>like GT3 and GT4 lack
GT3 has plenty of color and contrast, especially since it's got the sunrise/sunset tracks and different lighting in forward/reverse. GT4 is the one that washed everything out into flat daytime blue and even tweaking the ingame color doesn't return the look 3 had, plus 3 had SOUL in other areas like the tach-and-trip-meter HUD.
>cars designs are lacking - like when different car manufacturers reuse the same Porsche 911 rear lights bar on different cars.
Eh, I can deal with that since IRL designs tend to converge to a common point in a given decade anyway, be it 'brick,' 'bar of soap,' or 'crossover slop.' I like pretty much the whole roster since it all feels so 90s, like all the coupes and sedans that disappeared after cash for clunkers and now only exist as background cars in photos of Wal-Marts, or otherwise only existed as tiny-volume manufacturers (think Venturi, Spyker, that sort of thing). Even the final tier cars are multiple types of LMP prototypes, Group C cars, and a Batmobile thrown in for good measure, with the final cars being 13th Racing but Nuclear and a missile on wheels.

I half-agree, some of the upgraded versions are pretty lame compared to Rage's race-bred additions with wings, ground effects, superchargers, etc., but the cars themselves are boner inducing enough to make up for it like Lizard's Detector line. Plus sometimes it goes the other direction and the upgraded car does something like the Tamer there where Lizard went "yeah let's just cut the front off a Detector and attach it to a Chaparral 2J. God bless Lizard, taken too soon.

>R4 cheats and counts upgraded cars as separate cars
Not really.
