While there’s hundreds of cars to collect in Gran Turismo 7, starting your collection is sure to be fraught with indecision. Which car is going to be the best? Am I just going to have a car gifted to me after I’ve just bought it? Should I splash out on a Gr. 3 grand touring car, or save my cash for other purchases? Thankfully you can rely on Gran Turismo 7 gift car handouts though the single player.
One thing that will help you plan is knowing that GT7 is happy to hand out cars to you. Working your way through the Menu Book missions found in the Café, you’ll regularly be tasked with acquiring a trio of iconic cars. These can be bought, and you might have already happened upon some of them, but you’re far better off heading to the World Circuits and taking on the highlighted race events. Finished in 3rd place or better at these events and you’ll get a gift car for the Menu Book, and in general you will have a car that will qualify and can be upgraded through the Tuning Shop to be competitive for a podium.
You also earn gift cars for getting all bronze and all gold medals through each category of License Tests and Mission Challenges.
You could buy cars from the Used Car Dealership, but there’s a better way to get them…
Those are all pre-determined, but there’s even more gift cars available for completing championships (tied to Menu Books), and from reward tickets from Luca at the Café and for completing the Daily Sprint.
So, with all these Gran Turismo 7 gift cars coming at you, which ones should you try to avoid buying? We’ve collated all of the defined gift cars that we’ve encountered through the game so far. This is obviously massive spoiler territory, but if you’re OK with that, then read on!
