After the opening cinematic, you’ll be greeted by Sarah. She will be your guide and explain to you the basics of the game and its map. Eventually, she’ll lead you to a used car dealer, Andi. Here, you’ll be given the option to choose from three different cars.

Every player will start with 20,000 Credits that they can use to purchase their first car in Gran Turismo 7. The options are:

  • HONDA Fit Hybrid ’14 (13,000 Credits)
  • TOYOTA Aqua S ’11 (14,300 Credits)
  • MAZDA Demio XD Touring ’15 (12,500 Credits)

Honda has 331.00 PP (Performance points), Toyota has 350.99 PP, and Mazda has 320.22 PP. After taking a close look at the stats and price of the cars, we can conclude that the Toyota Aqua S ’11 is the fastest out of the three. So that should be the obvious choice, right? Well, not really.

As we said earlier, it depends on your preference since the starting races are going to be played out the same way regardless of your selection. If you want to save some Credits, we suggest going for the Mazda Demio, otherwise, the Toyota Aqua will be better as it has more PP.

Since the overall cost of all the cars is relatively similar, it doesn’t matter if you choose the most expensive one as you’ll cover that cost in no time.


That’s everything you need to know about what is the best starting car in Gran Turismo 7. Regardless of which car you choose, you should aim to buy a better one as soon as you have enough credits. We would love to know which car you picked and why. Let us know in the comments below!
