Trivia[]
- The bodywork, wheels, and interior of this car appears to be based on the Toyota GAZOO Racing TOYOTA 86 ♯166 '12, although the livery used is different.
- The TGR GT Cup 2023 livery is based on the livery used by the Toyota GR010 HYBRID '21, and was previewed in Toyota Gazoo Racing's website before it was added to the game.
- The Toyota 86 does have a GT4 version in real life, built by GPRM, a British engineering firm. Despite Toyota's close relation with the car's development, it is not considered a works car. The car finished development and raced in British GT while Gran Turismo Sport was in development. In addition, GPRM's car is turbocharged while the Gr.4 car is naturally aspirated.
- Steller Engineering later continued development of the car for 2017 British GT season, based on the facelift model of the 86.
- This car is one of five Gr.4 cars to have an engine swap option available (since version 1.52), the others being the BMW M4 Gr.4 (since version 1.49), the Bugatti Veyron Gr.4 (since version 1.46), the Honda NSX Gr.4 (since version 1.46) and the Nissan SILVIA spec-R AERO (S15) Touring Car (since version 1.26).
- A separate instance (internally) of the car used in the Olympic Virtual Series grand finals features a different steering wheel without the Gazoo Racing logo in the steering wheel, pursuant to IOC's third-party/commercial branding policy. (It is unknown if other logos, such as the Racelogic logo on a data logger device within the cockpit, were altered, as the race featuring the car was a night race, meaning that it was too dark to judge.) This version is not available outside of the event, similar to the GT Academy versions of certain Nissan cars in PlayStation 3-era games.
The cockpit used in the regular Olympic Virtual Series version of the car. Note the missing Gazoo Racing logos on the OVS version's steering wheel.
Notes[]
- ↑ As GT Sport's servers has been shut down on January 31, 2024, and as the last Manufacturer Series race in GT Sport was held on December 25, 2021, it is no longer possible to obtain the car this way.
