Looks like the Aussie servers are down for maintenance. I want to try the new features!

You don't even have to do that much. Just make sure your PS3 is connected to the internet and load up the game.
For a bunch of reasons that would surely completely derail the thread if they were discussed.

I read the first 15 pages, please forgive me for not reading the next 12, but....
When using the 'online borrow' crap, do I have a choice? Can they borrow cars without my permission? If they can, does this allow access to see all of my personal tunes on the car as well?
