Sure, here’s a rewritten version of the article:
Alright, so here’s the scoop. You have this ‘05 NISMO R34 GT-R Z-tune, and guess what? Nineteen of them exist. Just nineteen! I mean, that’s like one mystical car for every bazillion people or something. If you happen to own one, wow, you’re basically a unicorn. But hey, for all the regular folks like us, we can feel a tiny piece of this magic with free Update 1.61 from the Polyphony team. It’s got the Z-tune, along with the mesmerizing ’22 Honda N-ONE RS and the cool ’22 Nissan Qashqai Tekna 190 2wd e-Power.
Oh, and there’s more. We’re talking three spankin’ new events, adding some Lone Pine vibes to Scapes, and the ’17 Lexus RC F GT3 showing off in the Lexus Showroom. They’ve even thrown in this Sophy AI racing agent to give you a run for your money on the High-Speed Ring circuit. Seriously, it’s there to mess with you. Or maybe just have fun. Anyway — wait, what was I saying? Oh yeah, Update 1.61 for Gran Turismo 7 is live right now. Get on it!
NEW CARS
So, let’s chat about the ’22 Honda N-ONE RS for a sec. You can snag it at Brand Central or Used Cars, apparently. This ride is packing the first-ever turbo 6-speed manual transmission in a kei car. It’s like sipping espresso and suddenly feeling zapped with energy.
When it first came out in 2012, people went wild. Fast forward to 2020, they’re in the second gen now. They tweaked the body a bit but kept that cute, iconic look the fans dig. They even slipped in a killer 6-speed gearbox just to tease us gearheads. Black trim and all, it looks like it’s ready to throw down anytime, anywhere.
Moving on to the ’05 NISMO R34 GT-R Z-tune…
Imagine this: Nismo celebrated 20 years of doing their car-thing in 2004, and they decided, hey, let’s craft the ultimate ride. Bam! Out comes the Z-tune, each bit of it like the perfect jigsaw piece. They took 20 used cars and gave them a glow-up like you wouldn’t believe. Pistons, turbochargers from some Nürburgring race – the works. Talk about a glow-up! They even sprinkled some CFRP fairy dust to keep it lightweight yet rock solid.
Finally, the ’22 Nissan Qashqai Tekna 190 2wd e-Power. Hold on a sec…
Nissan’s compact SUV is, believe it or not, even more spectacular with this e-Power thing. It’s like upgrading your coffee to matcha or something. The style is all sharp lines and a V-Motion grille that screams ‘look at me!’ Underneath it all, it’s got this groovy hybrid system that uses the engine like a gym trainer for the electric motors. Reducing emissions and all that jazz, so you feel good while rolling smooth.
Oh, and yeah — they’re rolling out new stuff for World Circuits. Lightweight K-Cup at Nürburgring, Japanese FF Challenge 450 on Alsace, and some turbo sportscar shindig at Fuji. Plus, they’ve added ‘Lone Pine’ to Scapes and you can grab an ‘ANEST IWATA Racing 2025’ livery at the Lexus Showroom. Fancy, right?
Alright, that’s the rundown. Get your Gran Turismo on!
