 Jaguar E-Type Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | Alternative for the front shot. To be honest I'm not feeling this car which is odd since I've been an avid fan when I was a kid. orig15.deviantart.net/106b/f/2016/117/e/d/e_type_coupe_1961_001_by_truemouse-da0g2e0.png | |
 Citroën Mehari Grand Theft Auto V (2013) | Not my intention to replace photographs. Please keep the originals up. Just showing the same car with the roof up, in the fore mentioned Kalahari Beige and in the proper '79 - '83 Citroën Méhari 4x4 spec.

 Blastolene Special Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | speedfreak975 wrote Yes I know but it says Jay Teno  Polyphony only accidentally discovered the Blastolene Special Tank Car when they were snooping around Jay Leno's garage looking for new engine sounds. That's probably why they thought it was Jay Leno's own creation. Jay Leno owns it, but he didn't build it. In the same way that Ralph Lauren owns a $40 million 1938 Bugatti 57sc Atlantic, it remains a Bugatti, not a Ralph Lauren 57sc Atlantic. (Jay Leno also owns a blue 57sc Atlantic clone built around a 'regular' 1937 Bugatti 57s chassis. I doubt it even started life as an sc.) The Blastolene Special was designed by Michael Leeds and built by Randy Grubb. Of all the Randy Grubb creations it's possibly one of the most ordinary vehicles they've built. Take for instance the 1940 Packard Streamliner and Rocket 3 quad bike. Now if THESE were in Gran Turismo Sport . . . Although my two favourites would be the Blastolene B-702 (GMC 11½ litre V12 & Allison 4-speed auto) with hand blown tail lights and the Deco Tri-pod (Piaggio MP3 scooter) The Brotherhood of the Blastolene is a 'loose confederation of automotive artists' who support each other through amazing outrageous art-deco projects such as the ones I've mentioned. Blastolene was named after a barbecue sauce Michael Leeds created for a restaurant he used to own. Although Blastolene cars are very definitely art they're not considered 'art cars'. Not like Chip Foose's Impression or Boyd Coddington's Cadzilla. These are ground-up creations designed and built to stir primal emotions in the very core of every onlooker, not to win trophies at car shows. Imagine if Polyphony took a serious interest in Blastolene creations. We could be hooning around and feeling the lean at the auxiliary controls on the flying bridge of the Decoliner, or scaring rally spectators with a savage looking Blown Ranger. -- Last edit: 2016-04-23 08:55:29 | |
 Suzuki Escudo Pikes Peak Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | PikesPeak wrote Can this car past 200 mph like in old days ? Can you set it up to pop a wheelie and travel at unfathomable speeds until it flew off the course, the map and the Playstation would have a conniption and crash with a flicker of the screen and a sound like sitting on an over-ripe potato like the old days? | |
 Fiat Barchetta Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | Had about 20 of these in my fleet at SixT, Rhein Main AFB. They were brilliant to drive. If you ever get an opportunity you need to try them out. Even took one for the work's weekend at Nürburgring. | |
 Fiat 500 Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | Burn Rubber wrote FYI I completely changed my profile. Removing that "love and hate list". Aw, you're growing up. I'm so proud. | |
Fiat 500 Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | Nope, they're beige and boring. The only reason admins are replacing my pictures with yours is that you spammed the hell out of them with your whining and complaining. That's all you're good at. Whine and complain like a spoilt little brat. I'm guessing mommy and daddy don't say 'no' to you enough. You have a list of people you hate and love and you don't see how childish that is? And yes it does blend in. You chose a beige car that matches almost perfectly the beige building in the background. But that's you in a nutshell. Beige. | |

Fiat 500 Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | Beige car almost blending in with a beige background. Sounds like a Rubbery is in progress. Meanwhile on the other side of my rear shot . . . orig05.deviantart.net/efd7/f/2016/111/2/4/500_f_68_003_by_truemouse-d9zs5jg.jpg Red 500 in front of a blurred, out of focus Yellow FD, grey track and green grass. Can't fail to lose it now. Not saying admins need to replace the first image with mine, but this is here as a comparison so folks can actually see it. And yes, it's passing a heavier RX-7 on a corner. More than twice the weight in fact. 1,100 lbs Vs 2,685–2,954 lb Balanced mid engine Vs Nose heavy front engine Maintaining speed Vs Slamming anchors Does a diagram really need to be drawn? Or can people finally understand the principles behind a technical circuit is to make it a level playing field? If it were a question of 'who has the most horses wins' then there's very little point to racing. | |
 Ford Mustang Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | Great, now I have my own stalker/ fan club. | |

 Ford Mustang Mach 1 Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | Razor440 wrote Missed a couple details. It didn't have a rear spoiler (by the way, that rear spoiler is NOT stock) Didn't have a front spoiler Didn't have hood pins, Obviously did not have Magnum 500 style wheels or lettered radial tires. (it had the "Ford Motor Company" hubcaps on steel wheels, bias-ply tires with a thin white stripe decoration, Didn't have the "hockey stick" stripe. Only a black lower panel with a "Mach 1" decal.  Oh yeah...and you forgot this movie where the Mustang IS the star...  Ahem. I was trying to say that amongst the Bond cars was a Colorado red Mach 1. I'm not trying to replicate the Bond car, that's just the colour it came in. Spoilers and hoods pins are subtle period accessories. I add them because they are particular to this car. I could have removed the decals but then it would look even less stock. I didn't forget Eleanor, it's just not worth saying "Believe it or not" over. When people think of Gone In Sixty Seconds they think of a Mustang (Even the remake). When people think of Bond they think Aston Martin, Lotus or BMW. They might even think of a yellow 2CV6 gallivanting down the side of a Spanish olive grove. However few look at a Mach 1 and think 'Bond'. | |
Ford Mustang Mach 1 Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | Colorado red Mach 1. Believe it or not this is a 'Bond' car. Sean Connery, Diamonds Are Forever. Although in the film they didn't have the black anti-glare patch on the hood. The Mustang chase was filmed on Las Vegas' famous Fremont Street, which was still open to the public. One set of stunt coordinators had set up the car driving into an alleyway on two wheels. Another set of stunt coordinators had set up the car driving out of supposedly the same alleyway on two wheels. Sadly it wasn't the same two wheels. Once they had found this out they had tried several ways to remedy this. Flip the film etc . . . none of it worked so eventually they set up another scene shot indoors with a moving 'alleyway' and a Mach 1 mounted on a gimbal which simulated the car switching sides part way down the alley. orig00.deviantart.net/ac97/f/2016/109/8/1/mustang_mach_1_1971_001_by_truemouse-d9zi78x.png | |
 Vauxhall Astra V8 Coupé Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | DTM = Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters for German cars only. That would be the Opel version of this, not the Vauxhall version pictured here. British Vauxhall Astras ran in the BTCC until 2004. BTC-T Vauxhall Astra Coupe, also known as . . . Vauxhall Astra Super Touring Car (Wasn't particularly super by BTCC standards but by Astra standards this was the dog's proverbials.) -- Last edit: 2016-04-16 20:23:07 | |
 Auto Union Type C Streamliner Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | Interesting thing about the German race cars of the period. Originally their race colours were white, however they soon realised that paint cost money and weighed a significant amount so their cars were made with a polished unpainted metal finish to reduce cost and weight. As it happens it also reduced drag. Afterwards when Japan were to join the racing scene they adopted the white paint scheme. Of course all of this fell by the wayside when sponsors wanted their own paint schemes. orig10.deviantart.net/d937/f/2016/107/9/d/auto_union_v16_type_c_streamline__37_001_by_truemouse-d9z7as4.png | |
 Ferrari 250 GTO Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | To be honest I see nothing wrong with the J-2's photograph of the front, but I'll park this here if anyone wants a look at what was happening on the other end while I was taking that corner. orig00.deviantart.net/b154/f/2016/107/3/5/250_gto_cn_3729gt__62_001_by_truemouse-d9z7a2i.png -- Last edit: 2016-04-16 12:29:21 | |
 Alfa Romeo 155 V6 TI Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | From the front. orig14.deviantart.net/e1d0/f/2016/107/0/5/155_2_5_v6_ti__93_001_by_truemouse-d9z79qt.png Too much downforce. I felt like I was spending too much power trying to overcome that. I'll tweek it for next time. | |
 Holden Commodore Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | Better lit picture from the rear. orig01.deviantart.net/429d/f/2016/107/f/0/commodore_ss_04_003_by_truemouse-d9z78us.png And since some people claim they're "going to have a heart attack" if they see an Australian V8 take on a TVR Straight 6 and win . . . orig09.deviantart.net/8742/f/2016/107/7/c/commodore_ss_04_004_by_truemouse-d9z79do.png | |
 Rover Mini Cooper Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | ZoomZoom wrote The Italian Job was a great movie, I think these two shots represent the movie well. orig09.deviantart.net/48e8/f/2016/106/c/3/cooper_1_3i__98_001_by_truemouse-d9z3626.png orig14.deviantart.net/08a3/f/2016/106/1/6/cooper_1_3i__98_003_by_truemouse-d9z36q6.png Shame there isn't a Turin track, huh?

