    Cant wait for spec. 2.0 :P i just hope spa’s there PLEASE. and also New cars, not RM ones :P altho they are welcome.

  2. jrkiwiboy

    More drift and dirt events Are great. Polyphony should also consider dedicated servers to drifting and gymkanah as well.

    DO AWAY WITH THE ONLINE DEALERSHIP!!!!

    Does anyone remember when GT5 didn’t have an online dealership? Everyone had to actually WAIT for the rare cars to show up.

    And the most credits of any race was 117k(American Championship), now the American Championship is 97k and a 1 lap ride in a Ferrari is 504k!

    Mark my word…Every room will be buzzing like the sounds of bees once the x1 is able to be downloaded. Now, every room has the 2J,2D,GT ONE, Speed 8, 1963 Corvette Race Car, and the BMW V12.

    I hope you all that really wanted the GT ONE are going to be happy seeing a room full of them!

  4. Fastback

    Are you serious? They put the Speed 8,the GT ONE, and the BMW V12 in the online dealership at the same time?
    WHY?????

    The online dealership is KILLING the rarity of the cars!!

    Can anyone answer this question: Why does the Miata show up on nearly every refreshed list on the Used Car Dealer and the Cuda only shows up twice a month at best? Do you get my point?

    1. Lambob

      what rarity? I had all cars in my Garage from every OCD refresh since 5 times ago.

      but! still no Tommy ZZII :(((((((

    That facepalm troll needs to get lost, what the hell are those dousches doing on here anyway? go and play foreskinoutofconTroll.

    AAAAAAARRRRGH the BMW V12 LMR is in the OCD! You guys want to hear a story? I thought not, but i’ll tell it anyway. The other night, the BMW popped up in the UCD, at 3.6 mil cr. I thought to myself, geez, i really don’t know when i’m going to see that one again, i’d better snap it up. I had 2.5 at the time , so it was a question of winning a few seasonal’s and i’d be good. Except i was playing really badly and not getting any wins, so i have 3.1 mil cr by the time the Beemer is right at the bottom of the UCD, one more race and it’s GONE. So i think to myself, ok, i can do a time or drift trial, because the UCD doesnt refresh when you do those. But i’d already golded both time trials and i’m B A D at drifting. Long stgory short,it took me 2 and a half hours to finally gold the Special Stage route 5 drift trial, and the BMW was mine. So, that’s my story, no, don’t mention it, was a joy to share it with y’all.

  7. pudge

    Yes! The OCD contains the last two standard cars I don’t have: Pescarolo Courage C60 – Peugeot Race Car ’03, and Audi R8 Race Car ’01.

    The only other non-DLC car I don’t have is the X2010 Prototype. I guess I gotta get working on that X2010 challenge gold. :-)

    1. Killer Tiller

      No, log on next week and you’ll get it for free when Vettel wins the F1 championship this weekend

    Figuring it out, the new OCD has a cost of approx 32mil to purchase all cars….I love it, reason to modify more unused low level cars to win seasonals with to buy the biig guns a 0 miles.

    1. Magic Ayrton

      “On the road, Forza 4’s handling is pliable. It’s fiercer and more terrifying than the previous game, with cars eager to plough into under-steer or aggressive over-steer as you blister into the corners. It doesn’t quite have the precise realism of Gran Turismo 5 though.”

      From online FM4 review.

    2. Facepalm.....

      Nice try Magic, one qoute out of a batch of reviews making it the top rated driving sim of this gen. LOL

  9. Magic Ayrton

    I agree, but Japan needs to use its companies like PD to recover quicker, I think PD sould employ more people to make new car packs now though, premium or non premium, we want all the newer ruf models, sound upgrade (induction/exhaust) and wheels for standards, more in depth painting options.. Spec 3.0 next year maybe?? Meanwhile we will try to help by buying all DLC?

  10. cccobx1

    PD really are picking up with add-ons in the last couple of months great recovery from the quake only if all of japan could have recovered this well

    1. Injured

      Such a tragedy. Well, there were more than just one tragedy in Japan these past 7 months. The things Japan has endured. It’s really disheartening to hear nothing coming out of Japan about the progress they’re making. There’s nothing that gets attention.

      Oh man.

  11. j8mie

    PD are really spoiling us with news about spec 2 and now some more seasonal updates. Just a shame the one final car I need is never in the OCD :(

    1. MrDinosaw94

      And I forgot to mention that photo…. It took me at least a minute of staring to figure out it was cape ring and not a real life back road.

      Fantastic pic

    1. King Something

      I used the Formula GT. Was in first in the worldwide rankings for all of two minutes on Wednesday night. Of course, a whole whopping 35 people had done the event at that point in time, but still…..

    1. Killer Tiller

      I’m expecting brand new cars that arent in the game for the DLC pack. I’m not paying for cars I already have

    2. Injured

      Oh obviously. I messed up. I was thinking that back then when Standards were to be converted to “full on” premiums.

    3. Rumble

      Easy way to get the 2D?J, etc…
      A or B-Spec a historic race (the one with the 2J in it) and check the UCD after each race. It is how I got my collection :)

    4. HighPlainaDrftr

      Similar situation for me, I got the 2D and missed the 2J. Do they give any warning when they change the OCD?

    5. CapnCowboy

      Same for me!! I was gonna get it last nite and that’s when I noticed the new Online Dealership…oh well, time to buy all those racecars!!

    6. Injured

      I got the 2J first because I felt something like this would happen to me so I chose the open-cockpit 2J because I thought we were going to get standard cockpit views. I can’t believe I was right.

      Let that be a lesson of procrastinating, or time management, to us all.

    1. 07_HSV_GTS

      I hate all the people that commented on the 2.0 Details Post because there is over 560 comments and anything I try to look at it on the app crashes and on Internet explorer the page doesn’t load!!! Can someone repost details Plz.
