Updated the Mercedes folder in GT6-Garage. Here's how it looks.

That GT6 CLK looks really good to me, except the headlights just look wrong. It's like they're flat and don't curve out like I'd expect them to.
 
After looking through this thread for a little bit, I sure hope the Standard cars don't return for the GT7.

Yes, some of the updated ones look good, but it's time for those things to go until they receive premium status.

The only problem I have with standard cars is their lack of EXTERIOR details and low textures.
Honestly when I drive I prefer black interior view because it gives me proper FOV and doesn't distract me.
I don't need to see another steering wheel in my TV screen or fancy shadows effects on the dashboard.

The exterior details on some of the cars in GT6 are horrible and I agree with you on that part.

For me, I can't help but feel that the "Standards" are holding back the customization features in GT6 since you can't do much outside of changing wheels and adding wings. I need more.

You have a point there, customization should be improved even for improved standards.

One thing I really would like to see is the possibility to turn steering wheel off. I really really don't want to see a second steering wheel while I'm driving, it ruins immersion for me. That's why I sort of prefer black interior view to premium full modeled interiors. Grid Autosport has the best interior views I've ever seen and it's not even a full sim.

To further expound on your cockpit preferences, PDI really needs to expand the options available to the user when it comes to setting the camera. Project Cars does a good job, but no need to stop there.

In a perfect world, Race Mods would available for all cars, and I see the Standards stopping that feature (that worked marvelously in GT5.
 
I too like the black interior, partially because of how the dials are clearer and easy to see as well as being what I'm used to since GT3.

And it gives decent FOV for that car. I tend to use the narrower camera.
 
First time poster in this thread - but there is a particular car close to my heart that makes me cry a bit inside with its standard treatment....

Amazingly, that Griffith rear number plate *is* in focus.....

The Griffith was an absolute game changer for TVR circa 1991 and I think it is one of the prettiest cars ever made. I know the Tuscan made it Premium but I would love to see our Griff get a bit of love.

The biggest thing that annoys me though is when you kick a bit of dust up and the rump gets covered, the dust actually blocks off the exhaust tips. They are programmed as solid, when it should be an open tube. Laughable really.....

Looks GT7 ready:lol:
 
I really hope that all standard car's will be updated for GT7... Even little touch would be good for me just to remove those jagged edges...

Post's like this are what changed my mind with Standard Cars and forced me to adhere to my belief system of no Standard cars in GT7.

The Hommell Berlinette is also a disappointment.View attachment 411771

Still can't believe they put these low quality cars in GT5 and 6.So you telling me that the team looked at this and was like "yea this looks good and nobody won't notice, also we can put these low quality cars on the ps4 as well even though the competition is taking the quality over quantity approach." I hope Kaz change his mind about putting standards in GT7 which is going to be on PS4.
 
When GT5 came out it had the most defined (or just about) and the least defined cars on the PS3. Does PD think they own the field by having the best and the worst models on all the PS4? I just hope they do in fact have the best defined cars on the PS4 to make up for the rotting standards.
 
Don't know if this car was posted here but I was recently in the dealership and saw that the Opel Speedster/Vauxhall VX220 looked pretty good. But cars in the dealership always look better than in gameplay. I bought it regardless and it turns out it's a pretty clean car for a standard.

I already know that so I thought everyone knew it already...

Still better than nothing.
