Early on I thought I wouldn't do irreversible mods to some of my Chromeline cars, but then I thought, what the hell, I rarely drive them anyway and when GT6 comes out it won't matter anyway. Point is, I don't treat the "special" cars any differently than the ones I can buy.

with DLC touring cars, for instance, people set up races with them and if the race specs are "don't full mod this and detune the crap out of it" then if you don't have two of the TC's, you're screwed.  That's the only reason I haven't added staged upgrades to my TC's yet.

I hope we will be able to get them from the dealership.

I look at it this way............ I mod the cars out completely.  If somebody wants to de-tune them to stock, well then, that's their prerogative.  If there are enough people in the race that wll merit me de-tuning tyhe car - o.k.   But if it causes issues because I just lowered the horsepower, then forget it....I'll do a pick-up race somewhere else.  There's ALWAYS an alternative.  ;)  Like J.G. Wentworth says, "It's MY car and I'll do what I want with it!".    :laugh

c/p from GTplanet

Major Changes and New Features v2.02

Wheels can now be changed on Standard cars.
Downloadable contents can now be shared by multiple users with the Family Upgrade.
(See Polyphony’s complete FAQ for more details.)
Cars purchased through DLC will now appear in the Car Dealerships. You can purchase additional versions of the same vehicles within the game using earned race credits.
A copy button has been added to the lower left of the settings screen. A settings sheet saved in either A/B/C can now be copied to A, B or C.
Gifts

Toyota 86 GT ’12 will be available to all players who install the 2.02 update.
Free coupons have been added that allow you to wash cars, change oil, overhaul your engine, or restore chassis rigidity in GT Auto. 10 coupons will be distributed for free to each of those who have downloaded the 2.02 update.
The Gran Turismo Racing Kart 125 SPL. and five New Car Refresh cards will be provided to customers purchasing any DLC packs released in October 2011. The New Car Refresh can be used from the Special Coupons option in the items list, and will return your car to its brand new condition (before breaking-in the car’s engine). Equipped parts and current paint on the car will not be affected by this card.
Other Improvements

Pressing the □ button in the car coupon selection screen of the Car Delivery, will now allow you to exchange all car coupons at once (maximum number of coupons you can receive at once is 100).
Tire-wear speed adjustment
In GT Auto you can now see how the oil changes, aerodynamic parts, engine overhauls, and racing modifications will affect performance points and engine power, before and after their application.
In screens where the [Garage] and [Driver List] buttons are displayed in the A/B Spec events, Special Events, and Seasonal Events, pressing the □ button will now show the [Garage], and pressing the △ button will show the drivers list.
An option has now been added for ‘Max. number of participants – this is featured in the room settings of My Lounge.
Added ☆ marks which show the number of Gold Trophies attained in each event, in the event selection screen of seasonal events.
Racing sound effect adjustment
Steering assist controls (used when using certain controllers on Racing Karts) have been adjusted. This applies to steering wheels with a 200 degree turning radius. The [Steering Type] (Amateur/Professional) settings in the Game Options will be ignored, and the controller’s steering angle will now directly affect the tire turning angle of the car.
Correction of Known Issues

Fixed issue where you would overrun without resetting, when entering pit lane at low speed on some tracks.
Fixed issue with Performance Points calculations for the Red Bull X2010 and the X2011.
Fixed issue where the rear wing/aerodynamic settings were reset when switching between setting sheets.
An issue was corrected where the car would become stuck in autopilot from the pit lane if a certain condition is met in an endurance race on the Tsukuba Circuit. Also revised the entry route during pit stops and speed judgement.
Improved multi-monitor stability

Ironically, the standard car I was in when I finished the upgrade (Spyker C8 Laviolette) would not let me change the wheels...    :(

2.02 update fixed a minor annoyance that the last update added. The cursor on the GT Life screen will once again go directly to GT Auto, instead of Practice. Thanks PD, and I'm being serious.  :)

In race sounds are noticeably different, and better.  ;)

I haven't had much time to see what was changed, but PD must be proud of that Happy Holidays card. Pressing o doesn't make it go away. I had to hit every button twice to close it.  ???

I bought a car last night and bolted on some parts and it's nice that you can see what an oil change will do for your HP and PP's. It also works when you add a wing or anything else I would think.

Good job PD

found me a hidden element in the 2.02 update. 2x photos render is a third of the time it took before the update.
