Ive been running my Academy 370Z 2008 in blue for the last week online, Yoy wouldn't believe how many people fell for it thinking i had the prize car early LOL

I've been at it for well over a month mate, great fun making up reasons as to how I was given it early haha, did the same for the GT-R Academy special lol
 
I am jealous now, should have downloaded the academy. Do we know if the prize cars will be available to those that do not have them at a later date?
 
To those unfortunate not to have golded or entered the 8th round you can still have the academy 370Z.
~snip~
Do you still get the car even though you didn't medal an event or two? I didn't have the time to medal the last two events in the last round.

You only get cars for golding all events in a round.
 
I have a question, would you still receive the gta leaf if you haven't got the dlc car pack that the standard leaf originally came with?

Yes... as long as you golded all the events in round 1

Yes, you will still recieve the GTA Leaf if you golded that round as it is a prize car from GTA and has nothing to do with the DLC.

You can still do it. I fully golded round 7 a few days ago. Of course, your rankings do not change. Just hit X when you get the message of doom.
 
Damn I feel a bit ripped off now as I only paid for that car pack for the leaf, I could/should have just waited and got it for free now.

I only did :

1-1 Gold
1-2 Silver
1-3 Bronze

There's a chance ? :p


None im afraid, You have to gold all events if you dont you will only receive the suit.

Yes you can still do the academy BUT your times will not be logged or recorded. If you didnt gold before the closure date then you will not receive the prizes even if you gold after it was closed.
 
Just the Leaf for now, that's a bit odd. I got mine on both US and Colombian PSN and there are already rooms of people racing only the Leaf.
 
I hope they release the cars/gear daliy and not weekly or bi-weekly or monthly since they will be invalid after january 25th if you haven't redeemed them from your gift box

Thank you for your reply. I'll still be happy with 7 free cars :).

Ummmm, wanna bet? There were 2 events that I had silver and are now gold. I did them a few days ago. I got the same message stating I would get the prize cars. The trophy even changed color from silver to gold..

From what i understand, we have until March 2013.

But that pack also had the LOVELY Aventador.

Also, do you guys think it's safe to delete GT Academy, along with the save file, from my HDD? ? I have plently of room it, but I just feel like it's still a waste to keep it, but I'm not sure if the save ties in with getting the cars or not.
 
Why everyone is so worried about cars?
I bet you get them before end of 2013..

Try it on a secondary account or your GTP account.

That could be good news for those that have not entered, I know for sure your times will not be uploaded as we have passed the closure date but good if you can still gold. Does this mean those that havent golded will still get there cars if they gold them now ??
 
I won all golds with my main account, but my secondary account is what I use for collecting.
I won gold on the 1st two rounds on Sunday.
I just tried to continue, can do it, get a message telling me it's closed :grumpy:
 
Tried to get all golds on my other account, in main menu of GTA, it says the GTA is closed and prompted to use the PS button to exit the game :( guess it's too late to get the gold or prize cars. Maybe it's safe to delete it now ?
 
To those unfortunate not to have golded or entered the 8th round you can still have the academy 370Z.
I understand its the same academy car as the 2008 except its colour, Now we do get a paint chip with the new cars so just trade for the chip and paint your old 2008 370Z academy.

This photo is NOT the new prize but an example in the new colours. Painted of the chip that comes with the academy leaf car.

The stickers will be different on the "new" Academy prize cars... they say 2012 on them, so anyone paying a little bit of attention will know you're faking. :sly:

Yup, and I just checked both accounts.
Main account has the Leaf, second does not.

You can no longer play the Academy. It closed a few days ago while I was on the track. The server is down plus you get a message that it no longer can be played. Just tried it for verifacation.
