20 of the best Gran Turismo Easter Eggs ft. Oddheader

Out of all the video games out there, Gran Turismo isn't really associated with easter eggs. They're more synonymous with series like Grand Theft Auto. However, over the years, GT's creators have given us a few little easter eggs which haven't really had the coverage online that they probably warrant.
Oddheader and I have teamed up to bring you 20 of the best easter eggs and secrets that the Gran Turismo series has given us over the years!

Additions / Clarifications: Hi all. Thank you for the amazing response to this video, and thanks to everyone who submitted new easter eggs for me to check out. Part 2 is already in the works. Firstly, just to clarify that the narrator of the video is Oddheader. He's a great guy, awesome to work with, and is very knowledgeable about video games and easter eggs. However, he's not a big fan of racing in real life, so he didn't know how to pronounce all the names, e.g. Benetton. Also, some words are said in his regional dialect and accent, so might sound a bit different to how you say the same words. Also, I think we'd all struggle to pronounce some of the Japanese names in this video. Cut him some slack. :) 1. It has been suggested that Nodoka Kinsho may in fact be a woman, not a man. However, I can't find any photos of him/her, so it's hard to say for definite. I did find this Twitter account, which is run by a man, who's an artist, but may not be the one who worked on Gran Turismo: twitter.com/qn_kp 3. To clarify, Kaz's Lancer is an Evo 5, while Tommi Makkinen's real-life Winfield Lancer is an Evo 6. 13. AutoArt actually originates from Germany, rather than Japan. 14. It has been suggested that the faces on Trial Mountain are a result of mirrored textures or Pareidolia (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareidolia). I still think it looks rather intentional to me. 19. This man's true identity is still up for debate in the GT community, it seems. Some say that it is Hideo Kojima, while others say it's more likely to be Daiki Kasho, while other names have been suggested too. It's likely we'll never know for sure unless the developer / designer who put this man in the game ever reveals who their real-life inspiration was.

dude the black versions of the 5 race cars also had a smaller horsepower output maxed out than the standart versions

[@MattJ155]

@@petrospago3515 Yeah, it's likely because they have high milage due to them being used cars. You can give them an oil change to get some of those horses back though.

(pasted from below) 8:08 the F688/s could be a representation of the Tyrrell 022 from 1994 - the livery is quite similar, including the green BP logo on the nose and the number 5, which was the car piloted by Ukyo Katayama-maybe the Japanese developers had fond memories of cheering him on and decided to put it in the game?

[@Mace2.0]

The "face" at #14 isn't really much of an easter egg. This would happen unintentionally, but there's a simple explanation: A cheap way to map textures to look seamless is to flip one side over, and repeat continuously. In other words: You just found a seam of mirrored textures.

[@tedt7991]

I still remeber discovering it since week 1 of GT5 release and posting all the pics on Gtplanet, most probably mirrored textures but still they seem oodly specific

[@RandomCarGuy17]

Ah yes, I still remember when I found out about those stealth cars for the first time in GT4. When I was a kid, I on one playthrough decided to just keep grinding in the Capri rally race only to spend the money I made constantly buying cars in the Used Car dealership. I got carried away and lost track of the in-game days passing by, which lead to me finding out about these cars on accident. Only to realize I didn't have enough money to buy them annoyingly. I of course learned my lesson and finally got all 4 many years later by grinding in the DTM championship. That was satisfying finally having all 4 in my garage. To note: You can also drive those stealth cars in arcade mode with a glitch involving the favorite cars option. I also remember getting those Formula GT cars with gameshark codes during my childhood, but I never really touched them due to my lack of interest in F1. Now though, I have more of an appreciation of them after spending time learning about F1. Anyway, I was happy to see that there were still a few easter eggs I never noticed such as Hideo Kojima in GT Sport and the wierd faces on Trial Mountain. It's a great overall list Matt, I really enjoyed it! :)

[@paxhumana2015]

