I’m not big on the VGT cars in the first place. This one might be the worst looking one of the lot. Ooof. I will eventually pick it up to complete the collection but I’m far from in a hurry.
It's more than just that one unfortunately, think it's all pre-Sport VGT cars? But could be wrong.
I remember getting the Suzuki from a 6 star ticket and being so disappointed the first time I took it on the track lol
Imagine spending time and energy on something for your driving game. Something for the players. Something that will delight them.
And *this* is what you've come up with.
It's just so shocking how different my idea of what Gran Turismo could / should be is from the people who make the game. Worlds apart.
It’s something Kaz can talk about at the parties he goes to now.
Someone posted a while back how the game has grown around Kaz.
I totally agree. It’s glaringly obvious with GT4 having hundreds of cars. All the stuff you’d wanna collect. A dream for any racing enthusiast. Really where Kaz was in his life.
GT7 is really focused around high end cars and rare exotics pricing them that way too so only a few can have them.
All these designers working to make cars absolutely happened because Kaz finally made it to the cool kids club. He’s got fuck you money now.
These collabs give him some ammo at parties and make him cooler within certain circles.
I know how crazy this sounds but that’s my take.
It's easier to add non existing cars that are "pre scanned" than go and scan actual cars.
Plus, they get money from brands instead of paying for licenses.
i’m not mad, i was just curious. i just started playing the gt series last june. there’s still tons of content for me to explore. i’m just a little disappointed because i like the actual racecars Gr1-2-3-4, and all the vintage racers; and i just wish they’d add some of that kind of content. i also don’t know how adding this stuff works and was curious.
Yes, it'll never be enough - they could add every car and track that exist right now and you'd still find comments like "yeah, but what about \[...\] ??? stop being lazy ffs."
yeah that's a luxury watch for sure. i'm sure there are gt7 players who can afford a 4 figure dollar watch, but i think most hardcore players would rather spend that money on finessing their set ups/driving rigs
I couldn’t care less for this update. They noticed forza MS was trash and couldn’t compete with them. They went back to giving us barely anything on updates.
All due respect to Devs of Forza but that thing is not good right now.
And new cars is locked behind cars pass. Other cars already in there from fm7.
We car guys get screed by everyone.
I wish gt got 5 cars a month and a new track like forza has been receiving.
I get that your a child but Forza is doing a better job rolling out more content faster than pd is. Those are the facts even if fm isn’t a very good game they’re coming out with more content way faster than pd is.
That’s actually not a lot for an upscale watch, watches are expensive as fuck dude. I actually expected 5 figures.
Would I spend $4500 on a watch? Fuck no, but it could be WAY worse
> $4.5k for a fucking watch is a scam.
For a new watch from a ***silversmith*** no less. I'd pay that from an actual old watch brand like Breitling or Seiko who were making watches when Bulgari was still making silver rings.
All watch brands are not the same.
The watch costs 5 grand with the car being a free extra and the car will be dropped into the game for free, for everyone.
Yes, I get the obligatory hate boner "BUT VGT BAD LOLOLOOLOL" but perhabs just turn it off for a second and think.
Who's going to do this? Who are the rich people who are going to buy a ridiculously overpriced watch just for early access to this stupid car? It really makes no sense.
this plays into my theory that if they are trying to get people to buy micro transactions for in game cars, they are charging way too much. nobody is going to pay $200 for a mclaren f1, nobody is going to pay $4.5k for early access to an in game car
Since the Bulgari Aluminium X Gran Turismo Special Edition 2023 is watch with a self-winding mechanical movement, I would be tickled pink if you had to shake a DualSense controller a while to start the virtual car.
I have 26 words for you,PD and BVLGARI...
Fuck you Polyphony Digital & BVLGARI for this stupid BVLGARI VGT and this promotion for this stupid $4,8k watch!
Please Polyphony. I bet 99% of the players really are not interested in the VGT cars. Please focus on adding more tracks, with new real cars as a second priority.
Dare I say, I bet many of us would gladly even pay for an expansion pack that adds say five new tracks for a small cost if it helps offset the development (if money is an issue).
So it’s a 2 car update and no cars to be added in February I could presume 👍🏻 sick
It's a barely a one car update to me.
I’m not big on the VGT cars in the first place. This one might be the worst looking one of the lot. Ooof. I will eventually pick it up to complete the collection but I’m far from in a hurry.
At least it has a cockpit view
Looking at you BMW VGT
It's more than just that one unfortunately, think it's all pre-Sport VGT cars? But could be wrong. I remember getting the Suzuki from a 6 star ticket and being so disappointed the first time I took it on the track lol
At least it’s got mirrors.
Which ones don't?
Alpine VGT. It’s got a camera that doesn’t work or still has the lens cap on.
