- Gran Turismo 7 features Tokyo Expressway as an urban city track location with multiple different layouts. However, the previous Gran Turismo games featured many more city tracks in a variety of real and fictional locations. Here you can see laps with different cars on 12 different city tracks from GT 1-6 that are not available in GT7 at this time.
Timeline:
0:00 Special Stage Route 5
1:30 Rome Circuit
3:03 Seattle Circuit
4:38 Tokyo R246
6:32 Opera Paris
8:15 New York
10:01 Hong Kong
11:38 Seoul Central
12:47 London
14:04 Circuito de Madrid
15:38 Special Stage Route 11
17:38 Côte d'Azur (Monte Carlo Circuit)
Special Stage Route 5 is a fictional night city track and it is one of the few tracks that were included in every game from GT1 to GT6. There is also a short version of it called Clubman Stage Route 5.
Special Stage Route 11 is a long city track that was exclusive to GT1 and GT3. The layout of the track was slightly changed between the two games. There is also Special Stage Route 7, which goes back and forth on a mostly straight highway.
The city of Rome had multiple completely different tracks. The original Rome Circuit shown in the video was featured in GT2 and GT3. It also had a short version.
GT2 also had a completely different track called Rome Night, which was very difficult and pretty obscure, since it only appeared in the final license and was barely used for races. Then there was another different Rome Circuit that appeared in GT5 and GT6.
Seattle Circuit was also introduced in GT2 and it also had a short version.
GT3 introduced Tokyo R246 (which is based on real roads in Tokyo) and the famous Monte Carlo Circuit from Formula 1, which is called Côte d'Azur in Gran Turismo. It also appears under different names in NFS Shift 2 and in Project Cars games.
Gran Turismo 4 had many interesting city tracks that didn't appear in any other main GT games, including New York, Hong Kong, Seoul Central and Opera Paris.
GT5 and GT6 had tracks in London and in Madrid.
What are your thoughts and memories of these awesome city tracks from GT 1-6? Which of them would you like to see return in GT7 at some point?

We need these tracks back. Tokyo Expressway is fun but having only highway city tracks gets repetitive.
Absolutely agree
@@wildannandawicaksana5004 SSR5, 11, RX, and R7 have been my favourite city tracks too. Even Emma Verde love SSR7 from GT6.
@@ryeb It's a direct reference to Shutokou Expressway, which has been referenced in media since the 90s due to its popular street racing scene.
Kaz confirmed that city tracks aren’t possible right now due to extreme difficulties with rendering building at high poly counts
@@mohnnadmercedes8246that didn’t seem to stop them before though. sounds like a weak excuse.
I miss Citta di Aria, such a wonderful and unique stage..
As someone who visits London regularly, I'm staggered as to how accurate they got everything. From Piccadilly Circus to Trafalgar Square to the theatres on Shaftesbury Avenue and even the Tesco Express just down from Piccadilly Circus, all of it absolutely spot on.
Those tracks all amazing.
Even has that Pret across the road from Trafalgar Square. I remember grabbing an overpriced sandwich from there last time I was in London.
Was it as Tasty as it was pricey? @@theblah12
It had Monaco? FFS Kaz, I bought an F1 game to drive Monaco, just bring it back.
Having cars from the same nationality of each track was a nice touch 👌
I was looking for this comment
For the most part, but Hong Kong had an RE Amemiya, Seoul Circuit had a 350z, Madrid had a Honda HSV and Cote d'Azur had a Ferrari F40.
For the most part, but he brought a Super GT Nissan to Seoul Central and a Super GT Honda to Spain Madrid.
But the Nissan 350Z isn't from Korea
Korea should be Protomotors Spirra but ok
I miss Special Stage Route 5 & 11 as well as Tokyo. Those were great and fun tracks that I loved playing for hours on end. If there is one that really sucked though, it was London. I could have done without that one. Also, I remember there being a completely different version of the Rome Circuit in GT5 too.
Yep, there are actually 3 completely different Rome tracks. Rome Circuit GT2/3, Rome Circuit GT5/6 and Rome Night in GT2.
SSR5 is iconic. I can’t believe they haven’t put it back in gt7.
@@ryeb SSR7 only focused on exclusive PS4 tracks.
@@Paragleiber as a diehard Nijigasaki fan, i miss all city tracks.
I love the Amalfi hillside city track too, from GT4. It's just such a beautiful setting for a very nice flowing track.
