NSX GT500 is Great, Volvo Returns! | GT7 1.48 May Update Review | Civic SiR-II, R31 GTS-R, 240 Wagon 

Volvos are cool tbh,I'd like to see more of them. S60 and the 850 would be cool

That EG & Brick wagon ❤

Whatever track Polyphony is working on better blow us away this coming month. Be it Motegi, Red Rock or something else, I just want this game to expand instead of retreading the same update plan. Still these cars are beautiful, cheers👍

This is probably the best update so far in 2024, all 5 cars are great particularly the V40 since I wasn't expecting much from it. The only real downside of course is not having a circuit but otherwise the update is still pretty good and very fun especially with that 240 Wagon (or Estate if you wanna call it that instead).

You can also add the newer front turn signal lights on the Volvo 240 in the livery editor.

Oh boy. There is quite a bit to say about this update, and I'm typing down these thoughts before these future videos get uploaded, such as the engine swaps and car reviews. For now, I want to go over by far the most surprising thing about this update. They remembered other track variations exists! There's a single player race at Autopolis Short, Maggiore West, and St Croix A. First times these tracks are ever used in this capacity. Which begs the question: *Why did it take them this long?* I don't know about anyone else, but I felt ever since GT4 introduced Tsukuba, Gran Turismo has increasingly got more ignorant of track variations, primarily focusing on just the main tracks. Considering some of the most fun tracks in GT for me are on the short side, like Clubman Stage Route 5, Grand Valley East, Seattle short, and even the West End variant of Maggiore in this game, I can't help but feel annoyed that PD includes these tracks to pad out the circuit lists, and barely does anything with them. They expect us to create our own races using these tracks either online or using Custom Races, but we aren't given a reason to care about the dozens of variations of Maggiore, and all the other short tracks they create. This is just a small dose of a much longer rant in my mind of how Gran Turismo treats track variations, but the main point here is we never got a single new track for half a year now, and this could've been the perfect opportunity to include more short tracks in these races to give more variety to the single player experience. But instead, we keep getting the races on the same versions of Suzuka, Grand Valley, Le Mans, Monza, knowing there are way more shorter tracks. And only NOW did they finally remembered.

I’ve already made a copy of my dad’s old 940 Turbo with the 240, I do hope they add a 940 Turbo at some point

I was really hoping a Museum would be added for Volvo in Brand Central, but I guess I have to wait until next month....

Its not a bad update, i like the number of cars in the update. 5 is a good number to have

Volvo V40!! In rebel blue! A dream come true.🎉

NSX GT500, 120 ballast, set it back a few notches and this beadt destroys the LaMans grind.

Glad to hear the Honda is good, I'm going to check all the new cars out later. Thanks for showing off all the visual mods for each of them in a quick way too!

This is the best set of cars we have received this year.

Ho-ly! I love the Volvo wagon, it's so much fun to slide around, cruise and I adore being able to put some clean foggies on a car.

So happy with the NSX! It has been the car I had most been looking forward to for months and it's amazing! Happy we have the full GT500 trio now!

Great update obviously no track not surprising..hopefully get least 2 before GT8

awesome you did a Team Kunimitsu build , I did too it looks really good in this livery 👍 the 08 NSX is amazing also

Sleeper wagon build time haha

Some sort of a AI difficulty update would be nice, ultimate difficulty or something like that

One thing I noticed with the 240 was that the graphics in chase cam were pretty bad for gt standards, especially the interior...

AN ENGINE SWAP FOR THE SILEIGHTY?! FUCKING FINALLY

I get what you might be suggesting about the R31, being priced as a legendary. However, look at the clear-cut case of the R32, now becoming a saught after time piece. Still in the used car dealership but priced over 100k.

I am so hyped about the 240

the best car is the Nissan GTSR

How do you add the "offset" front registration plate?

I haven't used the GTR or NSX yet but I am soooo disappointed in the other offerings. Both vehicles and engine swaps. Tuned to 600pp NONE of them are competitive at the Tokyo event. I was really looking fwd to the Volvo offerings.

the R31 is lovely, but the speed warning sound above 100 km/h really drove me nuts, I wonder why it's not audible in this video

Of all these cars I liked the Volvo V40 most. Would be great if they can add in S90 in future and light bars if possible.

I've fully tuned the Skyline, but there's something wrong with the suspension, it's like it doesn't have enough castor it's like it gets stuck in the turn. I'll keep poking at it. Has anyone else had this problem?

I do wish they had some kind of drivetrain swap🎉🎉

I think the Volvo '95 T-5R Would have been better for this update because it was the fastest estate car on the planet, The only estate car in a Rally Car Championship in '94, 7,500 made in '95, 350 sold in Sweden only and British Old Bill bought a shed load of them so a very fast and a very rare care...lol.....Just my opinion guys.....💀🖤🤘💅

Kaz never fails to disappoint us by replacing some cars with less powerful versions of past models as he replaced the 240 GLT with the 240 SE. Why exactly does he replace great cars from past games with boring less powerful versions? It was the same with the giulia gta being replaced by the boring sprint v. So disappointing

Volvo 240 with engine upgrades and comfort soft tires are super fun! Didn't like that with Sports tires.

hello HSG Automotive

Hope you can swap the next gt500 motor into something. Be cool in civic or s2000

Its glory in vr

Have to have new track by August

You mention the Civic's price is dumb but there have been cases of pristine musem-quality examples - and we can consider GT7's models and rendering to be a museum-quality example - have indeed sold for over $30,000 USD. The price is dumb but it's honestly not that farfetched.

They should really add a fov slider

It's a shitbox update but not shit at all, EG Civic is the first non Type-R Honda badged Civic that's so Gran Turismo, 240 and R31 having similar spec and both are really responsive to tuning and fun to drive, it's even better than the versions in older games, Overall it's rather pleasing with the 3 oldies instead of the disappointment of no new tracks and no current SGT cars added

Don't worry Edward your car is here to help bella from vampire oo

Come on you know what that tow hook actually is right?

Man I need ps5 now lol

Fingers crossed for a 2J swap for the 240!

what engine is in the V40 T5 R-design

Bring GT Sport back from the light, Super GT!! 😡🤬

Nsx and Volvo 240 for me

Decent update besides the station wagon, wish we coulda gotten a newer gr3 or a track instead of a slot taken up by such a lame car lol

Like deployed.....

I bought those cars just for the craps and giggles.

👀i will be the one on part with reality here.. No circuit. five cars great but same old thing again.. those cars could have been in the game at launch... i don't see the point in playing anymore.. i can't afford most of the cars irl but as a car guy addon cars should have been new cars from at least last year!. and not virtual concept cars.. or irrelevant cars or one or two that play on emotions of old players.. 🤷😡😡.. stop it pd.. upscale this game before more fatigue kill this game.

For me, this is one of the worst updates we’ve ever had. Yes, there are 5 cars but none that I could care about. Besides the NSX, I don’t find any of them cool and the upgrades are mediocre. Normally the updates have something for everyone, I am someone who loves sports cars and super cars. As the engine swaps are for cars I would never use. I’ll come back next month for the first time in over a year.
