Basically, Gran Turismo 5 features just over a thousand cars. Give or take variations on a single vehicle (for example, the seventy Nissan Skylines) that leaves about 800 individual machines. Approximately 200 of them are what the game calls ‘Premium’ – built especially for Gran Turismo 5 and featuring damage, cockpit view, working high beam headlights, wipers and come with the ability to change wheels. When coupled with the game’s often stunning lighting engine, these Premium cars look fantastic, real even, and easily on par with anything else on the market (and frequently breathtaking in the Photo Mode). The problem is, anyone with basic maths will have realised that there’s a huge amount of Standard cars remaining, roughly 75% of the total.

These Standard cars are mosty ported over from Gran Turismo 4 and Gran Turismo PSP, and it shows. They’re still reasonably impressive given their last-gen roots, but they don’t hold a candle to the Premiums and the differences side-by-side can be startling: blocky textures replace mechanical seams, headlights look like stickers, they don’t have an internal cockpit view and they don’t suffer visual damage save for a few superficial scratches and marks. The game tries to split the two sets of cars neatly by ensuring that all ‘new’ cars from the Dealerships are Premium and all second-hand cars from the Used Dealership are Standard, but the game is still happy to award Standard cars as you progress through GT Mode.


- pure f*ckin FAIL.

In the latest issue of Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu (via AndriaSang), Kazunori Yamauchi has revealed that [at least some of] GT5’s “standard” cars will be upgraded to “premium” models in future updates to the game. This is good news for many fans who may have initially been disappointed their favorite car didn’t get the “premium” treatment (with a more detailed 3D model and interior view), though we still don’t know, of course, which or how many models will actually be upgraded

Which makes me believe even more that this game was rushed and it's unfinished.

The menus are the worst i have ever seen...clunky n pure fail.

yes i agree it was rushed , the cockpit graphics are not what i expected but its still a great game to me , seems like they gonna release a new patch soon to add even more features because currently the server is down under maintenance

So i woke up this morning and my prediction was dead on , there is a new update.

Gran Turismo 5 v1.05 Update Brings New Events & More, Available Now
Gran Turismo 5 December 20th, 2010 by Jordan






The latest update to Gran Turismo 5, version 1.05, was made available just a few hours ago and weighs in at 608MB. Here’s a quick, official summary of all the new changes, but users are discovering a few more new tweaks in our forums as well:

Seasonal Events: [Seasonal Events] have been added to the [GT Mode] – [GT Life] screen. From here you can participate in official online events from the Polyphony Digital team. In these events, all participants are under the same regulations, and if you complete the event you will win rewards and experience. Compete on the leader boards with players around the world, in Time Trials and Drift Trials!


Online Collector’s Dealership:An [Online Collector's Dealership] has been added to the left and centre of the [GT Mode]-[GT Life] screen. In here you will find popular and rare cars. You might just come across that one car you’ve always been looking for, that you haven’t been able to find in the [Used Car Dealership].


Online Race Rewards and Experience: When you complete a race in the [Open Lobby] or [My Lounge], you will now gain rewards and experience points. Even if you are focused more on playing online, you’ll still be able to gain rewards and levels that you need to progress in [GT Life].


Driving Distance and Number of Wins in Online Races: The driving distance and the number of wins you achieve when you complete a race in [Open Lobby] or [My Lounge] will now affect your stats in [Profile] and the [Garage]. Here the results from your online play will cumulate within [GT Life].


Improved Rewards: The rewards for winning races in both A-Spec and B-Spec in [GT Mode]-[GT Life] have been increased for a limited time only. (This applies until the end of January 2011.) This is a great chance for those who were previously having difficulties getting ahead in the game, due to a lack of funds for tuning and purchasing required cars.
Race Information Display: It is now possible to set the [Race Info Display] in [Start]-[Quick Options]. (You can also set this in [Race Display] in [Options]).


Save Data Backup: You can now copy and restore your save data. For details, please refer to the in-game [Manual].
User BGM (Menu): From [Options]-[Hardware]-[Audio Settings], it is now possible to set the [User BGM] (Menu)]. (This can also be set from the [Music Library] within [GT Mode]).


Car Name Change: The official name of “Red Bull X1″ has been changed to the “Red Bull X2010″.


Integration with the Website: The main features within [GT Mode]-[Community] can now also be accessed through the “gran-turismo.com” official website.


[Important Note:] We have made improvements to the [Log] within [GT Mode]- [Community] section, in order to make its operation more stable. Please note that the information that was contained here from before the update has been reset.


One interesting thing to note is that today, December 20th, was set to be the launch date of the US GT Academy. However, as of writing there is no mention of this in the latest update, though presumably it may appear in the new “Seasonal Events” later. Stay tuned for more, and thanks to all who sent this in so quickly!
