3/11/14 - The thread is now open for discussion, but feel free to continue to post undocumented changes as you find them. Please read the list below to see if your change has already been recorded.
Original Post
Every update brings undocumented changes to the game. Please post any undocumented changes you find in the game and I'll update the OP regularly to reflect any changes found. Please also make a concerted effort to verify these changes and not just report unconfirmed rumours. Be as specific and detailed as you can with the information as poorly worded or cryptic posts will probably get passed over.
This IS NOT a discussion thread about the pros and cons of the update. Confine those to the appropriate thread please.
New bugs, glitches, errors etc. should probably be recorded here:GT6 :Glitches and Errors thread (Read first Post)

Undocumented Changes
- Special Color M4 in the BMW dealership (Frozen Black Metallic) EDIT: BMW M4 Coupé Frozen Black Metallic coloured model has been removed with Ninja update.
- When watching replays of online races, or when watching live online races names can be removed above cars online and off. If you turn off names for spectating, they will remain off while racing. This feature does not carry over from lobby to lobby, it must be reset for each lobby entered.
- In the Car Settings menu, to the right of Tuning Sheet C, there is a button for a regulations check for your individual car.
- Tune sheets can be copied to one another but no reset button for settings yet
- The best score in a drift lobby it shows up in purple in the chat box.
- In online lobbies, when exiting the room settings menu using the O button, if no changes have been made, then you are taken straight back to the lobby, instead of having to confirm that you want to make no changes etc.
- Possible further refinement to motion blur, the warped screen edge is reduced.
- Formula GT's cockpit view has HUD speedometer and rev dials, the one from the 'Normal View'
- In Race Photo Mode: No changes to your settings of F-number and Exposure when you were in the Camera Menu.
- Qualifying time minimum now 5 minutes
- Some standards may have been improved. Possible list HERE
- Fixed the split time bug when in practice mode online. However now you can only see your best time in the top right hand corner and not that of the entire lobby however the split times are still against the best lap in the room. Also your times get erased completely each time you exit the track and the split times will change to being set against the best lap from those still on the track.
- Bumper cam style gauges with interior view on simplified interior cars instead of chase cam style gauges
- Seems that the "possibility of change wheather" (the one with 0-60 values) now effects the humidity of the track instead of changes of the wheather...
With 80% humidity at start and 0% wheather and possibility of change at 50, the track surface reaches from 80% to 0% in about... 10 seconds... - Top speed no longer artificially limited offroad, but TC remains in effect
- If you hold the "X" button while hovering over an open lobby, it reveals the individual room regulations.
- Problem with High RPM Turbo on HSV '10 Anniversary Edition documented HERE seems to be fixed
- In Photomode, entering the Camera Menu no longer resets the EV setting to zero.
- Changes to Photomode HERE and HERE and HERE
- If you set car restrictions to be filtered by Make but then just select a country you can leave it at that. Cars can then be chosen from any of that country's makes.
- Online Automatic race start time is now "about XX:XX" instead of "at XX:XX"
- When you enter a race, the blue button now says "Sign-Up."
- Custom soundtracks feature has been fixed. As before it would rarely play my own custom soundtrack and instead play GT6's soundtrack. It now plays mine from when I start playing GT6 (in the menus and on track).
- Pre-warmed tires in online, more grip as you leave the pits. vs. 1.04
- Changing exhausts no longer changes gear ratios in transmission.
- Possible change in weather variability
- Fixed the paint glitch of the Renault Megane Race Car. The black original parts remains black after the painting.
