i played this at Eurogamer expo and two different consoles i played had a mega bad glitch where the track went green and all the scenery went. hope they were early builds as that's not too good only a month before release.

Builds are E3 and Gamescom so are at least 2 months old, maybe even older as a doubt the most up to date versions were shown at the shows, eg GOW3 demo last year was from ealy june.

I've just read that the US collectors edition comes with the following.

Exclusive limited edition Kyosho designed 1:43 scale diecast 2009 Nissan GT-R Spec V
In-depth 300-page car-lover’s guide written by the experts at Polyphony Digital
Custom etched Gran Turismo key chain
Voucher for 5 downloadable exclusive high-end cars with custom livery and performance upgrades
Numbered certificate of authenticity
Custom collector's packaging
All for $99
The UK collectors edition only has.
Special GT5 packaging with specialised outer box finish
Collector’s Edition inlay sleeve art
200+ page drivers/strategy guide
5 x Collector’s Edition artcards/postcards
5 x Collector’s Edition 'ChromeLine' car pack
Exclusive Polyphony designed dynamic theme
For £60
We're getting conned, think i will cancel my collectors preorder and just get the normal edition.
Ah but you're forgetting the UK signature edition for £150

£150 for a game is just ridiculous, thats more than I spend on games all year.
Yeah it is a lot but really that package is aimed at the big fans of the franchise.
What concerns me about it is if they allow all 6 of the special cars in the "Signatore Edition" to be available later as DLC for everyone.
Normal & CE editions depending where purchased will get aparently upto 2 of those cars but in fairness they should give customers of the Signature Edition exclusitivity cars/content. What people dont want is to buy such a pack later for others to also get these cars and only then end up with something like a crown beside their name, ahem. It just makes the consumer feel like a sucker.
Such Editions should give buyers ingame exclusives and keep them exclusive in my opinion.
Ive ordered both the CE and SE but unsure if I will keep the SE order but rumours circulating Sony say it should have been priced much higher, perhaps to help drum up more sales?
Thing is Im wary that within 2 months in Jan sales it could be highly discounted and thats a bit worrying...
Its time we had the Kevin Butler GT5 video(s)

Not seen anywhere list that car.
Some places though have yet not announced what cars they will have to give away.
Several stores have listed that codes will be emailed for pre orders.
So I guess some people will try to pre-order to get a code and cancel the order if they get it prior to the game dispatching.
*Cars may be made available as DLC through PSN at a later date. Codes will be emailed the week of release. Pre-order offers are subject to change at any time

I put an order in for a Fanatec GT3 RS with club sport pedals for this 
. My turbo S seems to be half dead, I'm probably way to rough with it.
Out of interest, how long should a wheel last (I am by no means a hard core racer but I do love my racing games)?

i want this for crimbo!
If that is an exclusive car can you mail me when you find out who has it please?
Probably sounds silly but I would love to have that car as my old man made parts for it. We've still got some of the merchandise from the Le Man win.
Not knowing the circumstances or how long youve had it Id be tempted to mail Fanatec and see if theyll help repair/replace your existing wheel or, if they cant, provide a discount to your next one. No harm in politely asking...I put an order in for a Fanatec GT3 RS with club sport pedals for this

They arent cheap so would expect decent performance and longevity as realistically thats what you are paying for

You can alter this yourself, Kaz said it can be from no damage or hit a wall at speed and the car is totally destroyed.
If I find out you'll know matey
Its the one CF one I want, was an amazing car and does so much more for me than any Mclaren F1 or Merc SLS!