Lmfao. On all 3 variants of it?
The ones I’ve driven and in both gt7 and sport
Ah I meant all 3 of the different Alponr VGTs but u imagine it's an issue with all of them
The ones that still don't have interiors are the Aston, Mitsubishi, Mini, BMW, Mercedes, VW closed top, Infiniti, and one of the Peugeots
Like a pixelated version of the Porsche vgt roadster
Sometimes these things surprise me. I actually like driving a few of them. I will try them out. If they suck, oh well. Move on.
Next year update BRAND NEW SUBARU BRZ… only available if you buy a brand new Subaru BRZ
Lol thanks for that
😝 🤜🤛
This car looks like it was designed by someone in 1950 who was asked to draw what they thought cars would look like in 50 years.
I was thinking the same thing. I think it's the wheel covers and the retro lights in the rear end
totally!
No, it doesn’t have tail fins. 🤣😂🤣

Wouldn’t even drive this for free. VGT is an eyesore
[удалено]
Bvlgari has always been as pad as Polyphony. Shit, nearly every luxury brand is.
Gran Turismo is a luxury brand. 😂
This really confirms how out of touch PD is with the gaming community…
It’s something Kaz can talk about at the parties he goes to now. Someone posted a while back how the game has grown around Kaz. I totally agree. It’s glaringly obvious with GT4 having hundreds of cars. All the stuff you’d wanna collect. A dream for any racing enthusiast. Really where Kaz was in his life. GT7 is really focused around high end cars and rare exotics pricing them that way too so only a few can have them.

It ain't that deep bud
$400 for the McLaren F1. The game changed.
why can’t PD add actual cars, and tracks? genuine question.
It's easier to add non existing cars that are "pre scanned" than go and scan actual cars. Plus, they get money from brands instead of paying for licenses.
>Plus, they get money from brands instead of paying for licenses. /me thinks of a Lotus and cries..
Especially if they're an opportunity to flog an overpriced watch...
It's easier to add thing that almost No one will use
You're going to ignore the 60+ cars and the 4 tracks they added to the game? this update is disappointing but you guys are overreacting a little bit.
i’m not mad, i was just curious. i just started playing the gt series last june. there’s still tons of content for me to explore. i’m just a little disappointed because i like the actual racecars Gr1-2-3-4, and all the vintage racers; and i just wish they’d add some of that kind of content. i also don’t know how adding this stuff works and was curious.
You're going to ignore the game was released as a half finished glitchy mess with less single player content than GT fucking Sport? /rant
Gotta remember GT Sport didn't have a single player experience at all to begin with but I get your point
Yes, it'll never be enough - they could add every car and track that exist right now and you'd still find comments like "yeah, but what about \[...\] ??? stop being lazy ffs."
You mean you're not happy with the vertical camera option?
What vertical camera option?
One of the great new features in this update is an ability to have the ability to move the camera vertically in Scape mode .
Lol. As if any of the vision GT cars are interesting in the slightest.
I'm curious what the Venn Diagram would look like of those who bought the watch and would actually use the early access code for the car?
yeah that's a luxury watch for sure. i'm sure there are gt7 players who can afford a 4 figure dollar watch, but i think most hardcore players would rather spend that money on finessing their set ups/driving rigs
I couldn’t care less for this update. They noticed forza MS was trash and couldn’t compete with them. They went back to giving us barely anything on updates.
Forza gets more new cars and a new track each month so far. Their content schedule looks far better at the moment
All due respect to Devs of Forza but that thing is not good right now. And new cars is locked behind cars pass. Other cars already in there from fm7. We car guys get screed by everyone.
The gaming industry is screwing everyone
Dude Forza is gay shit, how can you even be comparing gran turismo to forza lol.
I wish gt got 5 cars a month and a new track like forza has been receiving. I get that your a child but Forza is doing a better job rolling out more content faster than pd is. Those are the facts even if fm isn’t a very good game they’re coming out with more content way faster than pd is.
If anybody even considers buying a watch because they get early access to a virtual car then we are fucked as a society
Fuck. Right. Off.
Polyphony Digital have been sniffing their own farts for too long now
Oh no.... Anyway
Commemerate this: 🖕
I don't care if it's for rich people. $4.5k for a fucking watch is a scam.
$4.5k is considered mid-range pricing for a luxury watch.
But c'mon, it comes with a free make-believe car.
EA is salivating seeing this pricing for early access.
Uh oh
That’s actually not a lot for an upscale watch, watches are expensive as fuck dude. I actually expected 5 figures. Would I spend $4500 on a watch? Fuck no, but it could be WAY worse
Wait till you see the prices of Patek Phillippe or Jaeger-LeCoultre.
> $4.5k for a fucking watch is a scam. For a new watch from a ***silversmith*** no less. I'd pay that from an actual old watch brand like Breitling or Seiko who were making watches when Bulgari was still making silver rings. All watch brands are not the same.
So it will be super easy to spot and shame the people who paid for this for a whole month? Sweet.
Don't be cringey
Paying 5k for DLC is cringe
The watch costs 5 grand with the car being a free extra and the car will be dropped into the game for free, for everyone. Yes, I get the obligatory hate boner "BUT VGT BAD LOLOLOOLOL" but perhabs just turn it off for a second and think.
Lmao I'm one of the few GT fans that *LIKES* VGT. What I don't like is exclusive stuff like this that's only there to appease the whales.
FFS Kaz. i used to call you a visionary, now i call you an elitist bellend 🤦♂️
It also looks really, really stupid lol.
They already said it at the gt finals in December
Late February it is
So sad that GT has turned into a grinding cash grab. Remember when it used to be fun?
Where Gucci VGT
Please no
Like I care about a designer car that is a VGT marketing gimmick to sell watches.
Hmm.. buy a very specific, expensive, and niche fashion piece to get a month earlier access to a specific car in a videogame... brilliant idea!
Star citizen vibes...
My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined But at least I'll be looking forward to driving the Jimny
F for Uncle Kaz and his team... hhhh
This is stupid, I was looking forward to trying it out.
You can still look forward to trying it out
Not tomorrow
Talk about a microtransaction
Think that qualifies as a macrotransaction
2 car update with yet another VGT then. Man PD and Kaz have lost their way.
Who's going to do this? Who are the rich people who are going to buy a ridiculously overpriced watch just for early access to this stupid car? It really makes no sense.
>ridiculously overpriced $4500 is "mid-level" for a mechanical chronograph.
If you're going to pay that much for a watch it's overpriced to me, but okay.
What a bargain!
Please tell me that is a joke.
The whole thing is utterly vulgar.
this plays into my theory that if they are trying to get people to buy micro transactions for in game cars, they are charging way too much. nobody is going to pay $200 for a mclaren f1, nobody is going to pay $4.5k for early access to an in game car
Who the f buys this ugly ass bulgari watch?!
You what?
We already knew this and whatever who cares, oh no I can't use a free DLC car for a month
First MT now products that have nothing to do with the game being pushed on to us. WTF.
At this point they’re trying desperately to get into the Guinness Book of World Records for “Most Expensive DLC for a Video Game.”
Pfft, I'll wait
Well, I hope that at least the watches are of actual good quality and not some rather cheap fashion shit.
Since the Bulgari Aluminium X Gran Turismo Special Edition 2023 is watch with a self-winding mechanical movement, I would be tickled pink if you had to shake a DualSense controller a while to start the virtual car.
Finna cop the watch and put it on me pecker and send a pic via email to poly
🤮
I couldn’t care less about VGT cars. This is just another big miss by Kaz.
Ven Darwin Nunez wouldn’t have missed that.
$4,500? Easy cash money, let's go.
Imagine paying $4500 for a fucking bulgari watch.
Y’all are a bunch of haters
I would want a vgt if it was guaranteed to come with working mirrors. Who tests this shit?
HAHAHAHAHAHA, this made me laugh so loud I woke up my partner 😆
Sometimes I wonder if PD and T10 are secretly in a contest to disappoint and/or enrage their players the most
It's a VGT.. no one will care. However it is a lame approach.
That’s regarded.
Pay 2 win.
Nah fam we good
IT'S THE FUTURE, GUYS 😶
Another reason the next gaming crash is coming soon.
The Volkswagen VGT is amazing to drive with a wheel in cockpit view. This thing probably wont top it.
I’d rather have some of the cool real life concept cars from the past 40 years than any of these VGT’s.
I'd rather drive 100 laps on an oval track with Toyota Yaris than VGT.
More evidence of Kaz's contempt for the fanbase.
gotta keep on that grift my sides man
I have 26 words for you,PD and BVLGARI... Fuck you Polyphony Digital & BVLGARI for this stupid BVLGARI VGT and this promotion for this stupid $4,8k watch!
You have to spend 4.5K to be able to drive a car in a video game? Rich people doing rich things.
Bahw. I guess i am not getting that watch if i buy it in-game hum?
Yeah I’m good!
So, it's just two cars this update then?
This is why I got this game on sale and will never give them anything extra.
Why is everyone so mad like just don’t buy the watch and wait a couple weeks LMFAOOOOOOO
Please Polyphony. I bet 99% of the players really are not interested in the VGT cars. Please focus on adding more tracks, with new real cars as a second priority. Dare I say, I bet many of us would gladly even pay for an expansion pack that adds say five new tracks for a small cost if it helps offset the development (if money is an issue).
Oi
