the GT4 real life testings.

They'll most likely have a bunch of those little sports car companies in the game. If there is a mini van, there will be a Noble.

The stats for the Bugatti are wrong, it has 987Bhp and weighs 1550kg, the spin at Laguna seca was quite a while ago and down to driver error, the F1 has been tested by loads of people, and I'm not slagging that car off when I say this, neither were the people who tested it, but the handling at sped is pretty bad, it lacks that important thing, downforce, Bugatti handles well, it has downfoce, I'm not saying it will be better than this and that, but it will handle very well and I wouldn't be suprised if it handles better than the production F1. As for the race car handling, the Veyron isn't meant to handle like a race car, thats why VW is still working on it, cos at the monment thats what it handles like.

You're a little confused. The Veyron has existed in many forms.

2000 Veyron Concept (Paris)
2001 Veyron pre-production
2002 Veyron prototype
2003 Veyron final production

Bugatti's official site still lists it as 1001 HP. It has always been intended to be 1001 HP, even though concept models had a 600 HP engine.

The weight has changed constantly. Reports of the supposed final Veyron at Frankfurt 2003 list it as 1900kg, but a statement from Bugatti in July 2003 mentions that the final weight was 1600kg, although they had originally hoped for it to be 1550kg.

The Veyron is a silly car. It is a huge 7-speed with quad turbos designed to woo people with exciting numbers and diamonds on the speedometer. Every number for the vehicle is unofficial. Every model grows larger and larger, and they still say it will have a 1001 HP engine, but somehow they retain the same performance figures when they keep adding weight. While adding a foot to the length of the car, changing almost everything, making the cabin bigger, and many other changes, they have always maintained the car has a 253 MPH top speed without ever testing it.

The Veyron does not generate a lot of downforce. It had to have redesigned aerodynamics just to counteract the lift generated by that big bubble of a body. Most McLarens have big wings and generate a ton of downforce.

Top speed (unofficial top speed at that) is all the Veyron has, and top speed is dumb. The Saturn Ion Red Line maintained a speed of 212 MPH last week at Bonneville with a 4-cylinder. Whoop-dee-doo.

The Veyron is no bigger than a BMW 3 series, the engine is 987 Bhp which is 1001PS which is what they use in some other countries. The wight may be 1600Kg, but that doesn't make it heavy, sure the numbers are insane, but that doesn't mean it handles badly or isn't a good car cos the truth is, it is a good car and it does handle well/ is supposed to handle well at this point in time. The top speed hasn't been tested yet, 253Mph is the target Bugatti hopes to achieve as for the downfoce, the Veyron does generate downforce, and the McLaren F1 doesn't have a wing, the race versions did and the F1 LM did, but there was a very small amount of LM's built and it's daft to start comparing race cars to road cars. Top speed wise I see your point that just going fast in a straight line is nothing special, but it gets there faster than anything else and and it has good handling, not ERnzo good but good, the Enzo is a supercar the Veyron isn't strictley that, it's more of a Grand tourer.

NOT GT4!!

NOT GT4!!

From R: Racing Revolutions (Which looks like a copycat version of GT3). Made by Namco and a PS2 game.

Maybe there is hope for it in GT4?
