The GT3 move for DTM caused the series to collapse, so those ideas are all literal fantasy.

All very negative views. At least those categories do provide a global market for selling racing cars to standard regulations. TCR and GT3 mass-production keeps the lights on at JAS Motorsport for example, as much as some may view the classes as "not great" and "ripe for collapse". Competitive homologations made out of as-yet-unhomologated vehicles could potentially be good sellers.
So where was "Supercars" in arranging a common set of affordable, sensible regulations with DTM organisers? With both series racing high-performance coupes, a common set of regulations would have been ideal!
