New Gran Turismo 5 DLC: Twin Ring Motegi, Scion FR-S [UPDATE]
The official Italian Gran Turismo website has just published (UPDATE: this content has since been removed) new details about Gran Turismo 5‘s upcoming downloadable content.
As expected, Twin Ring Motegi will be coming to the game, including four different configurations: the Road Course, Super Speedway, East Course, and West Course. It will be available at a price of €5.00 (prices in other regions have not yet been confirmed).
The Scion FR-S, a variant on the Toyota 86, will also become available in the game at no cost. Stay tuned for more official information regarding release dates and international pricing soon. Thanks to all of you who sent this in so quickly!

I have to agree that we should get more stuff for free. This is my logic on why I say this. If Kaz had taken the two more years to make this game like he wanted it, it would’ve cost the same amount. So through a series of updates why doesn’t he go ahead and finish it out and make it like he wanted. We have the technology to do that today. By November 24, 2012 this game should be completely finished.

I don’t get your logic. Let us say we buy the “two more years” you suggest then how exactly would come to the same costs?
I think we can all agree that Kaz and all the other people doing the work is to get payed plus there is also money spent on offices, computers and so on. Two years extra development would have meant more money spent on developing the game.

the Scion FR-S handles much better than any of the 86′s!

Scion FR-S and Twin Ring Motegi now confirmed by the US PS Blog. http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/06/26/gt5-toyota-fr-s-and-twin-ring-motegi-dlc/#utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+PSBlog+%28PlayStation.
Seriously, TOYOTA FR-S? :P Well Toyota owns Scion anyway……….
It’s a bit disappointing that PD only released two contents, and the car is a just a rebadged version of the 86…….Cause I was hoping they’d add more following the removal of the post before in the GT website

Who thinks gt5 needs engine swaps, real car parts, decals, REALISTIC HP Figures and Realistic mods like single turbo conversion!

All that i ask from PD is to allow us to take spoilers off cars we want, and put wider tires on are cars. nothing major oh, and stop putting every 86 in this game we only need one. lListen to the people and not yourselves, you would be better off letting the fans decide. :-)

“you would be better off letting the fans decide.”
If they let their fans decide every decision, PD would’ve been bankrupt by now.

I raced on twin ring for gt academy and i got yo say its Extremely ugly. The tress are horribleblooking and the rest just good enough. So if it doesnt have cars with it i aint buyin. The superspeedway is very tempting though very.
Also to the idiots asking for standard cars as premium wait for gt6! its already been said most/maybe all standard cars will be premiums. So yes it makes total sense to ask them to turn gt5 into gt6 through dlc… -

One thing im not clear on is approval/licensing legalities for the Racing Governing Bodies, Race Teams run by Manufacturers vs Privateer, and Design of Race cars And Respective classes PD would have to work with.

Went to Toyota over the weekend to check out the FRS in person. I wasn’t sold on it. I like the fact it is FR..however 200hp and 6-speed is all good. It is strictly 2 seater although there are 2 seats in the back that probably fit your gym bag better then a person.
However, the car, although from the engine looks…the car itself looks kind of cheap. The exterior of the car is nice design but I feel personally its missing few things. I cant explain..You should check one out in person. However I think it will drive good due to Toyota/Subaru collaborating on it.
Hoping for a 2015 Supra soon. Toyota confirmed they are in research of one. Not in process yet.

So stupid…

I think they should make the most driven standard cars into premiums…its an easy way to find what consumers are most interested in… random idea =)

Thats a great idea!!!

Forget the Scion. Give us a premium Supra RZ !!!

