You'll probably have to wait a while untill you can get the Typhoon?

I was thinking the same thing, most of the REALLY cool cars will probably be really expensive or only be available by winning races. Still won't stop me from working my way towards having the Typhoon and any other cars that interests me in my garage.

You're probably right, and you'll probably hear some bad language from me as I fail some of the more advanced license tests for the 50'th time, LOL

From what I've read, if you've completed GT3 you can upload 100,000 Cr. to your GT4 file via the garaqge menu in GT4 (it's totally optional though). I've been hearing this from people in the US who have the game and have been buying BMW M3's as their first car. A pretty good idea I reckon for those people who don't have the time or the patience to unlock everything slowly.

I am eagerly awaiting the release of this, i have all the others, and have always started from scratch, its the best way, and most rewarding!
I cant wait to get stuck into it, and the logitech 900 degree steering wheel will get a good workout!

Anyone in Sydney may be interested in buying GT4 from Domain as they are offering 2 General Admission tickets ($80 value) to the Eastern creek round of the V8 Supercars. Offer valid untill 28/03/2005.

What? I didn't even think it, honest! _2:

I thought you wanted a bowling ball with "Homer" on it... :hihi:

Anyway, to save me from the horrors of a google search, does anyone know of a confirmed list of cars that are in GT4?

I'll bet they didn't include such legendary cars as the Escort Twin Cam, Mk I RS2000, Mk II RS1800 or Mk II RS2000, but there will be much more then one Skyline...

/me wanders off mumbling to himself

I've got it pre-ordered. Don't bother with EB, you can get it cheaper in millions of places. I pre-ordered it for $84.95.

I'll get an F6 and see what clutch upgrade options we have....pffft naw I'm getting the GT, stuff this TQE rubbish.
