GT 64 received generally unfavorable reviews from critics,[5] who criticized the game's limited number of tracks.[13][4] N64 Magazine noted that, while the game had been touted as having 12 tracks, it actually only has three, without considering the mirror variants and the fact that each track offers both a short and a long route. The magazine concluded that GT 64 is inferior to Gran Turismo or GTI Club, but still more enjoyable than Automobili Lamborghini.[13] Nintendo Power highlighted the game's energetic music and sound effects.[4] Next Generation gave the game negative review, calling it as neither arcade nor simulation game.[14] In Japan, Famitsu gave it a score of 23 out of 40.[8]
