yeah that's what i want. upgrade the premium cards to PS4 ultra cars and upgrade standard card to ps3 level cars. But no cardboard boxes! Well actuallt they should leave in 1 car from each of the old GT's even GT1. It would be a bit like being able to play as mgs1 8bit snake in the newer games :D

You might also want to consider the making the cars on the PS4 could be a lot easier and less time consuming than on the hard to develop for PS3.
In stead of taking 3 months 1 car might take 1 month now.

The premium PS3 models won't need upgrades. In the modern world, when you create the 3D models for a game you use millions of polygons. The you will downgrade it to a few dozen of hundred thousand polygons and put in the game. For PS4, you will just downgrade less the original models created during the modeling. A good example I saw some years ago was the models used for Drake on UC3 with millions of polygons for his face. The final mode used 30k polygons for the entire character.
The time to make a car is basically capturing the car appearance and modeling it on 3D, getting physics info, engine, etc. It's pure visual and statistical data. It won't be faster on PS4 because of the architecture. It will be faster because they won't need to model any car again and will just take the time to model new cars that weren't on GT6. So they have 600 cars ready, will model a dozen new ones and maybe upgrade some of the 600 standards.

Thanks very much for the informative reply. That makes sense.
Do you know how many cars were upgraded to premium from GT5 to GT6 if any?
Sony really should be looking to target a release date for next christmas. Either that or uncharted 4. Now that the PS4 is dominating unlike the ps3, series like uncharted will do even better than last gen.
