I bet that Jaguar would do well in the historic race. I dont know if I have the patience to wait 3 days though.

It would, the Jag is pretty bitchin.




Here are some shots I took of my Fiat 500 I JDM's all out, lol.

If you look close at that 2nd, there is a small spot on the rear window. This is what that spot really is if you zoom in. Goes to show how crazy the detail is in this game.

And because I've never taken any shots of my favorite car in the game, here are a few shots of my Stealth McLaren F1.

I agree. That P4 was really twitchy under braking (no ABS ).

I read somewhere that the XJ13 can't be used in the historic car race. Not sure though.

I heard that too, I really hope we can get it here. I heard another source say that anyone with access to PSN can download it for free.

Both of these options are much cheaper than purchasing a historic race car.
If I don't get that Jag I'll be doing that for sure. Thanks for the tip

Sorry to say, the Jag is useless even if you get it. All the chromeline cars have no years, you could never use them for the date restricted championships.

My exact reaction that thing is tough to drive fast though (I go no traction or stability ).

And the Formula GT is making the game easy for me. I just did Like the Wind and GT All Stars with it. I left them at the start line. Now that I have the Minolta I'll go easy on 'em during the Dream Car Championships
But during the All Stars race at the Nordschleife I ran a 5:53! And I sorta suck with that thing!!

Ha, I saw that 135i at that photo location. If you look at the car really closely, there is no one driving it! Im sure its the same for the Golf.

Now I wanted to make this a separate post for a special reason. Last year I was lucky enough to see the Pagani Zonda R in person at the Frankfurt Motor Show.

I took this shot of the side mirror, with a little bokeh in the back. This is a real photo of the real car.

Now, this was taken at close to the same angle, of the same mirror, but in GT5 (with a different background of course).

I didn't know about this thread... never been in this section actually.
I tried starting a photo only one in the Photog section but I guess I'll conform and post here.

Here are a few initial ones
