While Gran Turismo is fairly simple to pick up and play, the series is notorious for the Nintendo Hard events that come up every now and then in pretty much every single title. There are achievements that can be too frustrating to obtain.

Series-wide/multiple games
- All games proceeding with 5 has an trophy that requires you to get gold in every license or any time trial target related events like Circuit Experience. Getting golds in a single license and derivatives is truly hard especially when it comes to incredibly difficult license tests like S-5 in 6, IA-10 and S-10 in 7.
Gran Turismo 5
- "GT-R Official Record" is very difficult as it requires you to achieve a lap time of 7:29:03 in Nürburgring Nordschleife in a Nissan GT-R '07 with Sports Hard tyres or less. It must be the car from Arcade Mode car list only and you cannot do so with your own modified GT-R '07. The car is heavy and handles like a fish out of water meaning that you must drive perfectly in order to achieve that lap.
- "Sebastian Vettel X Challenge" requires you to do the eponymous event which you're driving the Red Bull X2010 which has a incredibly high acceleration, speed and handling. The handling itself is too sensitive meaning that is easy to go off track and fail the license. You must also do perfectly and not slow down too much as chances to get even bronze trophy are incredibly difficult let alone gold.
- "Gold Standard" is the most notorious trophy of all time. You must get gold in everything. Here's the tasks.
- Winning the races in either A-Spec or B-Spec. This does not sound bad but some of them are incredibly difficult such as the fifth race of NASCAR in Daytona, the Sports Truck Race and La Festa Cavallino in B-Spec mode and of course, the endurance races especially 24h Le Mans and Nürburgring.
- Getting gold in License tests.
- Completing every special event including the infamously hard Sebastian Vettel X Challenge.
- "Car Collector" requires you to get 1,000 cars. With the economy of the game that the easiest way of get money is around 1.5M in a hour this makes the trophy too much tedious.
- "Expert Manager" it requires you to reach B-Spec level 40. B-Spec races gives you less XP compared to A-Spec even in 24h races making a huge tedious grind.
Gran Turismo 6
- One of the trophies required to obtain is to win the race in the first place with only fraction of fuel remaining. Due to its nature, you must conserve your low fuel for the final lap, however the chances are you likely either won with empty fuel, won with your fuel just above unspecific amount of fuel to achieved, or your opponents catches you before crossing the finish line.
Gran Turismo Sport
- "Record Number of Wins" requires you to win 91 online ranked races in Sport Mode. Winning any single online race is a matter of luck. In most occasions you will find god-flawless-like people that never seems to crash and take the corners perfectly negating the chances of claiming a victory. And you must do '91 times Have fun!.
Gran Turismo 7
- "Three Legendary Cars" requires you to purchase the Ford Mark IV Race Car '67, the Jaguar XJ13 '66 and the Ferrari 330 P4 Race Car '67 in Legends dealership. The problem is that those cars are too expensive and requires 28,250,000 to buy them all and it requires extensive grinding in high-paying races like the World Touring Car 600 in Tokyo Expressway, the World Touring Car 700 in Le Mans and World Touring Car 800 in Sardegna (or pay to win to reach the total amount for at least 28,250,000 Cr. or $150note in total).
