There's been a model change, too, so the XR8 race car looks a lot better, IMO.


This is ex British Formula Ford champ Russell Ingall at the Australian Grand Prix.

Cool car! đź‘Ť Flashy paint job too. I would like to see more of those in GT4. It looks like something I would use a lot of.
 
Yeah, but it's hard to get a clear picture of Skaife's car, it's always behind Ambrose's ;)
 
:lol: True...except for two weeks or so ago...;) Ambrose's paint job on his car looks much better than Russell's. That's what I think.
 
Err get that crappy ford out of here, we wanna see Skaife's Holden! Nah Aussies Fords aren't that bad, but I am a Holden man:)

Here's a nice pic of Skaife's Car:

I've done a little looking around the internet for Holden cars and so far this would be my choice to be in a Gran Turismo game:

Only one was made and its in a museum near where I live. It was a concept car that was never mass produced.

Other concept cars that were never mass-produced yet were in Gran Turismo games:

The Monaro might be coming to the UK with a Vauxall badge on it, there was one at last years NEC motorshow with no badges on the Vauxhall stand to gauge public reaction.

I wasn't meaning it shouldn't be in the game I would love it if it was, I was just stating the info about it.

Wow, that's great news wonder what they will call it?
 
It will keep the Monaro name just have a Vauxhall badge on instead of a Holden one. HSV will be increasing it's sales in the UK as well with more cars being brought over next year than the last two years put together.

Hmmmm....I haven't heard of HSV before. What does the abbreviation HSV stand for? Here's a photo of an HSV Clubsport R8:

It stands for "Holden Special Vehicles", its a bit like Ralliart for Mitsubishi or TRD for Toyota but not quite the same.
 
BTW, that's not the current clubsport, the current one is ugly :)
 
That's an outdated link, no longer accessable from the main page.
the current page is all flash, so this is from a different site:
