It's supposed to be a German car in-game, so probably not a Lexus.

Sorry my bad. I always thought that it was one brand, or at least it had main line of cars sold as Kaiser Frazer and some more unique were either Frazers or Kaisers.


Kaiser-Frazer was the company name. They sold Kaisers for the entire duration they were in business, and Frazers for the first few years until the brand was dropped.

Well, it's very close. Insanely close. I wouldn't be surprised if it was the inspiration for the in-game car.


How is it close? It's a sedan vs. an SUV. I don't see it.

But the prototype and production model look identical (i think) so we will never know. i guess it becomes by substitution. considering this was a reveal. Later on it becomes normal. plus after i researched the car extensively its probably became on off my favourite modern supercars


They don't look identical if you know what to look for. Among other things, the production version has different side mirrors and the addition of side marker lights.

That's because the majority of the Mitsubishi racing cars in the Gran Turismo series are fictional. Mitsubishi basically stuck to rally & raid rather than circuit racing.

It looks like the game designer changed the front and rear lights but not the quarter windows, so we are left with a 350/370 mashup.

Changing it to Mazda B-Series. One of the ways Mazda tried to disguise the Ford Ranger cab was the blackout treatment on the side windows, which matches up with the ingame image.

A special hidden car only available through Gameshark or Action Replay on the PAL version. Legend has it that Esso got pissed off with Polyphony not paying them to use a car with their sponsor on it, and cancelled future sponsoring on any new video game, which is why there is now "Exxon" instead of Esso.


Lol the Esso/Exxon thing is way older and bigger than video games. If you check into the company's history of mergers and acquisitions, a legal agreement prevents the Esso name from being used in the USA.
Nissan Silvia

If a car was ever playable at some point, it should remain that way, otherwise history starts to get altered. I can still drive the Silvia I got in December even if someone who just bought the game today can't.

Just saw that Nissan themselves state that the engine and chassis were actually from the Gloria. Between the language barrier and the 5 decades gone by, information on this car is largely speculation at this point.

Agreed it was different, but not totally different. It was based on the S21 after all.


Yeah I meant it wasn't simply an S21 coupe running down the same assembly line as the sedans. It was a coachbuilt car that was largely hand-made in Italy.

I guess this doesn't sounds too bad but I'm not sure if I will have the patience

And I didn't know, since the gallardo is probably the fastest stock car, I was thinking it could be a 7 star car


They are gradually bumping all the cars up to 7-star one by one. So far it is Countach, Dart, NC MX5, S30 Z, Lancer Evo 3, and Mk4 Supra.
Subaru Impreza

ドリフトスピリッツ (2013)
All these are listed as GH on the site. They should all probably be changed to GR, since GH was base and GR was STI. The STI is the model that appears in most games.

By offers you mean free? or just offering things like in-app purchases discount? I still dunno if i will be able to catch up with the game unless there is Some ways to progress without spending a buck, its surprising the jap version is still going strong, makes me wonder why they decided to throw in a Lambo here instead of Maximum Tune as i see it more fitting in that game, not to mention the Lambo license is expensive for some companies to offer

The Lambo is also a 7 star car (?) so i guess that's why there is no body kits for it


The Gallardo is not 7-star. The Countach is 7-star and DOES have bodykits.
As far as offers, SPCP is a free event going on right now and happens on a regular basis. Basically all the free parts are bumped to a higher level for a while, with free coins and enhancement kits thrown into the mix too.

There was already one, but a Countach, this is the second lambo in the game which is surprising

Too bad i will never play this game again after they shut out the English version and spent so much on that, it's too hard to catch up to the jap ver now


Almost everybody who made the jump in January is far better off now than they were in inter. It's actually *easier* to catch up because high-end parts and cars are always on offer in some way, shape or form.

It's true that the Skyline Sports is actually a seperate series. So Mk. could be removed, but then the full name has to be Skyline Sports instead of Skyline.


Exactly the conclusion I just came to. I'll update the listings once I figure out if it's Sport or Sports.

Edit: Sport appears to be correct. Listings updated.

Prince Skyline Sport

Gran Turismo 6 (2013)
Here's where I differ on the site thinking for a change. Mk. I isn't needed for the Skyline Sport because there was only one generation. It's redundant. Show me a Mk. II Skyline Sport and I'll shut up.

Edit: I see the problem. We've been listing it as an ordinary Skyline. It should really be listed as Skyline Sport. It was a totally different car line from the mass-produced Skylines.

What I'm saying is classifying all early Beetles as "1200" is incorrect, because the engine size varied.
Plymouth 'Cuda

Gran Turismo 6 (2013)
Plymouth did not use the Six Pack name; that was Dodge only.
Also, "V8" was never called out because there were no lesser engines. A V8 was standard on the 'Cuda model for all 6 years it was offered.

Volkswagen 1200

Gran Turismo 6 (2013)
Just remember that 1200 is simply the displacement, not the model name, and it increased over the lifespan of the car. In addition, it varied depending what market the car was sold in. For example, all 1966 Beetles were 1300s in the USA:



Usually there is a rhyme and reason to the way things are organized on this site, even if it may not be immediately apparent to new users.

Doubt ill ever get to own a GNX,
still I want to point out that nobody calls a GNX a Regal, even if it really is one, Same as when you say you drive a regal, Nobody stright away thinks, Ah a GNX? Kinda like if we listed the BMW M3 as a 3 series? wich also dont happen. just pointing out there.


Exactly. The Regal was a conservative, plush, luxury coupe for middle-aged people. It hadn't been updated in 6 years and was about to go out of production. ASC didn't want the name and its connotations anywhere near the GNX and chose not to promote the car's Regal roots. Anyone who lived through those times knows that the vast majority of Regals were not Grand Nationals, but Limiteds with Landau vinyl roofs and wire wheel covers.
Buick GNX

Gran Turismo 6 (2013)
Buick GNX is the correct name. It was intended as a tribute to the Buick GSX. Just as the GSX was not called Skylark GSX, the GNX was not called Regal GNX.
A couple ads from the ASC, the manufacturer:
