Maybe you know Bingham

ive seen a lot of cars with no price, it just says -- ; these are concept cars mainly - are we ever allowed to purchase these?

Yes somehow you are dont ask me how though also classic cars if you buy them they take a while to come in some i think. :)

Right, got a car (Audi), bought my house (well, penthouse suite with nice 19" widescreen monitor overlooking the bay), had my first race (came first, but it is easy!) and er, loving it!

The play area is MASSIVE, and haven't unlocked it all yet. Initial impressions, I likey like.

Got to take time out soon though for Dead Rising!!

No, no car damage :)

No car damage? That's a big miss in my book because all I encountered on the demo were idiots driving on the wrong side of the road etc and people generally being a pain in the backside.

Car damage would have put a stop to that, especially if it meant having to pay for it as well.

Even if it meant you just brought a brand new ferrari and someone smashed into it, and your left with a buggered ferrari you just spent $100k on i think id be fuming.

Its would be to complex i would have thought to include an Insurance thing although it would be a good idea. Plus a lot of thing havnt made the game still dosnt make it a bad game.

Also another reason is licenceing laws until car company allow there cars to be roughed up we wont see it. And for another reason as some companies would allow damage and some wouldnt it would be pretty weird seeing some cars damaged and some not.

There not no damage completely though AI traffic has damage. :)

The paper map details where all the dealers and tuning shops are. There are tuning shops for calssics, european, italian etc. Just find them on the map and set the GPS. It also tells you where the Auto Paint shops are, I am looking for one of them now.

Fully Tuned A3 with wacky paint here we come!

Im not sure how to unlock the Paint shops :(

The Car Delivery challenges are the best ive done 3 now, each time something has clipped me right near the end and ive lost about $300 :( Problem is if you do it perfect you can get massive bonuses :(

Look for the Car icons with a Down arrow poitning down on them
