Love the tach! Wonder if they will keep it like that...... Second video down.

From what I can see it looks like it redlines at 7k, but he is shifting at 8k. Might be a pretty good idea of what we will see on the production car.

Serious question because I see this a lot. Do the video game developers somehow have access to information that we the consumer do not?

Why are we looking at a video game and assuming what we see reflects a car that hasn't been released yet?

I think they had special access to the GT-R and actually helped design the Multi Function Display on it. Don't know if they have a Toyota connection or not.

Also the game developer has seen what's under the hood of FT86

Totally. Kazunori Yamauchi is a HUGE car fan. Like he said above, Polyphony Digital helped develop the gauges for the R35. I dont think its very many game developers, by Yamauchi has played a huge influence in Japanese car culture. He isnt going to make something up and put it into one of his cars in GT5. What you see is most likely going to function like it would in the real car.

Whats up with the window in the pillar? :iono:

thats the FT86 concepts interior 100%, doesnt mean it will be like that in production. fav bit from the 1st time i saw the gauge cluster was the track map :D

the thing on the A pillar is a little window reffer to attach 2,3,4,6

I wouldn't go so far as to say that is how the production car will be exactly, but he does have a Toyota connection. He drove the IS-F in the Nurburgring 24hr races this year and last, and IIRC works in conjunction to deliver the Data logger visualization technology.

p.s. Just watched the video;

a) It's old

b) The driver sucks.

How is it old? This is the first time there has been video of the FT86's gauges in GT5. And yes, the driver sucks very much.

From around TAS.

Tokyo Auto Salon? Where is the GT5 video of inside the cockpit?

Not sure how I feel about that little window. It's somewhat cool but a bit pointless and it's reducing the structure of the pillar. I doubt that'll make the D.O.T cut.

Yeah no sh*t! If they are going to debut a game, at least have someone who can get past the first corner! :burnrubber:
