It's got to be the new WRX 5door. Has the right shape and you can clearly see the outline of the hood scope for the top mount intercooler.

when u pick ur car and u choose manual/auto etc the third menu has 2 do with simulation or arcade, i drove with the 2nd option and was easy i went 2 third before quitting and trying other cars etc if you stick witht he 1st one its alot harder so i imagine that is the new simulation mode.
btw RHD cars are harder to drive than LHD for me

the 135i isnt very fast in the game but it is fun to drive, the lancer is alright, the skyline is fun but i want incar view. the incar view is simply brilliant. words cannot express how amazing it really is. anyone else hear the roar of the Mustang GT as you pass it? i think they finally nailed the car sounds.

Can we PLEASE stop double posting? It's not acceptable anywhere else on GTPlanet, and it isn't acceptable here either. I've had to merge 8 posts in this thread in the last hour.

I'm having very much fun reading this thread and how people are trying to learn Japanese or get their TCS off etc. My demo is already downloaded but I have no hurry. Right now I'm playing poker online (losing money), sipping some beer and I have plenty of playing left with GT4. But it's great to see this kind of enthusiasm here.👍

OMFG...
1. The PS3 is so worth it and will be when GT5 comes.
2. OMFG, props guys! props! You did well from GTHD to this demo.
3. Must... Get... HDMI... cable... now.

Gooood demo so far. Physics have changed a little - still got to get used to them though. Because I'm used to using the triggers on the Xbox 360 I found it much easier changing the throttle/brake to the L2 and R2 buttons, then changing the gears to the Square and Circle buttons. If you're wondering how I done that, just memorise the Japanese symbols for each button and swap them over to the ones you want to use.
Great graphics too, but the mirrors, particularly the wing mirrors, look quite poor. Not sure how to unlock the rest of the cars though. I won a race and none of the others are unlocked? I guess I'm doing something wrong somewhere.

The advanced physics option is awesome! The cars can actually oversteer.
Sounds appear to be crap though, with the exception of the F430.

the sound is 10x better!
The mustang GT sounds mean! makes the gt4 mustang sound like a kitten! Buy a PS3 to hear and see this game!
I tested the AI, drove side by side through the esses with AI cleanly!
Incar view isperfect, at times i forgot i was driving incar, perfect visibility !
ai, sound, physics, graphics, all vastly improved

nothing but good things to say about demo.
press circle at main screen to check out daytona, fuji, and photo mode.
Nissan is the only car with no in-car view. BMW is the only left hand drive car.
Did anyone notice the words scrolling at the bottom when you press any buttons. One time it started with A1GP, then it was F3 another time and then I saw GT one time. Any guesses what it may say.
No 430 or mustang but you can drive beside them on track and see and hear them.
I noticed that either the ferrari or the gtr would always be in front of the computer train. Its funny, they got 16 cars now but you start 8th and just work your way up and you really never notice the other 8 cars unless you crash.

Well, my worse fears came true.
The demo looks amazing, it's VERY pretty to look at...
Makes me wish i had a 1080p set, even though one can only imagine just how good PD would've made it look at 720p. (PGR4 is an extremley good example of how a balanced graphics aproach can come up with stunning results, in some regards it looks better than GT5, worse of course in what PD concentrated on though.)
Anyway, the new "simulation" mode is completley underwhelming, this doesn't feel that much different from GT4.
I've disabled evry aid (i use DFP only.) and i'm using regular tires as oposed to the racing ones, while this gets the grip somewhat realistic, it still feels very loose as oposed to a real car or other sims out there. (you don't get feedback to tell just when you're about to lose grip... just like in GT4.)
In short, it's not even close to EPR physics, and this is very dissapointing to me. Specially when you consider the difference in hardware between the ps2 and ps3, good graphics are important, but the point of having new hardware is so you can change the gameplay where it was lacking. (online support will still keep me playing this though, the physics are decent enough that if they get the cars/tracks and online support right it will last a long time.)
So, at least as far as GT5 prologue goes, we can now confirm that the new physics engine is nothing more than a modified mode of the old physics engine, which of course is the problem to begin with.
PD needs a whole new physics engine to appeal to the people that are true sim fans, and just keep the arcade and new mode for intermediate and casual players.
The sounds are also a complete dissapointment, again, it's been 3 generations of hardware. on the PS1 i could understand the crappy sounds and physics, but there's no excuse, not anymore.
One can only hope this is changed by the time GT5 final is released.
So, those are my main complains, the Quality of the interface, graphics and attention to detail is what we've come to expect from PD.
So not much room to complain here, it looks amazing.
I just wish developers would realize that they have to evolve their games and not just add more eye candy to them.
Sure, the gameplay wasn't that bad to begin with. but new hardware allows for so much new stuff you can only wonder why that's not their main focus.
(Tekken 6 and other franchises that came out with the PS1 are very good examples of this.)
Man, PD would have an allmost flawless game if they just licenced the physics engine from the EPR guys.
Anyway, as far as the online options i hope they add a lot of stuff, such as racing against downloadable ghosts with cars with similar configurations of yours. (such as tyre selection, power weight ratio, etc.)
It's shaping up to look extremley good, but they need to eliminate aspects of the franchise that have no place in a PS3 simulator.

Tires sound good to me
The drifting is definitely better, the smoke still doesnt get thick white but has a noticeable trail as you skid.

horrible like gt4, but should be improved
cars that suppose tosound great do, like the ferrari and mustang gt
anyone who says the ai is not improved is out of their mind
the ai has moved out of my way numerous times now, even on straights, and they race side by cleanly now, no more running u off the road

You and i must be playing a completley different game!
I can see how you can be awed by the game to the point of omitting the issues it has since it looks so amazing and the interface is so clean.
But lets get real here.
The AI is horrible still, it IS somewhat different from the AI in GT4. but it's by no means good. (this is the issue i care less for though... just give me online career mode and forget about AI!.)
The sounds... they are horrible!
Go download the Race 07 demo and you'll see what a car should sound like.
this is, for the most part the same sound system you find in GT4. (they sound like a blender...)
I agree with you about the in car view, it's very nice... the shadows need more res though, because sometimes when the light is hitting in a certain way the shadows looks really messy, this could've been perfected if PD had decided to do 720p native instead of 1080p, but whatever, the cars look amazing.
