Interesting, these pics don’t seem to be as polished up as the previous ones released. With that said these could in fact be “in-game” shots. Looks more like a replay of a race. The graphics are still amazing, i’ve said it before but i believe Gt5 will make gt5:prologue look old.
I just checked the Dodge website and the Viper ACR is not available in any color that slightly resembles the purple shown above, that paint looks very much like a custom candy paint…is this a hint? :)
ya but the viper acr is not available in purple…so the purple paint could hint that you can change your car color after obtaining it from the dealership in one of its available colors from the dealership
parts customisation is the main customisation i care about. Livery is OK but not essential. I Hope there are a lot of different body parts for each cars.
the link that you posted doesn’t prove that the car is available in purple in real life…you showed me a purple ACR in the game, I would like to see a purple ACR in real life. If you check the Dodge Website (http://www.dodge.com/hostc/bmo/colors.do) the ACR is not available in purple, hence the reason I concluded that maybe GT5 will offer the ability to paint your car any color after purchasing it from the dealership.
@ Sam
Yeah, but still, I guess the helmets are customisable.. Or they just change with the colour of the car. ‘Cause the helmets there have the same colours as the cars.
The forum has numerous posts that state that there were violet or purple ACR’s produced, 9 to be exact, they were a previous years model apparently and therefore are not in the current official color options. Given that there are only 9 its most likely going to be hard to track a photo down of one. Its probable that PD used a color scheme from the past and added it to the color options. I would still like to see a livery editor however, would be cool as long as it had limits so people don’t over do it.
We will probably have customizable drivers. But these screen shots don’t support that. Although the Ferrari California Debut and the Toyota FT 86 video do. Both videos show to different people (without helmets) driving.
it’s almost like somebody’s holding a gun to PD’s head and forcing them to regularly release screens/vids these days. It’s not at all like them, though I can’t say that I mind.
Hmm the Viper which has the record lap time at Nürburgring thats interesting. I will be intersting in see a race between that Viper and the Corvette ZR1.

Truly gorgeous, as usual. The wait is unbearable, but it´s gonna be so worth the wait! :)
October 8th, 2009 at 12:49 pm
bella!
October 8th, 2009 at 12:59 pm
I see 2 different helmets in the picture with the Esprit.. custom drivers anyone?
October 8th, 2009 at 1:14 pm
quiet nice indeed
October 8th, 2009 at 1:17 pm
The picture of the purple-black-red stripe viper smells of livery editor to me. Those colors don’t even look good together… it looks very ‘custom’!
October 8th, 2009 at 1:36 pm
Is the blue car an old Ferrari? The tire seems to have a horse stamped…
October 8th, 2009 at 1:52 pm
the more i see new screens the more i am reminded of photomode…the angles and focus in many of the photos remind me of it alot…
October 8th, 2009 at 1:57 pm
@Magicalgin
The drivers helmets were different because the manufacturer was different. Like in Prologue.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:00 pm
Chrysler Hemi 300cc, way in the back in the first pic.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:09 pm
Tokyo again. Makes me think the game has a long way to go if they can only show cars on one track. March 2010? 2011 more like.

@ Sam_NY:
I’m pretty sure it’s an Audi R8.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:12 pm
That Lotus Esprit in the seventh pic doesn’t have so much chance :(
October 8th, 2009 at 2:15 pm
That Viper looks same as GT Concept from GT5P.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:18 pm
Is it normal for the Viper ACR to be purple in one of those pictures? Or is that custom paint 0_0. Sorry, I don’t know much about American muscles.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:22 pm
Hearing that Berlino Bear! We’re not seeing this for 18 months minimum and might aswell start getting used to it I’m afraid :(
October 8th, 2009 at 2:26 pm
At least it show’s PD is trying to shake off some of the secrecy on GT5 lol.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:29 pm
My favourite car model xD I luv that Lotus !!!
October 8th, 2009 at 2:43 pm
The viper, ACR! Oh man! I can not wait.. One of the faster cars in GT5 so far we’ve seen!
October 8th, 2009 at 2:55 pm
@Sam
But in the video of the toyota.. the driver didn’t even wear a helmet.. o.O
October 8th, 2009 at 3:07 pm
Man, I hate the look of the newer Vipers, but this one is sexy. I love the offset stripe. :D
October 8th, 2009 at 3:48 pm
well i love the photos but we still have like ………. a long long time to wait
History:
GT5P >> Japan (Dec07′) EU (March08′)
GT5 >> Japan (March10′) EU (may/june10′ ?!) hopefully not
i can’t wait for gt5 it’s been 4ever since gt4 came out and really got bored of the tracks in gt5p

Awesome.
October 8th, 2009 at 4:30 pm
The Option to change the car colours is a feature since GT 1. So the purple colour of the Viper is not really a new feature ;)
October 8th, 2009 at 5:09 pm
I hate to rain in your parade, but here is a purple ACR.

October 8th, 2009 at 6:32 pm
Lotus Vector V8 = Lotus Esprit V8? If so, why change the name?
October 8th, 2009 at 6:35 pm

Check out this forum http://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=121126&page=3
I think you will find that the ACR does come in purple even though i don’t see why, it looks horrible.
October 8th, 2009 at 7:59 pm
pics need to be BIGGER
October 8th, 2009 at 10:33 pm
@ Berlino Bear
they prob want 2 keep the surprise until the end, and dont want to reveal everything now… it would spoile the experience…. ;)
dont you want to say : oooohhhhh…. aaaahhhhh like the kids who opens their xmas presents…
I cant wait, and i dont want too much to be reveal, i trust The Man.

@Magicalgin
ya, but you were talking about the picture with the Lotus and the Citroen. don’t change subjects.

@eric
take a look at the link you sent me and this one:
http://www.netcarshow.com/dodge/2003-viper_competition_coupe/800×600/wallpaper_07.htm
The car in your picture is clearly a Dodge Viper Competition Coupe not an Dodge Viper ACR. Compare the front fascias.
