[SilentShadowfox]

I was looking through the museum cards for Nissan and there it was recreated..
like a car model in game..
Was this car cut?
Check it out if you can.

Looks like it might be a car that was cut. Would have been somthing to rival the Ford MKIV Racer car, Jaguar XJ-13 chapperal 2D i think.

According to the link it had a GR8 engine maybe it was too GR8 to be included.

theres also a R380-ll, R381, R382 & R383 all with similar style pics but the R381 & R382 also have another pic each which is definitely real life photo not game created.

Just because it has a museum card doesn't meant it was going to be in the game.

This ^ .. Like the 1970 boss 302 museum card... Disappointing really ..

^ Or the Dodge Trucks or the Model T. I'll admit it'd have been cool to see a modded Model T

Lol I think a mode one would be the only way it would get used in GT5..

It wouldn't have, as it had a much smaller displacement engine and would've been very noncompetitive if forced to race against them directly. It would've competed in a lower class at the same time.

I don't think it was to do with the fact that it was on a museum card, it was to do with the fact that the picture on the museum card looked like a thumbnail for an actual ingame model of the car.
Seriously, check the Nissan section of your museum cards and see if you have it, it even looks like it uses GT5 lighting.

It's just a studio photo. Like other cars on a white background.

One thing is good, people mix GT and real life. =)

Or fun 1-lap Nurburgring races with these things, assuming they don't get stuck somewhere.

I'm looking at the same museum card, it does look kinda game generated. Maybe a hint on what's going to be in GT6 perhaps.
