GT3 is not relevant. It was very innovative at its day but the innovation started to ware down in the next release and as you can see, GT4 could not replicate the penetration of GT3 on the much larger installed base.
GT5 does not have the innovative factor (I am sure it is going to be a great racer - but how much can you innovate in V5?) and does not have the installed base. Many other excellent racers are out there (PGR, Forza) so it is not the only game in town anymore.
It will be lucky to have the success of GT4, but with the much smaller base it will translate to only 3M-4M LTD.
Prediction made on 11/1/2008:
Q4 2008: 27M xbox LTD, 20M PS3 LTD . 2009 sales: 11M xbox, 9M PS3
