Since it is not "transferred" from GT4??

Awesome little car BTW, it's like a go-kart on steroids.
 
maybe it was transfered from the PSP
 
If they knew it'd be this popular with the time trial stuff, I'm sure it would have been.

It's from the PSP, same with the veryon I believe.

Though the jaguar is standard, and not in the PSP game... so I dunno.
 
The furai is without question my favorite car in the game. I really hope it ends up being one of the (supposed) standard cars that gets upgraded to a premium. But even if it doesnt the graphical differences dont bother me that much and I will continue to drive it as a standard because it is so fun to drive.
 
GTPSP debutant cars are for the most part standard. Nissan GT-R Spec V and Enzo Ferrari are the main exceptions, and yes, the Jaguar XFR did not debut in GTPSP yet still has no Premium mark on it.

Simple answer, because it is a standard.

The logic of this question is that PD copy/pasted GT4 cars and labelled them standard and all new cars would be premium.

Yet here is Furai being not a GT4 car but not a premium either..
 
Only guess would be because no one outside of Mazda (and TopGear Mag) might have gotten a look at the inside... who knows what that cockpit beheld inside it.
 
Because I told Kaz, a very personal friend of mine, that I didn't want them to make a Premium version of it.

Seriously, what kind of answers do you expect? We don't have access to any info that you don't.
 
Old thread revival.

I wonder if it has anything to do with the car being burn to a crisp, as reported this Month???

I wouldn't have much hope for a premium Furai in GT6 then. Unless they can model it off pictures.

Heard of the Isuzu 4200R? :sly:

Anything is possible with GT. Mazda could have fairly extensive data stored in computers as well for them to go off of.
 
Hopefully true.

Only some will know the real truth about whether the cockpit is a simulation or a fantasy, if we do eventually get a Premium Furai. It would be awesome to see that cockpit; I have, FWIW, good faith in the artistry of the current generation of developers. ;)

The Furai is an absolute Dream Car. A car that almost immediately attunes itself to the foibles of the driver - forgiving, responsive, and alike to a sudden-met dancing partner that knows your every move.

This was the car that broke the game for me, when I was stuck, and got me progressing again. I have two in my garage, that are now completely overhauled, and kept pristine, and OCD, to be savored visually now and then. But that's a whole other thing.. . . :lol:
 
Something tells me that the Vision Gran Turismo thing in GT6 will be full of Furai equivalents, so the future looks bright ;)
 
I bet it has a lot to do with it being burnt, Mazda probably handed Kaz a diecast and told him to make do with that.
