Amongst all this screaming at each other over the appearance ("Standard cars look like teh sux." "No, standard cars look better than every other racing game this generation."), interiors ("Standard cars need interiors in order to not look like teh sux." "No, interiors are for yellow bellies. Use Bumper Cam."), numbers ("4/5ths of these cars are undrivable because they are teh sux." "No, there are absolutely 1000 similar quality cars in this game.") and our own expectations ("PD lied to use because 800 of these cars are teh sux." "No, us actually expecting 1000 cars is entirely our fault."), we have forgotten that, like it or not, we are going to have "800" cars to mess around with from GT4/GT3 using the new GT5 physics engine. So, of those carryover cars, what ones do you look most forward to playing around with in GT5?
Personally, I'm looking quite forward to fiddling with the Dodge Ram 1500. I had quite a lot of fun with it in GT4, far more so than any other car in the game (in fact, possibly to the extent that it was one of only a handful of cars that I did enjoy driving); and I can't wait to try it with a physics engine that doesn't think that the proper reaction to every steering input is piles of understeer. I enjoyed driving it in GTPSP with the cut-down version of the GT5 physics that that game had, but I can't wait to try it on a system that I can perform proper steering and throttle with*, be it DS3 or a wheel.
*Ironic being because I'm just going to use D-Pad and face buttons when I'm not using a wheel.
Edit: By the way, people who actually ascribe to the obvious extremes poked fun at above, feel free to take it up with me in the proper thread(s). I don't care to actually debate those viewpoints in this thread, because if I did I wouldn't have made this thread. Thank you.
Edit 2 - Electric Boogaloo: Also keep in mind, said people from Edit 1, that I am not saying those complaints are wrong, so don't get that impression either. I actually happen to agree with one of them. But they are still the extremes of the various arguments, and the contrast alone provides the humour.
Edit 3: Not a wishlist thread aarrrgghhh.
Edit 4: I know we don't officially know what cars will and won't be Standard. But please, at least attempt to do some research about the cars we know are Premium.

That first paragraph is pathetic and unnecessarily OTT.
Of course, the biggest (well, sort of ) Evo in the game can't
