Just been watching the dealership demos of the new cars. Love the lambos engine. Sat there watching it drive around from daylight to dark.

Want it!

The latest Car Pack 3 DLC will add more new cars to Gran Turismo 5, and will be released for sale on the PlayStation®Store from January 17th, 2012. The price of the DLC will be $5.99.
Featuring cars from both past and present, it includes Lamborghini's latest flagship model Aventador, Jaguar XJR-9 LM Racecar, Aston Martin V12 Vantage, 66' Volkswagen 1200, Mini Cooper S Countryman, and Nissan Leaf. For details, please follow the link below.
- Car Pack 3

[Other Improvements]
- 12 new My Home theme colors and 12 new wallpapers for [GT Mode] have been added to the game. Please find these from the [My Home Settings]-[My Home Design] menu on the left side of the screen.
- Tire wear speed prediction has been added to the pit stop decisions in B-Spec, to prevent tires from wearing out completely during long races.
- Regenerative braking (which recovers energy by converting kinetic energy into electricity) in electric cars have been made stronger to extend driving distance.
- Electric cars will now also creep forward (as in standard automatic cars) when the brake is released without pressing the accelerator.
- Regarding the Chaparral 2J race car's performance points, the increased performance factor due to the downforce produced by the fan is now calculated.

[Correction of Known Issues]
- A issue has been corrected where the car would pit in unintentionally during the last lap of a B spec race.

[To Check Your Current Version]
To check the version of your software, press the "Manual" button at the bottom of the main menu screen. The version number will be located on the upper left of the index page in this manual.

If the number starts with "Ver. 2.03", you are playing the latest version of the game.

If not, please press the PS button and quit the game. The game will be updated automatically when you restart it with your PS3™ system connected to the internet.
 
Dang, and I almost got all the cars from the OCD. Was trying to get them before the update, cause I figured the OCD would be updated too.
 
All the new cars look amazing. Can't wait to drive the Aventador especially after seeing the one in the following picture in New York City over the weekend.

Took the Aventador and the V12 Vantage for a demo run and the sound pretty close to the videos I've seen. The Beetle looks like it will be a lot of fun to drive as well as the Mini, which comes in a ton of color options, with or without stripe.

Hey I was in NYC over the weekend to. Just got back today. Lol
 
Look like this update didn't add or change much to GT5, with exception to the addition of track and cars of course.
