Maxima in Gran Turismo 4...

I dont know if anyone has mentioned this before but i see an 04 in the car list for this game... List may not be totally real but in the one i saw it had a maxima... so there could be a game with a maxima in it!

I read in a previous post, that this list wasn't entirely accurate - and was, in fact, slightly bogus.

95% of the lists that you will find on the internet are WISH LISTS!! People right now aren't sure if the Gillet Vertigo is even in. And don't even expect Infiniti in. If you want a more realistic list go to GTplanet.net

Oh ya

there is no need for it to be there. even if there was, the only thing it would possibly beat on is accords and civics. boooring! i hate using fwd for racing (my driving style uses oversteer to help with steering).

I think they really dropped the ball on the amount of cars in GT3. In GT2, it had almost every car imaginable. (ESCUDO PIKES PEAK BABY!!!). There were so few in GT3, I was dissapointed. Part of the fun of GT2 was you could race the actual car you owned, not $80k+ exotics. You could have a PT cruiser race if you wanted (why, I don't know).

I hope they have a more complete line up for GT4

Was the Escudo the only the only car in that game that was able to go airborne under its own acceleration?? I havent played it in while but can sort of recall reaching ~240mph before it started to do an impression of an F15 Eagle taking off on full afterburners only to slam back down onto the track. That thing was a monster.

escudo is available in GT3, all the way up to ~1800hp, but IIRC it used to handle MUCH better in GT2

i just got into the game, however I dunno how to advance any further.... I only win a few thousand at a time. Why can't I choose the type of tranny I want when buying cars in GT3?

Yeah...surprisingly enough, I leave mine in auto a lot of the time. Every now and then I'll put it in manual for the fun of it, but if I'm seriously racing it's usually in auto. I never did beat the game though...finished rally, beginner, about 2/3 of the intermediate, and maybe 1/3 of whatever's above that. Also finished a couple endurance races, but not many. Still keep a garage of like 150+ cars though It's nice to have variety.....some days I feel like ripping it up with an 1110 HP Viper.....and others I like the really smooth handling of the Impreza Rally Car (Prototype).

I work parttime at EB Games, and Gran Turismo 4 is due out December 15th. Now, this is not the COMPLETE game. This version will NOT have online capabilities and will NOT have the complete car list. This is just a version that the company is putting out just to make some money for Christmas. Unfortunately, if you want the fully finished product (there will be even more features on this one, with the complete car list) you will have to wait until, at least, early next year. We don't have an exact date, but as of right now, we're prob looking at late winter, early spring. But who knows how far they'll push that back.
