It just says stay tuned. Maybe they mean that they will announce there will be no Grid 2 and they are just fooling us...
Of course I'm probably wrong and hope I am.
Though they do say "where Grid 2 stuff is going on".

I hope they use a new engine. The old one sued in DIRT and GRID whilst fun, was a little unrealistic. But if they keep the crazy damage system, that'll be good.

They will probably use the one they are using on this years F1 game (2012) and used on Dirt 3 (2011), F1 2011 (2011) and DiRT: Showdown (2012) the EGO 2.0
With the current consoles coming to the end of their life span I dont think it would pay off for them to develop a new engine TBH.

Maybe unrealistic, but a hell-of-a-lot more fun than GT5... I liked the arcade physics of Grid, even though it favored people not using a wheel, it was soo crazy.
I played Grid to the very end, I think. One day it was just - gone. And there was still a lot of online activity when they shut it down on the PS3. More than 21 days of online time spent on Grid... yikes, I remember that. Could even be more and I wasn't even in the top 1000 when it stopped, though i peaked at rank 91 at some time. Had a long break from it.

Grid was fun online, that is when you weren't plowed into the first corner. I wish that there was some way to prevent that, other than turning collisions off. See, the thing is, I don't mind a wreck if it was a legitimate accident, actually I love it, but when the people who suck start to troll that's not fun.

Dirt's engine mixed with NFS Shift. It's enjoyable, not amazing, but every time I think about it I get confused between it and Shift as they're very similar. I think it's Grid that has destruction derby style races and a sort of team management thing, Touge races and some pretty cool non-linear drift events, not unlike Dirt 3's gymkhana events except you only get points for drifting.

Great graphics, nice cars and tracks, cool career mode (besides running on your own you would eventually manage a team with you and a AI driver and gain sponsorships, costumize your cars with liverys)
IMO the best damage modeling in consoles to date... but the downside was the physics... even worst and more arcade than Shift. IMO worst than TDU2
But overall a very good game (won a Bafta that year)

I didn't mind the physics. Of course, I had never really played a similar or semi-sim game up to that point, so I knew no difference. But I still enjoy them. They gave the game a light mood. It was fun, like a game should be. And at least I could control the car in it, unlike Shift and Shift 2.

People can get a bit dillusional with regards to physics, not every game needs to be pinpojnt accurate and real.

Oh yeah, the HDR did go a bit overboard.
