It may not be a "NASCAR focused" game but there IS particular focus on NASCAR by the trademarked logo they've been splashing all over the place as well as WRC which they've been a little less willing to flaunt. But dude they HAVE been flaunting NASCAR big time with this game. Talking about having all the rules, a video with the head guy going to a NASCAR event and talking with the drivers, etc.

I wouldn't worry too much about lack of cockpit views. I'm sure they will be available, just not exact... you may have cases where in an '08 and dash is actually representative of an '05.

Case in point, the 1st gameplay video of the Mazda Miata. You can clearly see the dash view. Looking at the list, all the Miatas are "standard" cars.

As for the car list, I like it, but Polyphony really dropped the ball with the entry level cars in my opinion, as well as a few that I was hoping for. I sure would've liked to see:

Dodge Caliber SRT4 '06
Dodge Charger '06
Dodge Neon '00
Dodge SRT-4
Ford Fiesta '08
Honda Fit Sport '09
Hyundai Genesis Coupe '08
Mazda Mazda2 '07
Nissan Pulsar GTI-R '94
Nissan Pulsar '05
Nissan Tiida '04 (Versa SL for NA)
Scion tC '04
I'm also disappointed about not having:
2011 Ford Mustang GT (412hp w/better handling vs the '05 GT with 300hp)
2011 Ford Mustang 500 (570hp)

And from your list.
'08 Hyundai Genesis Coupe
'06 Dodge Charger SRT

Re: Gran Turismo 5 Official Car and Track List

This may seem nerdy, but I can't wait to try out the test track, timing cars and such. I love crunching all of these numbers that you can get. It's gonna be awesome

Re: Gran Turismo 5 Official Car and Track List

Will we be able to choose what cars we race against, or is it random based on class or whatever

What video?

The few that managed to get their hands on the game early have reconfirmed that there's no interiors or cockpit view for standard cars. These are ported over from GT4, lack the deformation and dislodging of body panels, and low/high beam headlights of the premium cars.

Re: Gran Turismo 5 Official Car and Track List

Some of you guys might like fooling yourself into thinking this is great but both lists are pretty disappointing. The track list is embarrassing for a game this size and cockpit views for only 20% of the total cars is pathetic. They hang thier hat on this simulation aspect but 80% of the cars only allow you arcade views of driving. That's a game killer in my book and I can't see how it isn't for anyone else.

What the hell did they spend 6 years doing with this game. What a joke. they won't be getting my money because I can guarantee online will be a joke like it is for every other sports game so with all these track and car limitations this game will get boring quick. I don't have time to dick around with a track editor, just give me some new tracks. I'll wait 6 months and get it for $25 (something tells me there will be a ****load of used copies around) used if there aren't any bugs which is highly unlikely.