The actual Japanese term is ショシンシャ (Shoshinsha), or, in its full name, ショシンシャうんてんしゃヒョシキ (Shoshin Untensha Hyōshiki, a.k.a., Beginner Driver's Mark in a literal Japanese to English translation). Strangely enough, there does not seem to be an in-game analogue to the これいしゃ (Kōreisha) mark, which denotes elderly drivers. However, making things more confusing, the original Elderly Driver's Mark from 1997 to 2011, anyway, looks like a red and yellow-orange teardrop with a white line in the middle, a white teardrop, and a black tear drop outline, but, beginning in 2011, the symbol turned into a thick vertical infinity/8 symbol that is over a thin horizontal infinity/8 symbol that has four arced black likes, and, from clockwise, four blobs that are yellow green, green, yellow-orange, and red in form, thus forming a rough cloverleaf-like shape. However, there are two separate handicapped stickers for Japanese drivers. The first handicapped/disabled driving symbol is a thin light gray circular line, a little thicker white circular line, a green circle, and a yellow stylized butterfly. This symbol is called a ﾁｮｳｺｸ ｼｮｳｶﾞｲ (Choukoku Shougai, or literally Hearing Impaired Driver's Mark). The second one is a thin yellow-orange line, a little thicker white line, a blue circle, and four white hearts that make a cloverleaf-like shape, but is more akin to an actual cloverleaf shape, and the bottom leaf also has a white stem that trails from it in a J shape. This symbol is called a しんたいしょうがい (Shintai Shougai, or Physically Handicapped Driver's Mark), which is reserved for physically disabled drivers. However, it is also not impossible for a driver in Japan to have both the Hearing Impaired Driver's Mark and the Physically Handicapped Driver's Mark simultaneously. Curiously enough, there is no mark for mentally disabled drivers, so I am guessing that they belong to the second mark, or that Japan does not allow mentally handicapped people to drive vehicles. Finally, in addition to the Beginner Driver's Mark, there is also another mark for people that are in driver's education vehicles and it is simply referred to as the Driver's Training Mark. This mark says, ”級ブレっきちゅうい" (literally, "Beware of Sudden Stops"), "かんめんきょう (literally, "Temporary Driver"), and "れんしゅうちゅう (literally, "Practicing"). There are also different marks that denote businesses, as well as possibly different vehicles as well. You can find out more about them on Google.

I heard “Gran Tureesmo” about 100 times in this video

13:40 A CR-Z. I have one of those in real life! 18:14 Another one! I guess I picked a pretty cool car.

[@fanofnathandrake]

Some of those words were absolutely butchered but great video as always!

[@Blaze1990sp]

I'll never forget the first time I fired up Gran Turismo 5 on Christmas I was so pulled back I was astounded that they went that far out of their way as well as some of the scenery being all Christmassy. I thought that was a nice little addition

[@nickjennis1508]

17:47 if you blow up any car in the cod mw3 the same type of faces can be seen pretty vividly although its probably just from mirroring a texture or something

[@stiang872]

Gran Turismo 6 made me fall in love with the Mazda MX-5/Miata NA. I was 10 then, I am now 16 and the MX-5/Miata is still my favorite car.

[@LaYamiUwU]

It's a beautiful car, but if you're 6' or taller you might have trouble entering one

[@richardshea5055]

The Kixx RB26 Hope you get one someday, I’ve had 3 and they’re the best little cars!

From your original comment, only two are correct, and they're the two in the video thumbnail lol.

