Two things.  First, I like the test track thingy, and if you can drag race, it'll be way fun.  Second, regarding the crappy new cars that some of you don't want to get...can you imagine how good I'm going to look in the Aston?

Especially if the windows are tinted.

Then you'll miss what's happening in my car on Salma Hayek bobble-head night.

Some of you new guys won't know what the hell that means.

Pricing hasn't improved since the DLC train started IMO.  It's good they haven't abandoned it (it's race for games to be supported beyond one year), but the pricing at $1 per car is a shade higher than Forza charges and $4 for a made-up track doesn't strike me as a bargain.

Another track is a happy event for me, along with the premium XJR9.
@ Feldynn... the XJS would be great but 1990 was the facelift year... better before IMHO. If you want a real one I can hook you up with an 88 for a very reasonable price

I'll explain my dislike about this DLC, for information's sake. Now this doesn't stop anyone else from wanting this DLC, but I have no desire for it.

These first three, I simply have no interest in:
Nissan LEAF G 2011
Mini Mini Cooper S Countryman (R60) 2011
Volkswagen Volkswagen 1200 1966

Aston Martin V12 Vantage 2010 - I don't even drive the DB9 we already have, which is a great car, I don't need another Aston
Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 2011 - I have a Gallardo and 2 different Murcielagos I don't drive, and don't like much, I don't need the Aventador
Jaguar XJR-9 LM Racecar 1988 - if this is an upgrade to Premium, it is an insult

Here's the Route X video making the rounds, apparently playable at Tokyo Auto Salon.

東京オートサロン 2012 Gran Turismo 5 - Route X Demo Run

Somewhat inspired to pay $4 for that now.  Probably not inspired enough to actually go buy a PSN card.

I'm actually quite suprised by how detailed the track is. I Hope this new track has different layouts.

Anybody else having trouble loading replays lately?  I'd say 1 out of every 3 or 4 times I try to load a replay, the progress bar takes forever to fully load and then once it's full, it just hangs forever and I have to quit the game.  I thought it was perhaps because I had a shitload of replays saved so I went through and deleted a bunch of them.  It didn't help.

It's really :fucking annoying.

It's been happening to me too (I also thought it was 'cause I had a boatload)...

I've had a slightly less horrible rate of that since about 2.00, and not just replays.  About 1/10 track loads of any sort (lounge, seasonal or other event, replay) it just won't load the track and the game gets stuck.  If the progress bar makes it to 1/2way with no track just blackscreen I know I'm looking at a reboot.
