Read wikipedia and learn something about cars. And stay away from imports, we don't need more idiots like you making the hoon reputation worse.

The delay is most likely a marketing ploy (by Sony not Polyphony digital) or something like the damage modeling is taking longer than expected. Whatever it is, we'll probably see a simultaneous worldwide release now. Overall though, I don't see what all the fuss is about over it taking sooooooo long. Think about it. They only have 110 staff. It takes, on average, 4.5 months to completely model a car, inside and out. By my calculations it would take almost 4 years to model the 1000 cars alone, and that's not including time taken for track/scenery modeling, interface development, online capability, damage programming, and the physics engine. Besides, they'll even be announcing a new manufacturer at TAS.... This from GTPlanet....

To say that the effective displacement to be used for classing a 13B for racing should be 3.9 litres is ridiculous. Have a think about it. How much does a 2.6 litre 4 stroke displace in one turn of it's output shaft? 1.3 litres. How much does a 1.3 litre 2 stroke displace in one turn of it's output shaft? 1.3 litres. How much does a 13B displace in one turn of it's output shaft? 1.3 litres. That's why all 3 engines would be classed in a similar way.

Would have to agree with that one. Hopefully they do fix it. For now, we get to drool over this latest release. Finally... the official box art.

Only confirmed date is for Japan, March 31 2010. For North America (and possibly everyone else) they have said a summer release. Whether that's North American summer who knows, but it's suggested therefore that it may be June/July for us.

Night racing and weather effects confirmed for GT5. http://www.gtplanet.net/night-racing-weath...+%28GTPlanet%29 Also possibly Indy cars (although no pics yet), and hints that Spa-Francorchamps circuit will be included. http://www.gtplanet.net/gran-turismo-at-be...show-jan-14-24/ Awesome!

It's got 5 seats too. So you could even take the family or pick the kids up from school.

Mode: Normal Controller Type: Steering Wheel View: In car Transmission: MT (gated shifter) Traction Control: 7 Driving Line: Off Time: 1:52.757 Haven't tried the tuned car yet, wanted to give it a good go in the normal first.

Yes I do, exactly the same under the skin. Both made in Thailand for the Australian market actually

That's the old one dude, been out for many months And it doesn't feature the Rome and Madrid circuits

I've just recently got a Ford Ranger turbo diesel. While i wouldn't say it's top of the range, it is a great value for money ute. The ride isn't as refined as perhaps a hilux (I wouldn't know for sure cos I haven't driven one) but that may also be because I opted for the hi rider model as I wanted the ground clearance. As for reliability you cant beat Toyota build quality, particularly the Hilux. Diesels too are very longlasting hardwearing engines because of their more robust design. The advantage in drivability in a turbo diesel is huge, pulls easily from 1500 rpm with plenty of torque, not so much power for landspeed records, but the ability to move easily no matter what you're carrying.

Latest trailer featuring Rome and Madrid

So far, on lap 174 and a minute in the lead. Now to catch a few zzz's.....

Talk about taking up too much time. I've just done my first stint in the Le Mans 24hr enduro on GT4. I'll be doing 1 1/2hrs driving and 3 hrs break while B-spec Bob drives. One of my stints I've scheduled for 3am - 4:30am. No pausing and no fast forwarding so the race will actually go for 24hrs.

+1 for he sounds gay. Tell him the lancer is a girls car, looks like crap and that he should go and buy one. He doesn't deserve to be in a cool car if he doesn't know anything about them.

downloading it as I type.

GT5 demo available to download Dec 17! http://www.gtplanet.net/gran-turismo-5-dem...ts-december-17/

How about a 323 SP20? http://www.carpoint.com.au/all-cars/result..._Model_String|0 Got to be better than a lancer

And because they're over 1000kg and that's getting away from the whole idea of a lightweight Lotus/Radical/Caterham.

Ummmm, that's an RX-4 dude. The yellow one in pic 9 is an RX-3. Nice pics tho, thanks.

This has just gotten ridiculous. *walks out door*
