The cars with interior now have an indication in the dealership :-)

Edit: tree'd

Nice Birthday present PD

 

[iainoflo85]

So another update with another unexpected car (or 2 if you count the second Merc VGT) but no Community features?

Kinda bummed, but at least we got new content. That's a good thing right?

 

[Jose Frias]

Minor update to the main menu looks good.

 

[stuff1138]

Jose your TV is sideways

 

[ironman44321]

WWWWHHHHAAAAATTTT???!!!!!??? PD, why are you so good to us? More free cars? I'll be right back!

 

[CinnamonOD]

Those things are noisy, I'm leading by 8 second and I can hear the cars, but you cannot when using the cockpit view

 

[eSZee]

I'm scared to even attempt the championship...don't even want to think about the final vettel challenge.

The car itself has a lot of wheelspin and a lot of grip, might be hard to control in mid-speed sections

PD released this video:

Haha darn, I was a little to late posting the video!

Looks straight to me.

I haven't been able to play in nearly 2 weeks...I'm dying! I'll have some time tomorrow so I'll pull out my old wheel (my new one was broken when I got it so I'm for a replacement) and play for as long as possible!

 

[Foxiol]

This time PD put everything that came in the update very detailed in their website. Glad to see that:

I just turned my game off to go to bed, oh well i wasn't tired anyway

 

[cbb]

wow really? thats really cool. i was really confused why they didnt do that for the other updates

 

[CinnamonOD]

Wish me luck, I'm going to do the fan car challenge

Is not that hard, I beat the gold time by four seconds (Monza), now it is Spa's turn, then Suzuka

Agreed, that's good of them, at last.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Well, that event is going to take me a while to finish. I couldn't even do the redbull event that was in GT5.

I love the SEMA Corvette GT Concept though and can't wait to try the Racing Series VGT Mercedes.

 

[RACECAR]

Haha, and to think all the people in the other thread were freaking out about the Red Bull update being pushed to February. Like I said, lots of freaking out and no solid conformation.

And well damn, guess that winged Mercedes VGT is actually happening, just thought it was one of the stages of the design.

And finally: Hugely surprised to see the Corvette from SEMA in the game, wasn't expecting that.

I was hoping for it, but yes it's definitely a nice early surprise.

 

[ironman44321]

Jesus I love this game, did a little playing around with the controller (haven't done that in over a year!) just because I couldn't stay away. Going to wait until tomorrow to do the events and such though.

P.S. Anyone else find it way, way easier to drift with the DS3? I took my 458 to streets of willow and could pretty much do donuts around that painted circle on the skid pad for as long as I wanted.

So no Mercedes interior.... but we got the same car with a big spoiler on the back?

Oh, you

It's not the same car. It's more powerful, lower, lighter, and more aerodynamic. You know, a racing version.

I guess it was lost in translation then.

Oh good, because that thing needs downforce and
Wait they made it lower?

 

[ironman44321]

Yup, here's a full breakdown of all the non-visual changes made to the car.

"The AMG 5.5 liter V8 Twin Turbo has been raised to 591 HP, and the 7 speed dual clutch transmission has been optimized for transmission performance rather than ride comfort; now changed to a sequential transmission with dog links. Though the original is already extremely light at 1,385 kg, equipment for utility and comfort have been omitted to reduce the weight down to 1,300 kg. Lowering the ride height even further, the center of gravity has also been lowered for better circuit performance."

I can't wait to drive it! I love the big beast that is the normal one so this should be great!

Yeah I drove the new one and it shifts so hard, my coffee fell out of the cupholder and burned my leg

Anyway, the new cars look awesome, though my main focus is on the X Challenge.
