Yeh! lol.....I ment to add an exta 1 at the end! :cheeky:

Though i'd say, but at my local GAME there having a pre-order bonus of 4 cars! The Audi TT RS Coupe, Chevrolet Camaro SS, Dodge Challenger SRT8 and the Porsche Cayman S! So this at least tells us what the range of cars wil be!

well least the good news about TDU2 beeing delayed till 2011, is that this problem is now solved compleatly! Unless of course GT5 is released in 2011 now!:eek:

Well least now i've got time to Play GT5 and NFS without having to fit TDU2 into that now! Still really annoying though!:cry:

Though i'd update this a bit..... Info from Pistonheads.com

Lol, its got a point though!:D

Yeh, most Trackday cars cost sub £50K!(Caterhams, lotus's, TVR's, etc)...although I prefer Lotu's other trackday car..the Lotus 2-elevan! And it could be worse, You could pay a few million and only be allowed to use your car when told by the manufacture and you have to keep it at the Factory!(I'm looking at you Ferari!) Also Random fact, It's got the 125 part in the name...as the way Lotus number there products means this is there 125th model! (the Lotus 7 was there 7th Model! And the numbers dont count just for cars! Theres an olympic bike on that numbering system too!)

hey, though i'd shire this with you guys! First of all, this is't a Elise/Exige Special edtion, compleatly diffrent! The Exos Type 125, is Lotus's all new trackday car! http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z23/calster-17/Car%20Pictures/lotus_exos-type-125_f34_ns_80910_717.jpg 25 will be built and it'll cost around £600K. And what you get is a 10,800rpm 645bhp 3.5-litre Cosworth V8, a carbon-fibre monocoque and a power-to-weight ratio getting close to 1000bhp per ton! On top of this you get to be part of a special Club(limited to the owners of the other cars) and get to take part in 5 lotus trackdays! If this sounds very Ferrari FXX and 599XX, it does, but unlike them you can take it to normal trackdays without a pit crew! And not have to worry about engine!(although a 3000 mile rebuild will be needed) Apperntly the whole things had little to do with the Lotus F1 Team, and was all done by lotus Sport! It's ment to be production reday by next year! And heres a picture for the road... http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z23/calster-17/Car%20Pictures/lotus_exos-type-125_prf_ns_80910_717.jpg *Sorry, posted wrong pic here at first!

Not the best of qualty, but thats what i get for playing Shift on the PS3!(there pic upload is just bad!!) http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z23/calster-17/Other%20stuff/imageCAOUNVSA.jpg My 180SX(i like the JDM name) in a nice, simple style!

Not much from me, i saw my First honda CR-Z on the road, and could't help but wish it had proper motor and not a hybrid! I also saw my Second Jag XJ(current gen), first time i saw one was two weeks ago, and it was a XJ-L!(long wheelbase)...it diddent help i was behind it while on my first driving lesson!

Yeh, I'd agree with the advertising beeing a bit much, but then again When Porshce bought 2 GT-R's to see if it really could beat a GT2 or Turbo(can't remember what one) round the ring, and could't match Nissan's time with standered tyres, nissan replayed along the lines of "Thank you for buying two GT-R's, but they were US spec ones, we used Euro Spec ones on our laptime, and if your test drivers are struggling then ours will easly teach them!" But overall, most people will go down to bage snobbery! they see Audi or Porshce as beeing higher up and better! Hence why i see more 911's than GT-R's kicking around, and TT's/Camans then the Z cars! I was meaning the Chinese cars! Japanse car ae everywhere! They pritty much killed the UK car industry! That and the fact unlike the UK's they were working and not striking every second day!

They'll have updated the design a bit, even though it's great its still about 5 years old(is't it?) Also One thing thats good is that its got normal doors unlike the Fenomenon!(They were weird on CM:DiRT!)

It's Compleatly Dead! :cry: And its been repaired once, semi-repaired again(thats when i knew it was truly dead as they could't fix it) and my bro's been tinkering with it and had no results! But its nice to have in your place as people think you have a PS3!(what my bro's doing with it! lol)

It's a Fact, pop-up's make any car 10 times better! If that car is mid-engine then that cranks it up even more! Appert from the pop-up's..the car also needs is the 'blinds' accross the back window! Car's with them top the scales! The original Stratos had them and so did the Lamborghini Miura! *Does anyone know the real name for them? I know some Ford Capri's even had them!

Well as stated, this Is for What game should i get, i'm getting both! Its what should i spend the points of my Game card on!(which i have £25 as a descovered, not £30) Well as it stands, i'll most probally get TDU2 fuseing the points from my card. As GAME are only doing the Standered edtion & the Signature Edition of GT5. And i'm not up for splashing out £150 for a game! The Collectores edtion is a sort of in the middle....not standered but got some extras! I just hope EU/UK preorder stuff get announced for TDU2! Or as i suggersted in my first post...i'll use the Points on my Card to get the new NFS! As Game are offering some extras if you get it from there! Sure, i've got my old one acting as a paperweight!:cool: Only problem is you'd have to fix it.....

