Trivia[]
- Ironically, the TRD 3000GT is one of the cars featured in the event, despite the fact the car is a factory-tuned car rather than a pure stock model. This, along with the player's ability to enter the Mazda éfini RX-7 A-Spec (FD) '96 and NISMO 400R '96 in addition to the TRD 3000GT, occurs because the aforementioned cars are seen as normal cars by the game and there is no separate distinction for factory tuned cars until Gran Turismo 4.
