I think they were trying to make the tires the challenge itself. I guess they thought that seemed like a goofy Top Gear challenge. Jeremy Clarkson: "Today! We take a purebred racing car, smack on some tires from a Buick, and put on our track."
I haven't played in a couple weeks, thought I would get a lot of game time in over winter break but so far haven't even had the PS3 on since finals week ended.
1999 Celica GT
Been playing off and on for a couple of weeks, fun game. LVL 15 as of right now. Look me up same screen name for PS3. Not a fan of the standard and premium car BS.
I will return one day.

Sure, I guess. Still doesn't make sense for other races though, like the Eiger Nordwand time trial with the 8C Competizione in the Grand Tour. The car understeers like its FWD because it's on chittychittygangbang tires.

Lol, I haven't played GT5 since the last time I popped Forza in (which I've been playing religiously) I just can't handle no clutch after having one on Forza. Can't wait for Forza 4, which sucks because GT5 was the whole reason I bought my PS3...

... same.
I ended up trading my PS3 to a brand new slim Xbox 250GB; and it came with Forza Motorsports & Alan Wake... haven't played either yet, but I'm so glad I kept my wheel from my Xbox Elite days... (which I traded btw for the PS3 to begin with... lol)

sorry to burst your clutch bubble guys. but Logitech G27 has a clutch and a pretty realistic gearbox
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5-BowDSEc0Comes with a chick with huge racks as well. -_-
I know about that but honestly I kind of just like the controller

although don't get me wrong that thing is definitely badass and I'd get one if I had money to burn.

The cars aren't?
The cars available on the lot keep changing as you progress. Go win more races instead of just trying to buy cars

Used to have both of them. Send me a friendrequest(same as username on here), and I'll send you one or both. I can't remember if I sold the 70's celica or not...

GT5 was probably the biggest gaming letdown in history in the end.

Finally admits it.
I decided this the first time I launched a car...or when I found out there was no clutch.

Still better than Forza though

I'm surprised you think that way, I'm still playing. It's not great in parts, i.e. ****ty standard models...but where it's good, it's good. I don't think Gran Turismo can be beat for sheer rubber-on-tarmac feeling.

It felt unfinished, and has sadly been surpassed in gameplay terms by other racers.
It needs a huge overhaul.
