Not sure if it's 100% correct, but the sound is nuts! Also, it takes well to tuning. Mine's up to 750 hp now.

GT mode, you can only purchase a Honda Civic Type R with that $20K they give you huh?
Looked around cant find any another decent car.

Oh yeah the throttle blip sounds while driving the F40 lovely!
Demo was totally different from this, i was dissapointed while playing it; now i think my productivity levels will decrease considerably

Bad day i suppose, all i saw was a bunch of early 90s Celicas, and expensive $100K+ racing cars.

after playing for maybe 4 or 5 hours i have to say this really is a great game.

6 years good? no.. but hey it's still a very enjoyable way to spend your time, and alot more challenging than forza which i really like, and im very excited because i've barely scratched the surface of what this game has to offer!

Oh and the amg academy tests on the nurburing are great!

I got a Miata for the first car too, and it does quite well. Second car was a GTI.

My biggest frustration is that it's very hard to predict how to tune your car. I set my GTI to be around the same power as the other cars in my race (Amateur race), and dominated the crap out of them.

I got my copy today. My first car was Civic Type R. Now i'm level 12 and I have like 400k to spend on something awesome, but I have no idea what. Any thoughts?

@joshg120: I agree, the event on the Ring rocks! Can't make it for gold, but silver is in my range with no problems
