It’s Berne alright: stick “Marktgasse 69, 3011 Berne, Switzerland” into Google Maps for the spot in the video. Berne’s tricky for driving, and I’m saying that as someone from London! Tram tracks, cobbles, high bridges over the river – can’t wait to race it. Nice to see an original and less obvious choice for a city track.

when i was in japan I was skipping through a magazine with some gt5 screenshots in it, one was a screenshot of a map. it was the map of the track used in “Best Motoring” for touge challenges. hopefully that will make it into the game because then you could compare your times to those of the guys in the dvd’s!

I too saw the list with the 10,000 car´s. But I strongly feel that´s a Hoax. Im a gearhead Brazilian, and one of those car´s they listed is a Brazilian car thar went in MANUAL production in the 60´s or around. Not a real classic, kind of a “behind the shed” manufacturer.
I have some diggin around for facts, and appears that only 1 of that model still around today, in the hands of a private collector.

I think its really hard for a Japanese company to have heard of a car that even the nationals dont know, let alone go searching for it to render and real specs or speak with the family owner of the abandoned brand for legal purposes.

Well, the game is surely taking his time, let´s hope that the others 9,999 car´s really make it into the game ;)

I can’t wait to have a crack at the Top Gear test track But I think the main feature that does it for me is damage. The attention to detail is incredible. I just hope its included on all cars. I think we will know if it is in next months issue of OPM if they actually get their hands on it

‘Q’ stands for a quarter of a year. 12 months / 4 quarters = 3 months. Now we are in the Q2 in most countries but this varies between cultures. Q1 2010 would basically mean January-March of 2010. Hope I helped.

@belifant and @mohamed: it is Bern. Going to be exciting to race through the narrow old town!

@Chip: Nobody forgot about them, but they only took place at night. The ability to race every track and watch the time of day turn to dusk and then to night is something completely new.
