N1. :D 👍
 
Lol, when I'm tuning my car, it will say things like my car is 1200 inches in height, and the width is 1300 inches. Not centimeters but inches lol.
 
At least it's just a text error. If they'd actually converted the car to RWD it would have been a bit bigger of a deal. Considering that the car is notable for being the only AWD Super GT car. Raced in '06, '07, '08 and won at least one race. Though it's a bit goofy that they messed up the history on a Japanese GT Racer. :dunce:
 
PDs extensive research and quality control strikes again.

I hear they have the best quality control and quality assurance in all of Japan at least that is what the American and European fanatics would lead you to believe :dopey:

These do provide a good laugh though, thanks @Dr_Watson

Oh my. It doesn't really bother me, but it is kinda silly how PD can make those mistakes. :lol: Don't they do researches on cars or are given data from the manufacturers or something?
 
Some odd bits always slip through the QA process. There is no perfect software that has any level of complexity.

Yes 1300 inches is ridiculous, but 1300 centimeters = 13 meters, also ridiculous. 1200 millimeters (1.2 meters) could be correct for height, but 1300 millimeters would usually not be correct for width except in a kart, micro car, or Harley-Davidson LOL

Maybe it's converted using Torque converter, not a drivetrain swap? Have you checked the car settings?
 
Good find! LOL

Why don't they just allow the user to choose Metric or Imperial units.... they are confusing themselves with all the unit changes!
 
Don´t worry... They´ll fix this in an update... eventually. :lol:

lol, no they won't -> They didn't for GT5....
 
The PMS Camaro RS has the same description as the Citroen Xsara Rally Car. Don't see them fixing that either.
 
The Jaguar XJR-9 has 780 hp, according to the dealership. However, when tuning it, it has >900 hp without any modification. The top speed, however, leads me to believe that the data from the dealership is correct and the car has 780 hp.

Still, it's confusing.

A lot of the prototypes do that, the Bentley should have ~620hp but once you buy it it has like 800hp. Wish they'd fix it, or sort the power limiter out so it doesn't just flatten the power curve.

As for that GT300 Subaru, the old one was RWD before they allowed 4WD's. I'm guessing PD just copied the description across. Not the first one I've seen, there's a few silly text errors throughout the dealership - I'd expect it gets hard to keep track of so many cars.

Hahahah i know, these are the minor mistakes that should be corrected, not those tiny things not much people care about, this is still preety noticible if you pay attention.