@@MattJ155 cmon maaan xD Okay,will wait for your profesional opinion ;)

[@apexgt4]

Or the fire at apricot hill, the Morse code on the Nike 2022, the undersides of some cars have secrets ( I think a skyline has a texture of the model car they used to model it, some of the developers in the crowds, or the gt logo in ssr5, the ps3 in the back of a skyline, the ps logos in the Mercedes vgt, and the I racing and sonic the hedgehog banners on Fuji and Tsukuba in gt sport and GT6. That’s all the things I could think of on the top of my head though

[@nitrogamesGT]

Actually, I don't know why nobody noticed this on GTP forums, but the nessie easter egg on trial mountain is present since Gran Turismo 3, it's just harder to notice. Also, there is a honda nsx from gt1 hidden on the tokyo route 246 on the parking lot right behind the exit from the pits

[@nitrogamesGT]

As well as a KENT cigarretes ad board in the background :)

[@derosiflo6524]

Nessie is in Trial Mountain Raceway because it's supposed to be a racetrack in Scotland.

[@paxhumana2015]

My cat literally jumped into my lap when this video was talking about the ninth and tenth Gran Turismo Series Easter Eggs.

[@Clarkane]

i remember that gran turismo 6 has a ps3 (a fat model) on the rear seat of the infiniti G37 (the car from license tests IA with Gold) you can see that by changing to cockpit view and look at back

[@elseagullo4979]

And it also has a sony tv above the console

[@joshplaysdrums2143]

Don't know if they count as easter eggs but I think it's cool how you can get the pace car in gt4. Also the big sign that says Hmmmmmmmmmm in Laguna Seca was always funny to me

18:09 why was I expecting burger king

[@bigmanjorge]

In London (GT5/GT6) you can see a Burger King!

[@FabianPortilla]

Awesome video! Another easter egg you could add. At Dragon Trail there’s some signs that says “Robberechts Bakery”. This belongs to the GT Explore group president. Tom Robberechts. He’s one of the responsables of putting together the World Tours. There’s more people from the staff in the crowd. I can’t remember their names

[@dono2926]

I don't even play Gran Turismo why am I watching this

[@altuck4x4]

I have been a lifelong fan of this game and just had this in my suggested videos, really enjoyed it thank you, well done!

[@MrDanMoss]

The Stig outfit can be found in GT5!

[@TheLoganr80]

I saw this video a long time ago but it suddenly popped into my feed again possibly because of my interest in gt7 vids at this time. I'd like to add another that most don't know about. In gt sport, if you turn right before the start finish straight instead of following the track to the left, you will find a parking area in front of the Australian national motor racing museum. The museum will be to the right as you enter the area and if you position your car to look up the driveway, you will see a Nissan bluebird raced by George Fury in the mid 1980s during the Australian touring car championship. This car was a predecessor to the all conquering skyline gtrs of the early 90s. The bluebird has never been featured in any gt game but there it is, perfectly rendered for display.

[@BeAGoodDoga]

I notice “Benetton” and “Polyphony” are mispronounced. But it don’t matter... Another great video.👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@MattJ155]

Thanks!

[@BeAGoodDoga]

A pleasure, Matt.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@kidShibuya]

And every single Japanese word lol.

[@FellianTheDragon]

Pretty sure he pronounced Polyphony correctly

[@BeAGoodDoga]

FellianTheDragon pronunciations vary from country to country... And tbh, it gets on my nerves.

[@fontheking5]

The Winfield Evo is an Evo 5 from 1998, the Evo 6 was not used in Wrc untill 1999, and featured only Marlboro colours, not Winfield. The Winfield Mitsubishi livery was only used in Australia, 1997 with the Evo 4 and 1998 with Evo 5, since in 1999, Mitsubishi got a deal with Marlboro. The rear wing is the easist way to tell an Evo 5 from an Evo 6, the Evo 5 has a flat bottomed wing, while the Evo 6 has a " bi-plane " rear wing with a smaller lower rear wing and a big taller wing 😀 A big Wrc fan here 😀

[@joshplaysdrums2143]

I remember getting GT5 for the holidays and being blown away by the Christmas music, such a nice touch!

[@Vincent__101]

Ooooooh yes this'll be a very cool video!

[@raceris7309]

Another interesting thing to notice is the localisation differences: GT3 European version for example uses British English instead of American English (words like "Tires", "License center" are replaced with "Tyres" and "License centre" respectively). However, these is one instance in the tune shop, where one of the parts contain American word instead of British. GT3 also doesn't feature any Opel cars on European version, only Vauxhall cars, but on American version, it's the opposite.

