-I thought about posting the '87 951 because that is what I have but the '89 is basically the '88 951S with the same HP. Bottom line is that when Porsche is finally in GT there needs to be a couple of the front engined cars to compliment the RR and MR beauties.

I've heard from Turn 10 a couple months back that the Porsche exclusive with EA might not last much longer. I'm hoping that they're right. With that said, if I were to pick any Porsches to come to GT; the 944 Turbo would definitely be one of them.

RUF is a nice alternative to Porsche but they don't have every Porsche model tuned, we need the original for cars like the one in this thread.
 
When I finally get mine back out of the shop I'll post picks. Would love to have this and a 987S. Then I can "drive" my toys on the track more often and save a lot on tires.

I’ve been thinking that since GT7 now has a livery editor, players can make their own grids of 944 turbo cup cars out of this road going model if it eventually makes it into the GT franchise.

PD can even make a Menu Book showcasing Porsche’s engineering innovation out of the Taycan (1st road-going electric sporty Porsche), either of the 356s already in-game (1st road-going RR sportscar) (or the 959 for being the successor to the 1st sportscar with a Dakar-winning basis), and of course this car, one of the first FR Porsches.

Damn, I really wanna get a feel for how FR Porsches of that era handle, considering that they’ve been said to be well-balanced. :drool:
 
I'm fully convinced that the biggest obstacle to this Porsche being featured in GT7 is....Porsche themselves. The company is incredibly anti anything that isn't 911 related.
