Sony didn't release a full list of the cars in the game yet, right?
I did read somewhere that out of the supposedly 1000+ cars, 800 will be updated versions of cars found in previous games. So does that mean there will be 800 lame Japanese eco boxes and only 200 interesting cars? And will it take a grueling amount of dull license tests before you actually get to drive the cool stuff?
If this game is as good as it's hyped up to be, I *might* finally give in and get me one of them fancy playstations. But I fear it'll be a bit same old, same old. Graphics look nice though.

Track editor confirmed! Go-karts! Weather!
From this interview: PlayStation 3 News Articles: - Talking games with Shuhei Yoshida
What can we look forward to when Gran Turismo 5 releases on PlayStation 3?
Gran Turismo 5 will offer gamers an experience more rich, more in-depth and more exciting than they might expect - even from a series as closely identified with innovation and invention as Gran Turismo. Not only will Gran Turismo 5 deliver an even more comprehensive set of cars and courses than gamers saw with previous iterations, it will also feature new game-enhacing graphical effects such as damage, night racing and weather.
These innovations are twinned with the option to join millions of like-minded individuals globally within the Gran Turismo community and to find a driving experience to suit, whether that is taking on the Top Gear test track, chucking cars around stunt arenas, go-karting, creating and sharing your own track or intense head-to-head races. Who, where and what to drive is completely down to the individual.
This time around Gran Turismo is likely not just to be the definitive driving experience but a definitive gaming experience full stop.

Track editor is going to be so FTW. I hope it's full blown and anyone can actually create any track from scratch and share it on the network ... how insane would that be? 2 weeks and every single track on the planet is replicated ...

GT5 screenshots & video of Rome track. Photomode pictures *might* be 18Mp. Polyphony Digital said they could make it 18Mp or I think around 8Mp? The detail is amazing.

A thought on the custom track editor. What if it is like a Gymkhana type editor where you can make your own course on a pre defined area with pylons, barriers etc. Still a track editor but not like rebuilding Mosport or Road America etc
Looks like Photo Mode might be 18mp. More pics:

New video of some muscle cars, LeMans cars, old rally cars (Stratos, Alpine 110), and some sweet old Italian cars (Alfas, etc.).
