If the M4 Akrapovic & Gallaro SL Step 3 weren't included in the console edition that's clearly a licensing issue. It's not like they just didn't feel like giving them to console players, or there were space limitations. The fact that those 2 cars are not stock leads me to believe the respective companies weren't giving the nod to include them in Kunos's console version of AC. That's just a guess, of course... Although, it's not like Kunos intentionally holds content back just to steam up console players.
The teaser photo is the only "official" thing that I remember, but it's been discussed at length on the forums and Stefano has made minor admissions during these conversations. It's either Marco or Stefano who have stated (going back before the console version existed) the 250 GTO is one of their favorite cars ever and it would be included at some point. We know the Ferrari pack will be coming so I would expect it will be in that DLC pack. I'd count on a fall release at earliest, in my own personal estimation. I believe it's been un-officially confirmed that the British Pack will be released before the Ferrari Pack. Plus, there are still some free cars to come.

Now we are talking. April finally a month to get our hopes up. I would believe that PC probably gets that paid Audi/Toyota DLC with those Mazdas.

According to Marco, both the Miata and the 787B will be released "very soon".[/QUOTE] they said the same about lobbies after the August release lol
Really hope the next is the month we get the feature we were promised.

This is nice suprise to learn that the Mazdas will be free content. I was expecting them to be packaged with Laguna Seca as paid DLC.

They are both mods that were acquired and made into official content, as a general rule when that happens they will be provided for free.

Holy blast from the past Batman!Good to see you pal.
Thank you BrandonW77, what's the feelings on potential disappointment with private lobbies?

Eh, lots of reasons. Private lobbies aren't going to magically fix all the other problems or missing features. Plus, if ConsoleLand is anything like PC-Land it's rather difficult to get a regular group of racers together for club or league racing on a regular basis. And, knowing Kunos, there will likely be some bizarre design/functionality decisions taken with how the private lobbies work that will either leave out or cripple important features. I could be wrong, hopefully I am.
Well, the website does say (and has always said) "fully...customizable multiplayer" which pretty clearly suggests some type of private lobby feature because the current structure doesn't seem to be customizable at all.

l'm sure Stephano stated that private lobbies would support league events? l would like to think that means basic features like:-
- car choice
- track choice
- lap amount
- fixed setup

Why you guys think we are set to be disappointed by them? i mean as long i have something private or invite only on the line of gt6 i'll be happy.

That's a pretty vague statement though. Technically GT5 and GT6 supported league events, but you had to do all the legwork yourself because all it really offered was a place to hold the races. You'd think the things you listed would be a given for multiplayer options in a racing sim, but then you'd also think things like reverse grids, ability to choose your livery, and rolling starts would be givens as well. All I'm saying is don't set your expectations too high.

The website goes like this:
The comma after single player indicates that the fully customizable part does not apply to the multiplayer modes. That is how I read it.

The new lobbies couldn't be supportive of leagues if the car, track and lap count were predetermined? The fixed setup option is current but grayed out, so l think it reasonable to expect that. The reverse grids, success ballast, rolling starts and livery choice would be nice but l do hear you loud and clear there could be strange happenings afoot in the land of kunos

True, but considering this is possibly a translation I'm not sure how much faith can be put in comma placement, and if their intent was not to say that multiplayer had those features then its placement in the middle of that sentence makes no sense. Are drift challenges currently available online?

l'm sure Stephano stated that private lobbies would support league events with the announcement of starting work on private lobbies.