Gran Turismo 4 for me is still the best one of the series… I used to love when my mom would ask what I was playing in the middle of the night, and I would say either I’m driving in NY or Seattle… lol I also love London from GT5.
GT4 was killing it with the city tracks.
I really miss the tracks that were in the middle of cities like London and New York.
I hope they bring more tracks like Special Stage Route 5, Monte Carlo and Seattle. I miss those tracks so much.
I loved Seattle, but apparently part of the area it used has been developed since then, so it won''t be brought back as real life track.
They have to bring Special Stage Route 5 back! It's not just any city course, it's a legend course. A course that has been a staple in the series since the flippin' beginning. Even appearing in the Tourist Trophy spin-off! Granted, I know Sport didn't bring it back, I don't know why. But still! Special Stage Route 5 holds a place in the majority of Gran Turismo players' hearts they can't just not include it.
@@Sonicrunner2010 Special Stage R5 would have to change its overall environment for GT7 so that it would be set in a real life environment. Perhaps change the environment to Los Angeles, because Tokyo is already taken with Tokyo Expressway.
As for the remaining GT1 courses, I predict their locations are...
Autumn Ring: England
Special Stage Route 11: Singapore
Settle minus the jumps would be a no brainer. The special stages at night in vr would be amazing. Monte Carlo would be perfect for online racing
SSR11 is iconic Gran Turismo circuit. IMO this track should available in other racing games.
Above all the Endurance race in GT3 in the night amazing 😍😍
Loved racing on the Seattle, Tokyo R246, New York, Opera Paris, Seoul Central and Cote d Azur tracks on GT PSP!
i really don't understand why they don't just put some of these iconic tracks (and even PD's fictional closed circuit tracks like Grand Valley and Midfield) in GT7... but no we get Watkins Glen as our only new track in 8 months
I think it takes more time to update these tracks to modern graphics than people think. Update building models, lighting, possible make a few changes here and there to make the track work better for online racing, opponent ai has to work etc. I really hope we get more of them though.
the visuals of the hong kong track still look incredible to me!
I really miss Seattle circuit....so I just load up GT2 on my PS2 and dine on nostalgia with a side of Red Rock Valley.
Forgot how technical the Paris track was. Definitely would love that to come back along with the New York and Seattle tracks.
City tracks were some of the most creative in the series, in using real roads is so cool. I miss all of them, especially the ones that debuted on gt4.
No matter the hongkong circuit never exsisted and real life isn’t looking like that, I still miss GT4😭
Sleeping Dogs Hong Kong map looked like the track a bit so it's believable it looks like this irl.
Man, I hope the ones that were in GT3 and 4 come back at some point. These and the other ones shown in previous videos were great.
I always loved how aggressive the car sounds were in GT2. Not to mention the turbo spooling sound. Love it. Seattle circuit was great. I loved building a powerful car and hauling ass up and down those hills.
00:15 the BEST sound of turbo in all gran turismo
I want these tracks in Gran Turismo 7.
Excellent video. Very informative. Excellent driving too. All of these city tracks are masterpieces. I will never get tired of racing lap after lap through their turns and straights.
Madrid's track is exactly how it looks, buildings, parks, even the trees. They nailed it!!
The lack of SSR5 and SSR11 hurts a lot. I'm already sick of farming the Tokyo races
Thanks for sharing. Seeing all these tracks certainly takes me back in time. Loved racing on all these tracks. Wish we could get a couple back on GT7
The London and Seattle tracks were fantastic. The London one brought back amazing memories of playing MSR on the Dreamcast. I hope we see some of these city tracks as DLC for GT7.
I always found the engine sounds to be amusing... the car you're using for Madrid sounds like they hired Elmo (Sesame Street) to make the engine noises!
Unfortunately for Seattle, it has to be reworked as both the stadium and the monorail lines were demolished irl
I am very impressed! I've tried tracks like Madrid, Tokyo R246 and special stage route 7. Also nice job putting in all GT games in that video!
I miss all of these tracks. And I don't understand why they aren't in the new game or at least replaced with other city tracks.
I miss special route 7, it was great to reach 300 km/h in those beautiful raining nights, and I also liked it because GT cars controlled by A.I wold lose control and crash in the middle of the course and you had to think fast because there wasn't yellow flag in GT5 and 6, I also like how it wasn't just a straight line like Special route X and in replay it had some breathtaking angles...
I can't believe they removed 90% of the GT6/5 tracks and almost every cool original tracks (El Capitan, Seattle, Automn Ring Mini, Citta Di Arria...)