I has an idea bout it! It's eather A) A New **** car much the like Alfa 8C, or B) its a one-off for a wealthy enthusiast, basing it on a current Ferrari? eather way, I'm happy! And with Lancia in TDU2...this could make some nice DLC!:cool:

I'm getting both of the games anyway!(as i said in the first post) :D What i'm meaning, what should i use my Game card for, as it has £35 or so on it! Should i use it to buy the Collectors edtion GT5(which will cost about £20 on top of the £40) or The normal Edtion of GT5 or TDU2? The disadvantage with buying TDU2 from GAME at the moment is theres no pre-order bonue's announeced yet! and if i pre-order TDU2 from Atari i get the 370Z 'Yellow'. But for the time beeing i'll get TDU2 from GAME then, since i could get it for £5 essentually!

Hello I'm having a bit of a problem, and its not that i'm struggling on what game out of these two to pic, as i'm getting both! The problem is, I've got about £35 on my GAME card, which has built up for some time(havent cahsed in the points since 2 erly 2008) and the plan was to use that to get GT5. But i've got a feeling that the GT5 'Collectors Edtion'(google it, its got some nice extras for about £20) so i'm going to order that online. But at the same Time TDU2's Pre-Order Bonus for the UK is still just the 370Z Yellow, which i'm wanting(as its the only bonus announced so far). Now should i just ditch the idea of getting the TDU2 Pre-Order bonus and use my GAME card to get TDU2 for £5 when it comes out...or wait and see if GAME will sell the GT5 colletors edtion? The 3rd option is just to get both games with cash, and just use my GAME card points to get NFS: Hot Pursuit? So what do you guys think i should do? Cheers in Advance!:cool:

I'm loving this song at the moment! I'm a fan of the Kinks, but this live edtion is better than the original song!

Thats what i'm saying, and yes, Most Nissans can't compeat with Audis and that! But i'm meaning how populer they are! The Japanese car makers can experiment now with making Euro Killers! Lexus has been taking a pot at the big 3 german's luxary cars is an experiment of this! Same for the LF-A & GT-R are aimed at the estalbished sports car makers! (although lowering the price of the LF-A by some ammout would help them more) Also anyone seen the new Nissan advertising campaign? In the UK at least there taking the mic out of the German rivals for the 370Z, even buying a Cayman & TT, and putting stickers on them such as "More expensive, slower and less powerful than a Nissan 370Z," on the side of the TTS, and the similarly labelled-up Porsche Cayman saying "I dream of being as fast as a Nissan 370Z". Full Story here! Also im i right in thinking were still on topic since were going on about Japanese copys!? Anyway's more Chinese cars.... Old Style BMW X5? Nope, its the Shuang Huan SCEO SUV. Chevy/Daewoo Matiz? Nearly there but its the Chery QQ. Rover 75? Wait that is Actually the Rover 75! Albit a new name and slight update!

It's ok, but I hope they dont drop Colin McRae's name from the title! Also i hope it doen't turn out to be 'Ken Block and the X-Games' like DiRT2 was! Codemasters can do a great job of things! I just hope that since theres an Official WRc game out this year that they'll go back to where it's all about the rally!(with a bit of the Gymkhana, i dont mind that!:cheeky:). But if it's got other types of offroading then it's a no from me! I like my Rallying where your driving like crazy in a forrest, or on the twisty roads of monty carlo! Eather way i've herd plans here that it'll be more Rally focused!(although thats a rough guess from the things said!)

Ah, though it'd probs just be the 'Yellow Edtion', i read about it last year...but i was having high hopes! lol Heres a better pic of if it... http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z23/calster-17/Car%20Pictures/JDM%20Stuff/car_photo_315784_25.jpg Well unless we Europeains got told theres other Pre-Order stuff, i guess i'll just get this! Least it'll mean i'll have a semi-good car when i start! Although on the plus side, all the people who will got for the DBS/V12 Vantage carbon will have a problem that people who own them in real life have...The idea of a special edtion Supercar is pointless, as it makes the car even less special as if you were to order it your self! As there is now however number of cars that ares that are exactuly the same! Wheres if you spec it your self, theres Millions of combinations to pic from!

There still lerning, many early Datsons were Rustbuckets and i dont think manufactures cheacked there cars for safety back in the 60's/70's...appert from Volvo or Saab! Who's cars were just tanks! As i said, Lets all laugh while we still car! Soon all our favorite Chinese Brands will be sold over in Europe, US, Japan and Down under! But then again, people in China do love imports, For example why do you think most preimum manufactures make special China only models? Jaguar are making a XF-L(Long wheelbase) and Porsche Panamera was officially launched at the Chinese motor show! And things are changing...in the past it was seen that driving the car was a sign you wernt a 'high roller', but now a new genration of 'high rollers' are comming about seeing how in the west that Ferraris and Lambos are a sign of wealth! Hense why Theres the 599 China Edtion and the Lambo Merc SV China! So it'll be intresting to see how things go! As i said, the Chinese Car Manufactures are lerning!

Anyone know if there's any more UK Pre-Order bonus's other that Atari's one? I'm hoping they do announce later as it's a little annoying that the US get all of them? And befour you say "Pre-oder it from the states", Although the PS3 is region free, the DLC is not! I did this with NFS:PS, getting a US copy, played fine but when the DLC came out and i bought it on the UK/EU PStore, it would't work! Other friends have had this with other games! Although i dont mind the Atari bonus, as not many people will have it i think! hopefully anyways!

not much of what i say does make sense really! :cheeky: lol What i'm meaning is that i could't care if somthings breeching the NDA or not...not as if there pirating the beta and letting people download it off the internet! But it's nice to let Atari know if people are breeching there contract!