June 25th, 2012 at 1:52 am - #superstreet556
Maybe PD will also add the new Scion tC in the new Scion dealership!
-
June 25th, 2012 at 12:58 pm - #GRAFX21
They should of added the 2006 Scion TC. Its an FF that can easily boost to 400hp. I wish they did put that car in the game. It is a 2 door coupe and was a very successful drift car, race car, and very successful selling car. I still have mine and it never did me wrong..all it needs is an oil change. Why PD/Sony/GT5 didnt put the Scion TC in the game blows me away. Put the damn 2006 TC and new TC in the game. It a popular car…made by Toyota with a Camry engine…Its not a KIA! come on GT5…put it in!

Don’t forget about the 2008 Scion xB, 2008 Scion xD and the latest Scion iQ 2012.

I wish they would put all the scions in the game. Especially the 2008 scion xB. I have a 09 xB & would love to race one in a game.

I can’t wait for the speedway! Finally a non-pack racing oval. The racing will be awesome online, even better in leagues!

What I don’t understand is that there is no premium scion dealership. Could this mean a free premium scion pack?
-
June 24th, 2012 at 5:26 pm - #Amac500
All it means is that they are adding a Scion to the game and it is the premium Scion FR-S. They are just going to add a Scion tab to the dealership for it, nothing special. Haha, what would you even put in a Scion pack and who would want to pay for a Scion?
-
June 24th, 2012 at 5:53 pm - #hobanator24
Well they could make the 2 Scions in the game premium.

Scion pack? Oh no I guessed I’d buy it.

All i need is e30 m3 in any variation
-
June 24th, 2012 at 4:41 pm - #A_Higher_Place
All I need is a modern GT1 Aston Martin racing car. But it won’t happen.
-
June 24th, 2012 at 5:33 pm - #Amac500
I’d be cool with it. And when they add premium cars like that they should make them race modifies. Cars like the M3 need to be race moded, the Corvette is the only race mod car that is an actual legit car actually worth it to do, the Camero is pretty good, and the NSX is old and you can’t put it on level with the rest. Race mod my BMW M3, an Aston Martin, a 458, my GT40, a Mercedes Benz SLS, an Audi R8. Just a few of those is all they got to do and it would be good. Btw, my classification of an actual GT race mod is being able to get it to 550 HP, that seems like a fair measure like in real life. But yeah, add the BMW and give it a race mod!
-
June 24th, 2012 at 5:42 pm - #TheCrazySwede
Aye, I agree. I would love to have an E30 M3 or be able to race mod an M car. And to Amac500, the GT40 is already a race car, so how would you race mod it? Are you talking about the Ford GT, because that already has a race car version in the game, and it’s premium, too.
-
June 24th, 2012 at 6:33 pm - #e30 freek
E30 rocks

June 24th, 2012 at 7:27 pm - #TomBrady
Agreed.
They wouldn’t even have to pay for the GT1 licensing, all they’d have to do is give us more race mods, and make the race mod be exactly like the GT1 cars. They could do the DB9, Gallardo, Murc, SLS, 458, Scuderia, GT-R, 8C, Maserati, Evora, etc. Not to mention all the cars that used to be GT1.
That would be a really easy way for them to give us that racing series. As long as they modelled them directly after GT1 cars, got as much data, and info as possible, it wouldn’t matter to me if it was officially licensed or not.
netKar PRO has cars like that, they’re based directly off real cars, handle identically, but have different names. It’s easy and cheap to do.
But of course, PD is too busy wasting time with their heads up their a$$3$ making standalone games for a competition that got along just fine when it was just a seasonal. Not to mention, making us wait 6 months only to get one track and a car that was finished at least 7 months ago.
I love GT5 but I hate PD, they’re such imbeciles. I mean thanks for the great sim, but seriously they gotta stop making so many stupid and terrible decisions, and they gotta stop being biased

I agree with all RM car choices, except Scuderia 430 only because Ferrari, I believe has a no RM stipulation on the Street skins.

Premium bugatti that’s all I want

It wasnt entirely PDs fault it was mostly down to sony for forcing them to release otherwise we could have had the couple of cars that wernt in gt4 but are are standard like the veyron and the jag those r8s
