Gran Turismo 4 in 1:24

[malsheem]

Okay, I figure everyone is chomping at the bit for GT4 at this moment, so why not start a thread, it's going to happen anyway as talk of GT4 has started popping up in other threads? This is modeling related, in case mods feel the need to move it.

Just a few more hours, well, at least for the US folks. I'm passing the time looking over the car list, not to see what to drive, but to see what to make in 1:24. I've always found some of GT's concept LM editions kind of cool, like the S2000 LM Edition from GT3 with the 4 center lights. I'm sure GT4 will be abound with many of them. Here are a few that caught my eye on the car list.

2001 : RX-8 Concept LM Race Car
2002 : NISMO Fairlady Z S-tune Aero concept by GRAN TURISMO (Z33)
2002 : Fairlady Z Concept LM Race Car (Z33)

Now I have no idea what these look like, but will soon. Then I can get an idea of what to make. I'll definitely have at least one GT4-related project soon. Anyone else?

I want to make some chicanes to put my motorsport and weekend warrior (read: all but the truck) models on. Does that count? The S curve from the end of Apricot Hill would be prettiest in my estimation.

I'll believe that when I see it.

I predict a slow down around here for the coming week(s).

Hell yea, the S curve at the end of Apricot Hill is very nice, or something challenging like the corkscrew at Laguna Seca< Worst turn to go down with a Viper I plan on doing several Honda's from the game. Even an S2000 But first, I need the game. I am still unaware of all the cars that are going to be on the game. So if anyone can share a link to the list or something, it would be cool

How many times have they delayed that thing? 6? You can wait till May (but most definitely longer) while we enjoy GT4. As for better ... graphics will almost certainly be better ... online play will give it more than GT4 (assuming it pans out as that is the reason for the delays) ... game mechanics (which is the most important aspect), it's doubtful it will offer anything better or even on par with GT4. But we'll see.

Here is the Japanese version car list. I'm sure the US version will be nearly identical.

We Brits have to wait till 9 March 2005 for the release.
so enjoy guys, at least I can still make models for a bit longer.

+1. No way Forza is better than GT4 as a whole.

I remember Chris saying he wanted to make that funky Z33 Nismo S-Tune bodykit. I guess it grows on you because at first I hated it. Now, I kinda like it.

Laguna Seca.......my favorite track. I've tuned all my cars on this track. Love it!

I still haven't gotten around to building the models of the cars I loved in GT1!!!

Forza wasn't formally announced until late 2003 and has undergone only two delays, and the most recent one was primarily to avoid getting lost in the GT4 sales volley.

I'm an Xbox owner, and while I've been a Gran Turismo supporter for sometime I'm afraid that the only tempting things in GT4 are the Triumph Spitfire and the Jaguar XJR-9LM.

I'm much more excited about driving a Ferrari 333SP at Seca in Forza come May. I tried it in a demo and it was both true to life and incredibly difficult. I loved every moment.

Interesting they would list an RX-8 LeMans concept, since rotary engines aren't able to compete at LeMans.
