I'd like to see Noble cars in the game. I don't even own an PSII but I think for this game I'm gonna go buy a used for just for it along with the logitech steering wheel. Now I just need a good seat..... Anyone got an old NSX seat lying around???

I have one - you could pick it up for free - too bad you're not in Germany, shipping to U.S. would be more expensive than the seat.

Just remember that this list from TGS2004 features just under 300 cars. E3's build included a similar list of nearly 300 cars (many cars appear on both lists). Polyphony Digital has not come close to revealing all of the cars being included in the game...remember, they're saying to expect MORE THAN 650!!!!

I still haven't received my $50 preorder...I hope they honor it!
Here are some more screens including NSXs from the latest batch:
Man, that last pic is SICK!!! Makes a great wallpaper!! 
Love that pics too - especialy the 2nd last: Image this Mobil 1 car in real in your rear view mirror of your NSX on the racetrack - I had that experience this spring in Spa and felt like I was already part of GT 4.

what's GT4 steering wheel? I was looking at Logitec driving force pro steering wheel but it's a bit pricey....which steering wheel do you guy recomend?
Logitec gave me one of their driving force pro steering wheels two weeks ago at our companies vendor show in Vegas (Game Crazy) -- same unit Sony uses on the GT4 interactives at E3, and at our vendor show. This unit rocks! Now I need to build one of those racing seat interactives.

The Logitech Driving Force Pro was specifically designed with GT4 in mind...the only wheel that offers 900 degrees rotation in each direction. It features excellent force feedback too!
It works with other games too, but this wheel has got GT4 written all over it (well, actually, the GT logo graces the center of it). I've played GT4 with this wheel at two E3s and it totally rocks.
Yes it is expensive (MSRP $149.99), but I imagine there will be great deals on it as Christmas and GT4's release date nears. I think it was a glitch that Best Buy had it for $49.99...I just hope they honor this price!
Randy, your December calendar should use screen grabs from GT4!
I'm curious, does this wheel actually pull itself back to center much like your real steering wheel does when you are driving around a corner? I can imagine the force feedback as giving resistance as you turn into corners but does that also equate to pulling back to center as you exit a corner. Am I making sense in what I'm trying to describe here??? 
I wish this game was on PC where you could actually run Hi-res graphics. It would rule.

I don't have the wheel yet, but from what I remember of my experience is that the force feedback and the true range of motion makes the whole experience feel very natural...which is not a sensation I've gotten from previous wheel controllers on consoles or even PCs. The force feedback also translates the "feel" of the driving surface extremely well (in rally races, the transition from gravel / dirt surfaces to pavement is particularly interesting since you can actually feel when the wheels grab).
On the downside, using this wheel on rally courses (like their stunning Grand Canyon course) can be very exhausting!

My Momo Force does this, so I assume this one will have similar bells and whistles.
Doesn't GT4 offer a hi-rez mode, or output in 16x9 mode, possibly HD? Does anyone know the highest rez that is supported, if I was looking to build a high-end gaming console around GT4?NetViper said:

GT4 does offer a 640x480 16x9 mode for widescreen TVs, but I haven't seen anything suggesting that it can output progressive scan. GT4 Prologue didn't support it...and I recall that Polyphony Digital said that they weren't going to be supporting progressive scan. Oh well...I don't have a progressive scan TV anyway.
GT3 allowed you to link up three or six PS2s so you could play on three or six TVs...does that count?

I haven't played an i-link battle of GT3 for more than a year! I'm itching to get multiplayer going with GT4...fortunately they will be including LAN support!
