Buick GNX

It shouldn't have been changed in the first place. And a mistake repeated is still a mistake. Thing is if someone who really knows about these cars comes along and sees that I've made the entry are going to assume I'm the one that goofed and called it a 'Buick GNX'.

And yes.

www.igcd.net/vehicle.php?id=83925

Here is a Buick Regal GNX that's been painted yellow (noted as a GNX by the vents in the front wings.)

Again . . . Estate is not the model. 240 is the model. Estate is the body type.

The 240 Series was available in 2 or 4 door saloon (sedan) or estate (station wagon).

Do you see any other GNXs listed as Regals on IGCD? No? I thought not. There's no need to change it to regal.

They didn't have to change it. The first entry was not only fine it was accurate. They've changed it to an inaccurate version.

Thing is I've met GNX purists who pulled this sort of stuff before. They honestly think it's a totally separate car. They don't like being reminded it's a Buick Regal because they think the Regal is below them.

This is almost as bad as that one person who smugly corrected me when I correctly identified the 425cc Citroën 2CV as a Type AZ and not a Type A as Polyphony called it.

I know this was going to happen. "It says Buick GNX in the game." Thing is Polyphony don't always get it 100% right.

In real life this car is a Buick Regal GNX (Grand National Experimental). As you can see in the link below, for a 1987 Buick Regal Turbo-T, it's same car apart from wheels, trim and edition name.

s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/05/a7/ef/05a7eff026ae6807e651c587e3aa8470.jpg

It's only Polyphony and crazy Regal GNX purists who think it's a different car.

In fact looking over the blurb in the game it even says right there the GNX was the Buick Regal GN's last hurrah.

Yeah . . . my two regrets is that I can't disguise the pixelation on the D-pillar and that I know I can do the intermediate in Deep Forest Raceway, but I just can't without wrinkling it's 'good looks'. She tends to slosh which isn't a bad thing and something I can usually turn to my advantage especially on a technical like this but she's too big and heavy to check mid-slosh without hitting someone. So for that reason you're seeing the Red Bull short ring.

And yes that's the Red Bull short ring, and yes that's the Beginner Seasonal (450pp), and yes that's a 2001 Honda NSX that's just been put into 2nd by a Citroën 2CV Type AZ, and no, I'm not being a troll.

Let me explain.

If you want to attempt this the trick is to forget the power. This is not your run of the mill stiffened race machine. Soften the hell outta the suspension, plan your approaches and exits carefully, find your rhythm, don't collide with traffic, use the ORZ's if you have to (remember that in F1 the only rule they have regarding over run zones is that you keep all four wheels in the box when passing the line¹) don't slow down and keep on the accelerator at all times.

NEVER BRAKE. I cannot stress this enough. After the chicanes before the back straight you'll notice you'll be catching up when they're braking far too early and far too hard. If you follow these guidelines you should be able to take 14th out of 16 on your first try. Then it's a matter of practise for you to find your own rhythm and you'll get ahead of the traffic and eventually ahead of the AI's 'Hero' car.

You should see real 2CV racing some time and you'll see what I mean. Search for "Sparrow 2CV" on Youttube (yeah it's got a BMW R Series but it's still an air cooled flat twin bike engine and most important the running gear is all stock.) And for those few who actually liked my jumping shots . . . look up "Seppe's Jump" on Youttube.

¹ just double checked that. There's been a recent change in F1 rules. The revised regulations for 2016 states drivers “must make every reasonable effort” to stay within track limits and must have a “justifiable reason” if they do leave the track. I think "Not colliding with and killing other drivers and myself" counts as a "justifiable reason".

Oh Gran Turismo, why must you do this. First they differentiate between premium cars and standard cars, and then they just add standard cars from one game to another without even looking whether the details are correct. Is Gran Turismo 6 just like 5 where they just had the Japanese Mazda Roadster, American MX-5 Miata and the European MX-5 all in the same game? (And ALL of the different versions? (And ALL of the cars with regional differences in names? :( ))

Do you realize the camera locks to this angle and is about impossible to change when taking a pic from this area? That's why it looks like this. It would take about 5 minutes of fine tuning to change it to that way! I agree with the edit from my comment you didn't see.

I guess that's a complaint with the game's photo mode then.

Game didn't call it one so I didn't do it. I also forgot FC in the chassis.

Do you know if the steering wheel is on the left or right side? It might be a mistake in regional versions, as it was called RX-7 outside of Japan. They might have switched the steering wheel to the other side but forgot to alter the text on the rear.

It's more of a side shot than a rear shot, I think it would be better if you could see both taillights.

Argh, I've edited it but forgot to change the class to Racecar.
And accidentaly left the chassis code "CN.AR750106" which is related only to this specific TZ2, since it's "105.11" instead for all the Giulia TZ1 and TZ2 models.

Removed the "Coachbuilt by Zagato" info since it's useless as TZ means "Tubolare Zagato" already.

Actually, EVERY car is unlockable but he Honda Fit. As the game forces you to buy that car before any others. Thus meaning you have to complete the first 1 or 2 races before you can buy any other cars


Urgh... why do i have to repeat myself once every 6 months? Its NOT unlockable! Unlockable means you get this car for free, either by cheats or by finishing a special objective (this i say for every game). What you mean is "purchaseable" and not "Unlockable". Putting an unlockable star on every car is completely useless and utterly stupid. So please, for the sake of humanity, stop putting Unlockable stars and "How to obtain fields" on GT6 cars... thank you!!

Btw, as you mention it: The Honda Fit could be considered "Unlockable", as you get it for free. Same goes for the Anniversary cars, you get them for free too.

All i have to do all day long is checking your GT6 contributions: Double entries (the Audi A3 3.2 quattro for example), naming mistakes and false "How to obtain" fields. I am slightly annoyed.

Blastolene Special

Gran Turismo 6 (2013)

speedfreak975 a écrit

Yes I know but it says Jay Teno :p


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.
