No no no, it's just a completely and stupid ramdom date that they choose by doing loto. It's obvious

FM4 doesn't have steering assists in sim mode. That conversation has already been beaten into the ground, and it was discovered that those the people saying otherwise, didn't know what they were talking about. Turn-10 has already explained what players were seeing.
Having played FM3, the demo of FM4, and GT5, FM4 has the most realistic physics.

In this picture, why does it feel like I haven't seen that RX7 before? It looks to be Race Modded if anything...

That's because it is. New RM cars appear to be apart of the Spec 2.0 update or the DLC car pack.
Don't tell me what to do, please.

I guess that it will be about 2 gig in size and will take many hours to download no matter what speed your connection is due to the fact that tens of thousands (if not, more) people will be downloading the update as soon as it is live. I bought the Black Ops zombie map pack from the PSN the day it became live and it took about 4 hours to download and that was about 2 gigs worth and I have a 50meg connection at that.

Overall I am very excited for this update. The one thing I thought I remember hearing before all this news, was that they were extending A-spec. Or did I read it wrong prior to this?
I think putting more replayability into it by extending and adding championships within A and B-spec (manufacturer races, rivals) would do this game wonders. At the same time, upping the level cap to 50 while tripling rewards like the Seasonals for the A and B-spec would also be great.
Don't get me wrong Seasonals are great right now and some are challenging, but they just seem like a big money grab most of the time and the rewards just aren't as cool as getting a prize car.
Also I think adding rims (and extending the selection) for standards is a still an idea I like and I hope they implement it. Why? Well, really if I watch a replay of some of the standards that have crappy hubcaps (i.e. 95 Eclipse comes to mind) it really looks terrible hotlapping a course. I just want the car to look a bit more unique while racing, is all.
But really, this update will have my copy of GT5 doing double duty when it comes out next week haha. So many new things to check out...its going to be great!

The thing that still irks me about A-Spec and how short it is, is how long it would have taken to add more events. I mean they're just code, there is nothing to model, nothing to build, just some parameters in code setting the tracks/laps/cars/etc.
One or two people could come up with 50 odd new events in a day, and surely coding them wouldn't take more than a couple.
Even without new ones, they could have extended the current ones with more events. I mean they beautifally modelled the GT500 cars and then rather than give us a long, meaty championship of 10 odd races we get THREE races that aren't even a championship.
All the man hour on the cars, the tracks, and we get three races?
That is why I really want more proper A-Spec races, because they're so easy to add compared to other stuff.

Did anyone else notice that along with weather changes, you can now set the time progression? That is really cool and a feature i've been wanting but didn't think would be possible to implement. I'm looking forward to driving on Le Mans, with real time day/night cycles.

Hooray. That`s what we needed. 11 new Nascars. 
To me they look like...
To me they look like...
Look deeper young one, in the midst of this race you can clearly see (
) a race modded Impreza and Skyline (they have the GT sticker on the top of the windscreen).As for this update, many things I wanted aren't in it but most importantly there is enough there to make me a happy man
.And finally, for the DLC Mr Yamayauchi, I will except:
Spa, Pikes Peak
Pug 908, Recent Audis, Lola AMR 007, Volvo 240 (preferably estate)
Nothing less and remember our organisation doesn't except failure.

Love all the replies in here of buying PSN cards. Nobody have enough faith in Sony to pop their credit card in? HAHAHA!
