These game elements get unlocked at certain levels

This thread is aimed to gather information at all the stuff that get unlocked when you reach a certain level, like for example from almost no damage to mild damage to full damage with parts falling off. But I would also like to use this thread to confirm those aspects.

Ok, I start:

level ??: full customizable transmission

level 40: full damage with parts falling of (rumor?!)

level ??: increased realism

All of these rumours were debunked long ago, before the game was even released for those of us practicing the art of logic. Damage is unlocked from the start, as is whatever "realism" you're talking about. Fully customizable transmission is not in the game, apologies on behalf of Kaz and the boys at PD.

Also, lol at fire.

Picture of car catching fire in GT5? LOL.

I've seen dents and dings from the start. Bump into another car and it will dent fairly often.

Pretty damn retarded that you can't customize the transmission as it states in the transmission help menu that "beginners should avoid adjusting the gear ratios" until they know what they're doing. Why would they even say this if you can't make adjustments?