 Alfa Romeo Giulia TZ2 Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | JDMracerocket96 wrote Why is the car about to flip?? Noku can you take a picture that isint in air or of the car wrecking You see any dents or scratches on it? The car wasn't wrecking. That was the second time I lifted two wheels on a right turn. The first time was when I had passed the Zonda earlier, this time to stay ahead. I was pushing it to it's limit. By pushing a car to it's limit you know what it and you are capable of. If I drove slowly enough that all four wheels were on the ground there's a very good chance I wouldn't have won that race. It was like being on a knife-edge on all five laps. As it happens this shows views with more detail than most people will be privy to. How can that be a bad thing? | |
 Vauxhall Corsa Gran Turismo 5 (2010) | Is it a MK3 (Corsa C)? Really? I'm only saying since the Opel Corsa A was branded the Vauxhall Nova in the UK so the first Vauxhall Corsa was the Opel Corsa B. So isn't the third gen Opel Corsa is really only the second gen Vauxhall Corsa? | |
Holden Commodore Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | I guess I could run the race again. The problem about taking a picture out in the open is the glare bouncing off glass and paint. Sun always seems to be shining in the Deep Forest. Of course it'll be against a different 'hero' car. Hope that doesn't offend some folks sensibilities. -- Last edit: 2016-04-15 18:47:16 | |
 Citroën 2CV Gran Turismo 5 (2010) | Nice shot of the car though. Real depth to the wheels which I always thought was Polyphony's weakest aspect of this car. | |
 Citroën 2CV Gran Turismo (2009) | 425cc, no oval around the double chevron badge? Type AZ. | |
Citroën 2CV Gran Turismo 5 (2010) | I think the GT5 version was also a Type AZ. Same 425cc specs as the GT6, right? | |
 Citroën 2CV Gran Turismo 4 (2004) | Looks like a Type AZ to me. | |
 Citroën C4 WRC Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | Hakari wrote Damn... The first screenshot looks so realistic. Is it from the actual game or it's some kind of a promotional artwork? That was me just hooning around in the Swiss mud (Eiger Nordwand - can't quite remember but I think it was the K trail). | |
 RUF BTR Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | And this is what one that's been bought and driven looks like. orig11.deviantart.net/ce9b/f/2016/105/4/7/btr__86_001_by_truemouse-d9z1wpz.jpg pre04.deviantart.net/3ee4/th/pre/f/2016/105/a/0/btr__86_002_by_truemouse-d9z1x2l.jpg And that spoiler ain't doin' much for downforce there. | |

Holden Commodore Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | Rinspeed wrote Noko Tau, you can post the first pic in comments when the old one is too bad like for this or the Ferrari. And we will replace it. Is it okay if I link it from my DA account? And should I worry about people getting bent outta shape over what cars I've passed? (That's probably the TVR Speed 6 I've passed there. Other AI 'hero' cars include a 'vette, a Countach and a green Mercedes I never really paid that much attention to.) -- Last edit: 2016-04-15 02:23:29 | |
 Pontiac Sunfire GXP Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | I had the 99/2YK production version of this. Felt like a very European car. Very responsive. If ever there was a FWD Opel Manta . . . this would have been it. -- Last edit: 2016-05-12 11:43:44 | |
Hyundai Accent WRC Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | Stressful race. Expert Seasonal, Grand Valley race cars. This is really not the car for it but it is possible to win . . . just don't ever lose any speed. Carry as much as you possibly can. Make one mistake and they'll have you. A very average if forgiving car. And yes, that's a Pagini Zonda R I'm inching past, on the last lap, approaching the finish line. I should have chosen a random rally course. | |