[@apexgt4]

5:34 I watched this video again because I missed a part earlier and I couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow when I heard this. Ben-At-Tin? Lol I know it’s just a pronunciation and all that but I thought it was funny. Going forward I think it’s Benetton (Ben-A-ton) Good video as always Matt.

[@MattJ155]

Yeah, I know. I think Oddheader just mispronounced it.

[@IceKoldKilla]

I remember as a kid loving GT2 at my friend's house then GT3 when I got a PS2. So many fond memories. I then got GT5 a day early. I got the Collector's Edition. Played it so much. I just find it relaxing to play but also helps me focus. I can hardly focus for long on anything. Always had this issue. But I do remember realizing quickly it would take too long to ever get every trophy, let alone 100% the game with all the variables to be able to get all cars too. But I'd love to see what it looks like. Maybe it's on KZbin or through hacks nowadays. I'm sure there were region specific cars or online only, special limited time events only, etc. Especially GT6. That game is GT5 on steroids. The most tracks and cars ever in a single game.

[@CharlesFlahertyB]

You mispronounced "Le Mans", "revelation" and "Spa Francorchamps" .

[@matthewjohntaylor69]

And Turismo and Benetton

[@CamaroAmx]

And Toyota.

[@EdselAmbience]

grand tourismo 2 is nostalgic af for me i used to play that like crazy on the ps1 and i have some fond memories playing split screen with my older brother in grand tourismo 2.

[@mondodimotori]

The last truck in GT2 Laguna Seca looks more like the one of benetton team... You can recognize the colors of the logo (upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/54/Benetton_Formula_logo.jpg )

[@woofyhound]

I recently purchased a copy of Gran Turismo 2 after beating Gran Turismo 1. If you load up your Gran Turismo 1 save game in Gran Turismo 2, it allows you to bypass the first two license tests by putting a kids prize in all of the B and A license tests. You still have to get all golds in the license tests to get the special prize cars tho. Just thought it would be interesting to note.

[@MattJ155]

Wow, really? I must try that!

[@benfennell6842]

5:35 The "benAHtun" team

[@SupaDorifuto]

I remember getting a kids prize some years ago and now i feel stupid

[@RegionalRadioShackManager]

Another is the Premium vs Standard cars in GT4 (all standard), GT5 and GT6. The Nissan RC390 roadgoing version has a somewhat detailed interior in all GT4-6. In photo mode you can make out red seats and some other parts!

[@x-volt8730]

Not sure if you can call this a Easter eggs but in New York (Forward) you can find McDonald's and TGI Fridays buildings after the first corner. Another Easter eggs is there's a Bandi Namco logo at (I think) Fuji Speedway at the start, only in GT4 and GT PSP. I think you can still find it in GT5 & 6 but I don't know. This can also be found on the Lexus BANDAI DIREZZA SC430 (SUPER GT) '06. Lastly there's a tall tree at Trial Mountain, after you exit the tunnel head for the hill and you will see a tall tree. Just had to point that out.

[@SonicBoone56]

You can find a Sonic The Hedgehog and Sega Sammy logo on Fuji in GT6.

[@gosharubyy]

11:02 694 days Lando Norris: You mean like forever?

[@peterdaviesracing]

1:08 - "he", "himself" *Nodoka* I am quite sure it's a she, Nodoka usually is a female Japanese name. 5:26 -"Possibly" Yes, if you don't notice the big, (mirrored?) S that represented the first initial of the team's name beside the RB logo, then not :p *grumbles slightly* 7:32 - Or the M191, which looked near identical the year prior in terms of livery. One big difference though is that Minardi had switched from Ferrari to Lamborghini engines. Didn't really work out for them. 10:03 - I think I bought all four at one stage, I am sure the save is still on my memory card :D
