As a fan of TDU1 and TDU2 it warms my heart to see that it featured so many uncommonly featured vehicles. It really gave that community a lot of interesting variety. Also, the MK3 Belvedere is also in the game "The Long Drive", it's just not called that as the game doesn't have any official licensing for the vehicles, but the models are very clearly real vehicles by fake names.

Now this is pod racing!
You can always count on this series to bring along a car you've never heard of before! Praise the almighty POD!
I could recommend some cars, the VW Phaeton from Midnight Club 3, Nissan Z Concept from Gran Turismo 3, Holden HSV GTS Coupe from Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2 and the Chevrolet Astro from Enthusia Professional Racing (or pretty much most family vans of the game). If any of these cars are featured in more than two games and I'm wrong, please correct me.

The Callaway Sledgehammer In PGR4 was just an absolute beast for a C Class car and a very handful one as well with all torque and power.
@Skumtomten1

That car is actually legendary. It hold the record for the fastest, highest top speed, street legal car for over 20 YEARS. Thats insane, the previous one was the famous RUF Yellowbird, but the Sledgehammer managed to reach around 254 mph as a street legal car in the 80s. Thats insane took over 20 years untill another car beat it. The car was a modified C4 corvette, so it was denied a guinness world record since it was not considered a production car, but it was still street legal. Don't know why not more games features this awesome car, maybe licensing issues? Anyway yea, it was amazing in C class in pgr4, also really hard to beat the platinum Sledgehammer if you were in another car. The C class was my favorite class in that game as well, it had the Yellowbird and an awesome Lamborghini Miura concept car that sadly never made it into production in real life.
11:31 Another interesting fact about the third-gen Belvedere, although I suppose it wasn't directly related to the car's marketing, was that one was buried in a vault in Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1957 for what was the state's 50th birthday. It was dug back up 50 years later in 2007. However, the vault's construction was not sufficient and allowed groundwater into the vault, which severely damaged the car. It would take another ten years for the car to find a permanent home and it is currently on display at a car museum in Illinois.

As an avid blur fan, I've always played with Astra as it is very quick and handles perfectly
In this video we see several repeated trends: · Porsche making a "concept racecar" for regulations that will never ever exist and they'll never ever build · A Microsoft game having unnecessary American tuner cars · KTM doing yet another concept version of the X-Bow that they'll never ever build · Aston Martin becoming the 9765th manufacturer to build a stupid version of a car just so they can claim they're a "Nurburgring 24h class winner"... of a class that probably only had 3 entries and 2 were made of half-drunk German electricians
I'm so glad you showed the BA Falcon Not enough recognition is given to the absolute gems Ford Australia and Holden produced and we need to see them in more racing games
In the PS1 game Vanishing Point theres a Ford Windstar and a Mercury Sable; I dont think they were ever featured in a game ever again lol
Keep up the great evolutions 👍
Epic vid as always👍
That W12 looks so cool
You should do a video on times when real cars appeared in games where real cars aren't commonly licensed, like the Porsche 911 in Cyberpunk 2077
Finally someone remembering the 918 rsr
There is a very rare car in Live for Speed (a not very known simulator) that has a finnish car called Valmet Raceabout. That's the only licenced non race car in the game, the rest are old BMW Formula Cars. I think that's the only racing game that it was featured in

Glad to see the Opel Astra Extreme make an appearance. Blur, my beloved.
i had never met you in the last year that happened, now i got here.
I hope the next episode in this series includes the Toyota Supra VeilSide Fortune 99 & 03, both of which were only in Forza Motorsport 1 & 2 (i could be wrong, but i believe that is the case). I nicknamed the VeilSide Fortune 99 (or, at least I believe this is the right car, as i haven't played FM1 in a very long time) "The Jackhammer", because it had just over 1,000 hp, but would go 0-60 mph (0-100 kph) in around 6-7 seconds. Anyways, great job on the video! 👍

I'm sure Enthusia Professional racing has lots of Unicorn cars. For example, Toyota Estima Hybrid, Chevy Astro Van, Renault Avantime, Honda Insight (1st gen), De tomaso Pantera GTS, Honda Mobilio, and a a chinese car with a weird hieroglyph logo and model name Subaru Young SS. I recommand you trying it, if you didn't

The W12 never reaching production is one of the biggest disappointments in car history. It’s like the Veyron but for actual racing not being pretentious.
10:25 this car sounds so damn cool. A v12, 4 door gt car that's hydrogen powered and twin turboed 😅
When you make volume 10, you should make a compilation from volume 1 to volume 10
15:38: *So that’s why it’s only in Race Driver: Grid*
5:30 Note there was also a Ford Fiesta S1600 in WRC 05 Extreme
How do you get the camera to rotate like that in GT4?

Interesting Facts The Japan Region (NTSC-J) GT Concept 2001 Tokyo also includes the Toyota pod. Naturally, pod race is also implemented, but the messages in the handbrake area are different. *おすわりしました!* *I'm sitting!* This is displayed as a message in the handbrake area. The word "おすわり" literally means that the car sits down. It is one of the first words you will not see in future GT series.
