2.000 is what I got today:grumpy:, after the patch. Never received less than 5.000 before.

Really? I had to stop looking and getting my hopes up for 5K :lol: It always seems like it will land on something good then moves that one last time 😞

Instead, I've mostly been painting and stickering today. Sambabus is still comically slow, even with a turbo and tune, but at least it looks cool...

Does it remain with two colors now when you paint it or you had to painfully apply stickers on the part you wanted with another color ?

It's split; the top, bottom and bumpers are all separate so you can do them individually once you've applied first paint.

Nice !! It wasn't like that in GTS and it was dumb ! Now we will be able to make fun liveries much more simply on that bus !

Tonight I tried to gold some missions, with few success and I did the WTC 700 championship (don't remember which one, with Tiral Mountain, Barcelona Catalunya and Nürburgring 24) Easy with the Tom's Supra tuned down. Sadly I bumped into some brake checking iAs here and there so I only got CRB on the Nürburgring (which was not a given, as it is hard to pass trough the traffic on the narrow parts of that track). 1st on each track, CRB on the last one + 100k Cr for winning the championship, that's 225k Cr won without boring grinding. I have to succeed with CRB on each next time ! (got to be more patient)

Oh and of course I got a 3 stars ticket that brought me 5k... :rolleyes:

Daily mileage, got a 3 star ticket that won me an Audi Quattro.
Saved my 1 mill until the UCD updates.
 
TRB1999
Decided to do a custom Honda S660 race at the Red Bull Ring with a bunch of Red Bull or Honda supported drivers and other drivers for Honda-powered teams.

I was just bored

I'm with you. I bought 10 of these wonderful little classics, and entered all ten in a Custom race just for the fun of it.

Here's the video:-

 
Today failed on completing book 33 for the 12th time (4th place to me is a good finish but . . .), completed Magic Mountain all golds except 2, bought a BMW 3.0 CSL and a Tomaso Mangusta, took BMW out for a spin - what a blast, and going back to the research to see what I need to do/use to complete book 33.

Overall another great day with Grab Turismo so far. Off to GTS for some relaxation.

Enjoy your racing.
 
Bought a pair of Nissans.

The Z holds a special place for me. I used to have a blue 1977 Datsun 280Z and this thing reminds me so much of that car. I will have to own one of these new Z's some day.
 
I woke up to a gift of 1m and was so happy and giddy that I decided to do Race A...
It started out OK but got twisted to the point where I was watching my rear view more than what was in front. Papu Papu sent him to the pits.

Did the WTC 700, twice. With @praiano63 his setup on the McLaren 650S. Did put a Turbo on it with race soft tires and it was still very, very good. Also did some laps on the PAN-American Championship and just quit after the first race. Fastest way to make some good cash. Probably end up doing the WTC 700 daily for the time being as i enjoy the tracks. (Trail Mountain, Barcelona and the Nürburgring.)

Also got my daily Cr.5000 from a 2 Star roulette ticket. Everyday the same reward. :lol: #rigged

In addition to my S660 race, I also golded the last of the mission challenges currently available today: the Le Mans 24 Minutes in “The Sun Also Rises”.

Used the Audi R18 '16. Got the victory in the very last seconds on the last lap. The previous leaders pulled a very epic fail and pitted as I was coming towards the Ford chicane.

I'm pretty sure it was split in Sport too, but it doesn't show it at first. You have to paint it all one colour, then when you go back in to the paint colour the next time, it gives you separate boxes for Body 1, Body 2, etc. Body 2 is usually the bonnet on most cars, but is the top half on the bus.
 
Managed to snag the F1 after a week of grinding (I'm seeing Blue Moon Bay in my sleep at this point!). Took it out for a test drive on the first race of WTC 800 which was exhilarating and much fun. Would also love the 917k but that's too much grinding for me. I'm just going to enjoy the cars I have in custom races until the changes drop next month.

I'll have to check because I remember that I tried and was disappointed to get it with the same color everywhere. And I've spent some hours in the livery editor so I think I would have noticed if it was possible. When I'd start a livery on a new car, it was one of the first things I would check : could I paint different zones ? Before resolving to go the sticker road when it was not possible. But you may be right.
 
I dunno what to buy, I am approaching the 18.5 million mark.

McLaren F1(Like) or Porsche 917K(Hot)?

I love those new Zs. I have a 350 and I'm gutted they're not bringing these to the UK.

Been on for a while this evening. No issues for me currently.

Weird, I haven't been able to get on at all. I've tried about 4 or 5 times now tonight and keep getting the same message: "A connection to the server cannot be established. An unexpected error has occurred: CE-222032"
 
I completed the last menu book, and was thoroughly disappointed. Menu book 39 just kept going on and on, five races with no end in sight. I mean, it was far from awful, but that race on the Green Hell really has strained my fingers with how it made me nervous, it was not pleasant. What an underwhelming way to end the singleplayer mode. I know we'll be getting more events soon, but this GT Cafe tutorial thing just felt bare bones, cheaply made, even. That final cutscene, with all the familiar faces showing up in the cafe was so... so... I don't even know anymore. Tacked on? Uninspiring? Lazy? All of the above? Yeah, I'll go with the latter. At least it won't keep playing that freaking Chariots of Fire song (Seriously, what was the point of that? It does not mesh well with GT7's aesthetic). And oh yeah, I got the 6 star roulette spin, 500k credits. Whatever, not that bad. At least it wasn't an invitation.

Well, aside from all that, I did also complete the Rolling Stone missions, which were more fun than the first two sets of missions. Credit payout wasn't that great, but getting both the Gr4 Mustang and the Gr3 Vette (which I used in the Menu Book 39 races) was a pleasant surprise. Also, the 1 mil credits were nice, not sure what I'll be spending them on... Hm, best keep them in my wallet. I am strapped for cash after all.

Now, I just have to bring myself to complete the Super license tests. S-10 will be a pain...
 
- Got my 1,000,000 Cr.

- Did one of each of the various dirt races to get mileage and a bit of credits

- A bit of SSRX to finish daily workout

- Used my roulette ticket, got a Genesis G70 which was really nice actually. Didn't have it yet.

- Bought a Pontiac Firebird from the UCD. No hood emblem unfortunately with the current colour in stock.
 
Lost some horses, anyone know a cowboy? No, permanently gone then.

Hit 18,000 Miles on my Tomahawk S. BHP down from 1006 to 1001 after 3 engine and body rebuilds.

Waiting for 00.00 GMT for dealer refresh, more grinding while I wait.

Yes, that dose suck.
I like the 3xxZ's also but being a 280 guy they never really struck me the way this new Z dose. I also had 2 82 ZX's at separate points, one N/A and one turbo. They were fun but compared to the 77 they were more grand tour versions of the original 280 Z's. I had fun with the turbo tough it would rip the doors off the iRoc's and Firebird's of the day. It died street racing and winning against a Ford Probe despite having catastrophic turbo failure and cracking the block.
