Think I also saw an Escort Mk2 ( white one ) but I did also see an orange BMW X6 on the right side and a lightblue Volvo P1800 ( and a lot of Japanese cars including several Mitsubishi Starion's at the beginning ).

I was about to point out the plethora of Starions. I really hope the standard model Starions make it into the game and not just the flat nosed rally car. I almost bought a 360 and F3 to play the Starion but they still haven't released the Jalopnik classics car pack announced in March.

Also, if we have the Subaru 360 we must also have the Peel P50
 
A bit of topic but will in Japan be some GT5 demos with weather changes?,I looking forward to ikebukuro and akihabara this weekend,maybe we get some cool demos and a final prof of nunburgring in rain.
 
Not sure why you posted that here but .7s can be due to many things. Not knowing how many laps he ran with it on or off and if he ran it before or after the system was off. Let him do 20 laps with it on and the spread would be more than .7s.
Again, not sure what it has to do with the game.

maybe cuz the zr1 is in the game? and he's just stating it might be better to leave TC on in game because of the vid. And this seems to be the "general thread".
 
It's close to release, people are getting antsy.

That said, real life car talk does have a place on GTPlanet. Amazing how many people around here don't know that.
 
Here some I had found on the net, even though the article refers to prologue, they are pictures of GT5 development.

Those pictures have been searched many times for new info, it was where we first saw the Fiat 500, Z4M and C63 AMG aswell as proof of Tsukuba.

Also note the Xbox30 in the last picture.

Is that a C63 AMG in the 4th picture?

Yes.
 
Anyone check out the IGN article, the cover weather conditions and says that the PD team can not actually specify the weather, only cloudy conditions and the system determines whether or not it will be raining (I assume through temperature and humidity) so maybe it will fog, maybe it will rain and who knows how long it will rain for.

I knew this was the case, what with non accurate forcasts and what not, for endurance races, but its interesting that they can't even force it to do what they want it to.

The game's weather system is also auto-generated (on endurance-based and custom tracks only) based on a trio of interacting factors: humidity, temperature and pressure. The combination of those three elements can result in fog, rain, snow or a clear day. Yamauchi said the team cannot even impose specific weather conditions on a particular race but merely suggest them by creating cloudy weather, for example. From there, the system takes over to create weather on the fly.

That kinds sucks if you want to see who the best is between a couple of buddies on the Ring at night in the rain. I guess you will have to hope for the best.

So GT5's dynamic weather is actually Skynet?


Anyways sounds awesome and makes me relieved about my earlier questions regarding weather. I keep getting happier about this game :)

Hmmm. I'm imaging we'll still be able to force a specific weather condition for time trials, or most things leaderboard related. I do understand that it's more realistic to allow any weather conditions (like, for example, look at the constant real-life arguments about 'Ring times), but this is a video game. I don't want to have to hope for the perfect conditions just to have a good chance at making my mark on the leaderboards.

No doubt that time trials will have perfect conditions.
 
I`m sure tou can choose whatever conditions you`d like to drive in, but it`s obvious that if you want to do the best lap times, you need dry conditions. It may also have an effect if you drive in day or night, the best lap times in real life is done in daylight
