Gran Turismo 5

[stiggie]

How about Saab?

[killpanda]

I think Spyker was in GT4, so there maybe a chance we get them as well in GT5 no?

As for Ariel, I 100% agree with you, we need some V8 Atom goodness in this game ^^

In the game, will it require $3000 of maintenance every six months and understeer straight off the track unless you spend yet more to modify it?











(Sorry, but as a former Saab owner, I couldn't help myself.)

And they will be slower than a TurboDiesel Fiesta around the Nürburgring?
(Sorry private joke from an earlier ringmeet )

[Night_Hawk]

I hope group B rally cars will come back, and I hope you can still raise the power and run them on super soft tires.

I actually would say the F1 car was probably the 3rd or 4th fastest thing in GT4.

[Redliner]

I just bought the Ferrari F2007...and it´s kind of meh. It is too good, I found no fun in driving it. Am I broken?

[Topgearfanatic]

Where are you driving it?

[CrazyRussian540]

Well, the game is on Amazon for pre-order. According to Amazon, the release date is Dec 29.

Anyone pre-order it yet?

I drove it at the High-speed Ring and that mountain course that has a name I can´t pronounce.

[Der Stig]

I wouldn't mind a 355 GTS in there or a 250 GTO. Meh.

It's good fun at eiger when you are going balls to the walls.

How is it that you aren't finding it fun?

I think I know. The damn thing has too much grip, and the handling is too good! I miss the challenge of putting the damn thing through the bends.


And yes, A 250GTO or a F355 would be nice...

What I do is do a couple of blasts around Daytona and experience the extreme buffeting at 212 MPH and then take it around Suzuka and challenge myself with braking and turn ins.
Do you have the traction control on? If you do, turn it off. Also turn ASM off and put force feedback to 10.

Daytona was where I found it most dull. Full throttle, full time...slight turn to left. Rinse and repeat.
I always play with everything turned off, and unfortunately I can´t put force feedback in 10, because I haven´t got a wheel yet.

It's a good car and everything, but is this REALLY necessary.

I think you could cut the list in half and some people might think it's still excessive.

[killpanda]

But what if someone wants a really specific version of the GT-R that he prefer and there is only the other kind of GT-R that he really hates?

[AarheadC]

I think it has to do, in part, with the fact that all those different GT-Rs are basically the same same thing other than a few minor details and color, so it's really easy for PD to just add 20 extra models with minimal effort.

Personally, one would have would have met all my needs.

Yes, it is totally and completely necessary, just like Porsche Carrera 2, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, BMW 116, 118, 120, 123d, 125, 128, 130, 135i.. etc etc.. get the point?
