Analog, HuskyGT: Well, nice to see some honest opinions and seriously written replies 👍 You make a trully valid points in this quest for premium cars.

I especially can appreciate the personal touch to a car. I honestly didn't really think of that, but as I read this, I think to myself - now that isn't bad. As far as the driving position goes - I like the standard bumper view. I am very used to it throughout the GT series, and therefore I use it mostly. I don't tend to use cockpit view for serious racing, only for pleasurable free roaming. Therefore I don't think so highly of it. I still agree, that is is a great view and gives you a nice feeling for car, but it feels limiting to me (maybe due to a smaller screen :D) and I especially don't like the wheel movement animation.

Anyway, I do believe, if PD are adding more cars to GT5, they definetly won't be standard, so that fear can be forgotten.

Have a nice day to both of you and thank you for expressing your opininons on this in such a nice fashion.

Thanks man. What can I say, i'm a die hard VeeDub fan.:sly:👍

Also, I have won many a race with that car. Its pretty handy around cape ring.

Its also a very limited edition car (only 250 ever made) so I think it deserves premium status.

I would pick more. Maybe i'll produce another list in a couple of weeks.

You´re very welcome, man! You know I´ll probably give that bumper cam a try. Specially with the special events and to see if I can finally gold all licences with it. I find it a little bit hard to use, but maybe I´m missing something that cockpit doesn´t give me.
