In the first picture it says: The "Super Taikyu Endurance Series" was changed to "Super Taikyu Endurance Series". Looks the same to me, think it's an error. đź’ˇ

In the next picture: The car is the Corvette Convertible (c1) but the description is about the Chevrolet Silverado SST Concept. :sick:

there are several of these little mistakes in the descriptions. I don't remember any others off the top of my head, but I remember reading some typos and stuff before. Maybe PD's engrish translator took a few days off during production...

Old news this was found a long time ago.
 
Funny thing is, I'm reading the Corvette C1's description right now and it does describe the car now...since your pic was taken on the 18th though 2.01 could have fixed it.
 
The Citroen GT description is somewhat wrong as well. They give the impresion that they discribe the engined version as a what if car, and the electric as the real thing. When in fact the engined version is somewhat a real working test mule of some sort, and the electric version is just fantasy. Also, they discribe it as having a "large" V8, which matches with the sound heard on the real video of the car, but in fact the car in teh game sounds like the BMW M5, and it strangely has the same specs and transmission.
 
These were actually typed up by someone, so its natural that some errors creep in, it may also be the translation device.
 
Gran Turismo PSP has that same description mix-up for that same car. Did PD actually intend this for GT5 considering that they have still yet to fix it in both versions as of now? :confused:

Really? Good to know I'm not the only one who bought a 'broken' GT5 disc. :)

Okay, for this one, the first and the third Speed 6 are RM versions and the second one is a regular street car. If you don't believe me, I assume you can make it out just by viewing the thumbnail. For some reason the third RM Speed 6 doesn't show the letters 'RM' in its name. Any speculations? :dunce:

PS: The third RM Speed 6 was bought way back when I first got the game and the first RM Speed 6 was bought just two days ago.
 
I've heard the description of the Holden Commodore calls it an American car.

Which it kind of is, but it isn't sold here anyway. In an effort to boost profit margins, US manufactures have pursued a long-standing policy of giving the rest of the world better cars - result, Australia has the Holden Commodore while America has the Chevrolet Impala - or rather, a slow, floppy, catastrophically understeering waste of everything that goes into making them, which GM had the audacity to call an Impala.
 
Get Japanese version as possible :) (Original text may fewer error)

If only I understood Japanese, lol, jk :)

Sorry for the late reply, I checked this morning, the date is 24/11/2011 and it still gives the description of the Silverado. :scared:
