>Are there any cars in this that aren't out of production
I want to say all of them are out of production. The closest thing you can get is probably the Audi R8, but exists in the game as its concept version the Audi Le Mans quattro.

I seriously hate it.
What European dystopia do you live in where they ban old cars for not meeting new emissions standards? In the US you can get RX8s for around 3-5 grand all day long. Especially automatic ones, nobody wants them. Same as the convertible/non-turbo FC Rx7s, along with RX2s, RX4s, and RX5s.

Yeah... sounds like a great idea anon. Thanks for the sage wisdom.
>unlike the millions of RX3s and RX7s bought by broke teenagers who drove them into the ground and are now trying to flip them for 10x what they paid, even after the car has been sitting in a garage for 15 years
Stop being an idiot. The 'uncool' Mazda wankels are a lot less likely to have been flogged, and the driveline is the same as the 'cool' ones so most of the parts are interchangeable and thus cheap and easy to come by. You're gonna do apex seals no matter what, so do you want to pull apart a $3,000 Rx5 or a $13,000 Rx7? Your choice. Anon asked for a cheap wankel, so I listed em.
Paris and London have both explicitly banned cars older than about 10-15 years old from entering the city centres. Other major metropolitan areas in the EU are seriously considering doing the same.

Good thing big cities are shitholes and you should be grateful you don't have to go there. Even if you lived in one, the driving experience there is miserable so it doesn't matter what kind of car you have.
AC/Shelby Cobra, still in production as a 'continuation' kit car
Caterham 7, though the one in GT4 was a limited production model with a Honda Fireblade engine whilst modern ones have Hayabusa engine options
Chrysler 300C, though the GT4 one was pre-facelift
Daihatsu Copen, see Chrysler 300C
Cizeta V16, supposedly is still on a made-to-order basis
DeLorean, see Cizeta
Ford GT40, see Cobra
Gillet Vertigo, see Caterham
Infiniti G35, the G37/Q60 are still ultimately based on the G35 platform
Lancia Stratos, see Cobra
Nissan 350Z, see G35
Nissan GTR, the GT4 one was the 2001 concept car but I guess it counts because very little changed
RUF CTR, RUF recently started making them again, same as the old ones
Saleen S7, Saleen started making new ones to-order
Spyker C8, see Cizeta
Tommykaira ZZ, see Cizeta
Obviously not counting cars still in production but in a different generation (GT4 had the C5 Z06, but obviously no C8)
300C is done
Copen is a different car
The only Ford GT continuations I would call legit are the Holman & Moody Mk.IIs and the GT40 in GT4 is a Mk.I. (sort of). The Superperformance are just good replicas
De Lorean revivals are horseshit
Never seen a legitimate Stratos
To say you can buy a CTR would be to imply you can buy a 911 3.2
C8 is a different car
ZZ was killed off two years ago
The build to order cars are all debatable by virtue of where the frick you even might be able to road register them if they aren't a scam, saying the Nissans are the same is bullshit.
The DeLorean in GT4 was already a continuation car, one of the Texas ones with an upgraded drivetrain. That's why it's listed as a 2004 model year.
Stratos group 4 kit cars are being made, the only real difference is the engine (they usually use Alfa Romeo V6s from the 90s)
The new CTR is built entirely in-house by RUF, using reproduction parts.
It's not bullshit to point out that the Nissans still ride on (heavily updated) shared chassis. The GTR particularly is a standout, because it changed little from the concept car and the current one is basically only a mild facelift of the 2007 launch model.
I don't mean the GT-R. The 370Z is not nearly as much as the 350Z as it looks (meanwhile the new Z is more than it looks, but whatever), V36 is also changed substantially. Same concept, not really the same cars.
>grand autismo
Not sure but there isn't one that doesn't control like shit in this astroturfed series
your big fat ass is about to get rolled
This. Soulless AND bad gameplay. It's like morons just lke the cover arts and think journo scores matters
>Gran Turismo 4 was release 19 years ago
frick

Another discontinued because of emission laws. German cars are dead. Japan hasn't followed suit with how bad Europe has gotten but we'll see.
I'm sad that I missed my chance to ever have a mazda rx

ev is a scam, combustion engines aren't going anywhere
>stupid telemetry/tracking garbage
And wireless control/shutoff from people who don't like you at very inconvenient moments.
Looking forward to a black market of surveillance free motor vehicles
You can't go buy a second hand RX8 right now?
banned because of emission standards

In most Euro states you don't pay tax/you get a free pass for emission testing if your car is old enough
Paris and London have both explicitly banned cars older than about 10-15 years old from entering the city centres. Other major metropolitan areas in the EU are seriously considering doing the same.
Good thing big cities are shitholes and you should be grateful you don't have to go there. Even if you lived in one, the driving experience there is miserable so it doesn't matter what kind of car you have.
Are you seriously asking if they still produce 2004 models of cars?
I mean including new versions... every line has been ended
If you're talking about if nameplates in the game are still ongoing today, then you have many, many examples.
>Chevrolet Corvette
>Ford Mustang
>Nissan GT-R
>Mazda MX-5 / Miata
>Subaru WRX STI
>Mercedes E Class
>BMW M3
>NSX and Supra recently came back
They were still manufacturing models from way back to the 70s. Pretty recently everything's been killed off.
Well you could probably get a new Zonda if you really wanted it. There's the concept version of the GT-R.
I can't hear you; I'm drivin', got a lotta wind blowin'. Give me a minute an' I'll pull over.
>Are there any cars in this that aren't out of production or banned?
Absolutely.
I prefer this one. Predates it and has better engine sounds.