Bring them all back please... Long live the GT7....
loved seattle. Might be a tad unrealistic with the jumps, but fun, and elevation changes always add some spice
Videos like these kinda make me sad, I have so many memories going back basically my entire life playing this series. Each game and track I can associate with different places I lived, summers spent, countless hours driven, it’s been my favorite since the original, and I’m in my mid 30s playing GT7 now
Loved the City Tracks! Hope they bring them back at some point!
Awesome my friend! I will always support your work! Have a great weekend! Big like #99😃🔥💯✌
Interesting video, so many great tracks that could be doing adding to GT7!
And still no new city tracks 😂
imagine how stunning these city circuits would look in gt7 engine. idk why they gave up on them
Paris is one of my favorites. Would love that and maybe Seattle in GT7.
me being a Forza player I can confirm SSR11 (original layout) was insane
pvp'ing in that track was a real challenge, specially if you picked the Stingray Corvette 😂
15:42 Well, damn, that bites. This one and SSR5 are both sorely missed...
If we get Blue Coast back, it should be named Monaco. Oh, wait, never mind me; that's only for the GP.
Special Stage Rome at Night from GT2 is worth mentioning.
Back in the day driving the Alfa Touring Car or the Lotus GT1 LM Car at this stage was unique and fun
Yep, I also mentioned Rome Night myself. It's a shame that it didn't get used for any races in Gran Turismo mode. Only for one of the license tests.
Beautiful video, how many memories and hours of playing on these circuits. But two are missing. Amalfi and the City of Air. Which were in GT4.
Those are more like rally tracks. I don't think they are fitting in this video. Here I am showing tracks in big cities. I might show them in a different video in the future though.
I wish a few of these were in the PSP version of GT especially Hong Kong that was a favorite of mine actually
They should bring all of them back. Great video
BRING BACK SEATTLE DAMN IT!
I think GT6 is still the best game, I think taking these tracks and all the fictional tracks out has ripped the soul from GT
I wanted a new city circuit when GT6 was upcoming but it never happened. I guess after seeing GTS and GT7, city circuits are not coming back for now. Like the old photo travel mode, PD have expressed their interest in simplifying their modelling efforts to more efficient methods and they've been cracking down on laborious developments, which city circuit modelling closely shares with photo travel. Tokyo Expressway was revealed to be a procedural generation project by PD. I can only imagine that it'll come back once modelling technology and techniques have improved.
In every Sony console, there were always 2 Gran Turismo games. PS4 now is complete with both GT Sport and GT7. PS5, of course, GT7, but there is a potential for Gran Turismo 8. I just hope they will ditch away those online-only stuff. It's hurting the franchise at slow pace.
Yeah it's a massive bummer that online is the prime focus of GT7 these days
GT7 was never originally intended for PS4, it was only the PS5s poor availability that forced a PS4 release for business reasons. Of course all that's done is shown how little effort they put into the PS5 version since the only difference between the two is resolution, loading times and very subtle (barely noticeable) lighting improvements. Almost all the tracks have just been ported across from GT Sport with minimal changes which makes me wonder wtf the dev team has been doing in the last few years to bring out a far less impressive game than GT4 or 6 were in their day. I expected to see far more tracks and variety- they surely have the budget to outsource some of those older tracks, particularly the newer ones that could be brought up to spec in a few weeks with a modest sized art team. The older PS2 tracks would be a complete rebuild so perhaps more understandable they're missing but even then it's not like Polyphony didn't have the budget to get them done!
@@staggabobthey did choose to build all-new original tracks instead of rebuilding any of the old ones. i’m not sure why.
The New York one is awesome!
GT4 was the peak for racing games. Nothing will ever top that
Real cool
As someone who 'jumped' from GT 1 & 2 to Sport, I really missed SS5, SS11, Seattle & Rome... but WOW, all of the tracks are beautiful. Those guys at Polyphony are geniuses!
I'm playing GT7 in VR and I'd dearly love some of these city tracks added.
the seattle track will be awesome to play the gt2 version showed the kingdom and the gt3 version showed safeco field both had the alaskan way viaducks which arent around any more they took them down
I would kill to have Seattle back, first ever track I ever raced in a video game, and I did it splitscreen with my dad, such good times back then.
It's time to do a video this time on the rally circuits.
Gran Turismo 4 had the best tracks. Such lovely city trails are sorely missed! The rally tracks were also very diverse in GT4! Gran Turismo has been one of my favorite games since Ps1. Unfortunately, Gran Turismo 7, no more than GT Sport 2.0 Very sad!
I think the reason they're not doing city circuits anymore is that PD would want to do very high-detail buildings etc, and is probably way more resource-intensive than circuit tracks
That is when a franchise dies, when saving money and resources comes before ambition and delivering on what people love.
Its about being cheap and screwing the players for money with less and less content for higher consumer cost.
Its a cynical approach that plagues most of gaming today.
I miss the city tracks if I had the option to choose only one to GT 7 would be a Seattle .
Route 5, Rome and Tokyo are absolutely great tracks and should be present in all future GT games, NY, while not as good, is decent enough for me to wish it is too, Route 11, if they remove the double chicane part in the tunnel, will be a good track.
But you missed a great track, Rome Night from GT2, absolutely underused, and it felt great driving on it.
I didn't miss Rome Night. I am actually talking about it myself in the description. :) Definitely a very interesting track and really weird that they didn't use it for any race events and only for that one license test.
Seatle 💚
Tahiti maze gt4 would be a great drift track
Would like to see all these tracks come back
The only track I want is Cote d'Azur, although Seattle and Tokyo R246 would be nice.
First Track will alway be my favorite in GT2
Tokyo would be such a great track for GR.1 endurance races.
GT4 has the best tracks selection of the videogames history
seattle cicruit was my favorite and still is and especially even more the reverse wtit the jumps !!!! and the ssr11 i fix it on gt6 with the app!!!
I'd kill to drive these race tracks
Miss that GT2 Seattle track
For the love of all things holy pls bring Rome to GT7 that would look spectacular on ps5
Does anyone know why the Monaco circuit was not included in gt7?
Some one clearly lost their mind at PD with this game.
Gran Turismo is a console defining franchise and they fcked it up by being cynical and greedy.
I Hope that Rome will come Back per Update in GT7
A remastered SSR11 from GT1 would be awesome.
Need my SS Route 5 back
I also want this track to come back, it's us
Who else remembers grand valley?
Città di aria and costa d'Amalfi too
Bro just imagine having a gt pro race at new York with the redbulls
I think Special Stage Route tracks are actually Tokyo Expressway so Polyphony Digital should turn, Special Stage Route into Tokyo Expressway themed track instead.
i love them all but seattle and ssr11 was my favorite i don;t know why but i was my favorite !!!
am i the only one who thinks that the Las Vegas gp looks like Tokyo R246?
You forgot: Costa di Amalfi and Cità di Aria in GT4 as Ópera Paris Night (GT4) and Rome Night in GT2
I didn't forget them. I am actually talking about Rome Night myself in the description. The others are Special Conditions tracks. Not the type of track that I intend to cover in this video. Maybe I will show them together with the rally tracks or in some other video though. :)
@Paragleiber Do you know, some of the tracks of GT4 are also featured in GTPSP.
Yep. I think most of the GT4 tracks are also on PSP.
PD was once more productive! Today he lives on stupid deals with the FIA, IOC, Dior, Brembo and other nonsense.
Where are those italy tracks from GT4? I loved those and would love to have them on gt7
Tokyo r246 looks like the new las Vegas f1 track
What I don’t like about gran turismo 7 is that we get loads of vision cars & gt cars. I like the old games that had a butt ton of cars
i hope they add monaco soon
City courses 🏙 🤙🏽
Fucking Kaz, that many tracks that he could add withoutxpaying for licenses,yet he won't give us none.
Monaco would be awesome!
But we need more cars also! That saleen for exemple… the tommy kairas skylines… lotus also
How can you have a racing game without lotus ffs
شكرا لك وما هي افضل جزء بانسبة لك
Well, I miss Tokyo and Special Stage Route so much!!! Its nostalgia. I hope they will bring back some to GT7.
Very good: Seattle Circuit, Special Stage Route 11, Cote d'Azur
Good: Special Stage Route 5
Average: Rome Circuit, Tokyo R246
Meh: Rest
Ah yes the Rome circuit the track that has a GT40 in it
GT6 was a good game, but the PS3 just couldn't handle what PD was trying to achieve with it graphically speaking, hence the screen tearing and frame-rate dips. It also came out after the PS4 launched so the timing definitely hurt its sales.
The tracks, I miss a lot of them.
But what about returning Cars, including Polphony's own vehicles.
I made a video about some of the Le Mans cars from previous games. czcams.com/video/hK5yBzhw_Pc/video.html
Honda HSV010 🤤🤤
I hope someday add some SS circuits
During the time I'm shocked 5hat both Forza motorsport and Gran Turismo have new York as track options
