Hmm in my pre-order it says 'with play.com exclusive pre-order stealth model car pack'. Wonder what that is?

Full car list (apparently):

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2010- ... -1031-cars

Millions of Hondas I note. DC5 touring car. :+:
Seems to be a lot of American rubbish, but guess that's the way with things thesedays.
No Panda 100hp though, a 1.2 8v 500. What's the point in that?
Hmm, no Clio 200 Cup.
Obviously the effervescent AE86 is there (Shigeno edition), then there continues to be all flavours of MR2s. Which is good.
Overall good to see a mix of touring cars.
Very dissapointed at the lack of Porsche's though, just the usual Ruf offerings.

Still you can't have it all I suppose. I do wonder if there will be downloadable cars in the future, though 1031 cars is enough to be going on with.

Official list here:
http://www.gran-turismo.com/local/jp/da ... st_en.html

Over 1,000 cars.
But face it, there's LOTS of duplicates :roll:
A quick count reveals 29 Mazda MX-5's, 18 Mazda RX-7's, 20 Mitsubishi GTO's.

There's still a couple of hundred different car models in there, which is impressive. But I wish they'd cut the carp about having over 1,000 in there ](*,)

Meh, there's a MK1 NA and SC plus the Shigeno AE86 which is the best of the lot really. Have never owned a MK2 in any of the previous GT's anyway. :tongue:

Looks like a black Merc & GTR race spec car according to the Play website.

Wasn't that a load extra though? I pre-ordered last January and certainly didn't tick any boxes for a special edition version. Well I will just have to wait and see what comes through the post.

Edit just checked, don't think I paid any extra, basically I get an email and it allows me to unlock two 'stealth' cars.

They're a constant source of disappointment :twisted:

Well I suppose there will be endless competions to go faster than the 'stig' round the test track in given cars TG have previously tested that happen to be in the game.

Yes, it's good to see the MK1s included as well as the AE86's in various versions including the Shigeno version. I think basically all the previous cars have been included with a number of new additions.

Saw in a screen shot what must be an FD2 (car I might get in a bit over a year), so I'm looking forward to having a go with that.

I can't wait now. I have a friend of mine making a frame to mount my steering wheel and pedals (have an old 'GT4' logitech pro) so I can use it on the sofa. No more ironing boards shenanigans!

Ooh sounds good. :+:

Reckon there might be the possibility of an IMOC play online (providing Mark doesn't moan at me too much) when it comes out. :+:
