    I would pay 100 to 120 for the Signature edition but the current pricetag is a bit too steep for me tbh.

    It's a damn pricey raffle ticket though.

    It's a driving competition, so if you fancied yourself as a good driver in real life and in GT your odds might be better. I, however, am not :P

    not really. there is a cheaper version and with the expensive option you gain entry into a competition for an incredible prize.

    the SLS will be eligible for the historic cup races by the time they release the game

    The wait has taken away all my excitement for GT5 (but ill still buy it anyway ;) )

    It would take a japannese company to release a Limited Edition for €180 quid. Id love to hear the sales figures for this after it comes out. Throw in another €70 and you have an Xbox slim!

    Regular or maybe collectors for me.

    The signature edition is a bit too rich for my blood, but I'd love to have it otherwise. The car they're giving you a chance to win with that is worth nearly 200k AFAIK, so that's a pretty good competition.

    I think it is more in the €300k-400k region. Anyone interested should look at it on youtube. Gullwing design is class. It's a ridiculous machine.

    Don't be fooled by the competition. Even if you won you'd never be able to afford the running costs. Still I guess you could sell it and pocket the cash.

    Could you imagine the insurance on this thing haha

    Any stores have pre orders going I'm getting the Sig Edition.

    That's an awfully expensive price but it does look rather impressive. I don't think I could justify paying that price though.

    That price is shocking, I could buy a Wii for cheaper than that.
    I'll just get the normal version.

    I will be ordering the collectors edition. We all deserve to treat ourselves every once in a while. The girlfriend has been nagging me to get a new wallet anyway.

    The guy at the till told me thanks cause he was meant to do it too for himself but forgot lol. Took a while to get sorted as he had to get some code and had to ring a couple of other stores to get it!

    Just thought I resurrect this thread, after looking these recent screenshots, and with some recent news from Gamescom. I'm definitely getting it when it comes out. And looking at the shots, the "replay" ones look amazing. However some of the ingame shots (#43 especially), to me anyway, don't look anything special.

    How the game plays is more important of course, and maybe it will look a better in motion. The new management mode sounds interesting also. But it just doesn't seem that much of a step up graphically from Forza 3, considering all the time and money they've spent on it.

    The most important thing for me is the A.I. and whether they race or just play follow the leader.

    Video of the Kart racing here....not very impressive

    Gran Turismo has always been about the AI being religiously devouted to the driving line. It's always been billed as a driving simulator, no racing ever goes on.

    im sure if you did like arcade mode on "easy" you'd get that kind of attitude from the AI but if there is an option for expert or advanced you'd probably get some serious race's from the AI.

    At the same time though on this game im gonna get a good few cars.... ok maybe lots but then i'll probably spend most of my time online with gt5 and when im not online im getting the cash for a new car.

    also, November 3rd for us people.... im hoping the shops will have it like a week early so i can get a early go at it :P

    A friend of mine has the Logitech Driving Force GT & I've used it playing GT5 prologue, you can get it for around €100 in most places which stock it but probably less online. I'm going to get one myself but going to search online to see if I can get it cheaper as its the best wheel I've ever used. It makes the cars handling much easier as it feels close to driving a real car. Logitech have another wheel, the GT25/27 & its supposed to be amazing but its over €250.