 Dino 246 GT Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | You know that despite not having a Ferrari badge on it, and old Enzo being rather adamant that no Ferrari should have less than 8 cylinders, it's still built by Ferrari, in the Ferrari factory, with the Ferrari staff. It is still every bit as much a Ferrari as the new DS3 is a Citroën. Conclusively, the DVLA consider them Ferraris. There is nothing wrong with calling it a Ferrari Dino 246 GT. | |
Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta Passo Corto Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | Pretty decent in the intermediate seasonals. Pretty straight foward tune but watch the initial torque in this one though. Not too high and going over crests try not to make it too light on her rear axle. Even if you lose a few mph going over you'll be able to make that up soon as she settles on her haunches and you can tear around the last hairpin while your opponents are still trying not to slid off. | |
 Citroën 11 BL From Russia with Love (2005) | Not one panel or pane of glass could possibly be from any Traction Avant. | |
 Citroën DS 23 Enthusia: Professional Racing (2005) | Something this iconic really should be in more games along with its predecessor the Traction Avant. | |
 Citroën 2CV Enthusia: Professional Racing (2005) | 2CV6 to be precise, and I don't think this is a 1981 model. The Windshield surround on a 1982 Burgundy & Black Charleston it should be burgundy . . . this has a black windshield surround which marks it out as a Charleston ii which would be later. -- Last edit: 2016-05-25 00:51:18 | |
 Citroën Xantia Automation - The Car Company Tycoon Game (2015) | Really? I'm not seeing it. Wing mirrors are in the wrong place and the wrong size, the stance, a-pillars and general shape . . . I really don't see it. Any other views of it? A rear view would be most helpful. | |
 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | At first glance I thought it might have been the Freightliner version with that nose. But true enough it could be any brand of Sprinter with a nose job. | |
Rover Mini Cooper Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | It did have a Rover badge but in 1998 it was still ultimately being made by BMW. Just before BMW dropped Rover like a hot potato after appropriating the Mini badge and making the Mini's history BMW's own. Have you seen the present Mini website? It's disgusting how they're shoehorning BMW in as if they made it in the 1960's. Many thanks to Eran0004 and Gerome19. Lots of fun to be had. I've made a lot of these and can't just choose two, so please choose two that you think best exemplify the Mini. orig09.deviantart.net/48e8/f/2016/106/c/3/cooper_1_3i__98_001_by_truemouse-d9z3626.png orig15.deviantart.net/0c38/f/2016/106/1/7/cooper_1_3i__98_002_by_truemouse-d9z36b9.png Not sure why they aren't all posting.

 Mitsubishi Pajero Evolution Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | Montero and Shogun were alternative names for the Pajero. Polyphony still won't let you type 'Pajero' in the chats without censoring it. | |
 Citroën C3 Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | I should really have taken photographs of this tearing up the seasonals. I have the 1.4HDi Exclusive version of this in real life. The reason I suspect this is a Desire edition is that those alloy wheels belong to the Desire and Exclusive and the Exclusive didn't come around until later. | |
 Volkswagen Kübelwagen Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | Did you know that 'Kübel' is German for 'bucket'? Yup-yup, this is the Vee Dub Bucket. | |
 Citroën C5 Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | Using a tuned up version of the 3 litre V6 (ES9) used in the Xantia. Hydractive suspension set real low, as you would. The hydractive suspension was derived from the hydropneumatic suspension, tested on the rear axle of the Traction Avant 15H test car before being used in the 1955 DS19. Now there's two cars that Polyphony should really have tried introducing to GT6 | |
 Citroën Xantia Gran Turismo 6 (2013) | 'Xantia' from 'Xanthos' meaning 'yellow' or 'blonde' in Greek . . . I have no idea why they wanted to call it blonde, but there you have it. -- Last edit: 2016-05-03 18:24:51 | |
