    Hi
    Has there been any discussion to update the Gt3 class to.current models?
    I realize Reiza is a small team and this is probably not the most urgent thing to do but just wondering if this was already planned.
    991 to 992. M6 to M4. 720 and AMG would be relatively simpler I imagine, since their body has not changed much.

    i think each car model has its own licence in most (if not all) manufacturers. even if there is an "update" (ie AMG GT3 2015 -> AMG GT3 Evo 2020, Audi R8 LMS Evo GT3 2019 -> Audi R8 LMS Evo II GT3 2022) or a different car/model (Ferrari 488 Evo -> 296, BMW M6 -> BMW M4)

    devs of another sim confirmed that many times.

    not sure if (all) manufacturers have the same licences policy with all devs or if there are different licences types per dev or per price. all i can guess is that its a matter of money. ;)

    I see... I guess it's time for a modding team to make a felanzo 488 or a Bayer M4. ;)

    You're right, I completely ignored that new GT3 cars were mentioned :D So I retract my statement that nothing was announced ^^

    Here's the quote:
    "Endurance racing is the next frontier we are looking to explore with AMS2, as along with the track and some dedicated endurance features users may expect a very exciting list of new cars to come to the sim, including some 2023 LMDh Hypecars & LMPs along with a fresh batch of 2023 GT3 cars.in anticipation for next year´s event."

    We've had a Aston Martin and Lamborghini GT3 in the files forever now. So this being a paid pack, I would assume they would show up there?

    Maybe a Corvette C8R GT3? Either the IMSA retrofitted model of the GTE car or the new GT3 car as they look almost identical minus the GT3 having wider hips...

    Unlikely, but hoping the Ford Mustang GT3 comes to the game.

    If the Straight 4 Games partnership includes sharing licences, the Audi R8 GT3 evo is a possibility. (Audi is also likely a necessity for the Mid 2000's era Lemans pack if it includes LMP900 so I would say this is likely)

    There's no reason we couldn't/wouldn't see a fictional GT3, (maybe put into GT Open) so you might see a Puma GT3? Worlds your oyster really...

    Looking forward to the LMDh and LMH models.
