Nice video report about the cars there Marcus and really liked the footage from inside the game itself. I've been reading/watching a few of your other reviews on things in the game. Very curious about all the cruises and JDM car meets you have with the game. It was funny for me to watch , as my main "hobby" is involved with a car club , where I go to shows and big car meets. I often go to medium sized JDM meets here in the UK ( around 100-110 cars ) and see all the cars that are in your cruse videos.

I've just spent the last hour or so driving the BRZ and the Honda and I honestly thought they were both enjoyable drive. I uprated the engins to stage 3 tuning and with the Honda I put the bigger turbo on ( the BRZ can't use the turbo's or supercharger ) and found the cars to be very preictable in their handling and the back steps out just perfectly when on the slower , tighter bends/corners of a track.

With the update changing the way cars behave , I tested how realistic it is , so I got out my Impreza WRX STi Type-R , set the car to be as close as possible to my real life Impreza P1 ( The P1 is the UK version of the Type-R ) and was impressed how close the over all feel of the car had ( I used Sports Soft ). I think PD have made a step in the right direction with this latest patch.

No buddy , I've just been watching a few of the videos you made and uploaded. I've never done a "cruise" or meet with my GT5. In real life I go to a lot of meets and shows , so I was naturally interested with your cruise/meet clips. Looks like it's a nice alternative to racing and when everyone shares the same interests you don't get idiots coming along.

Some of the cars you guys had were really impressive. Not a fan of the whole Hellaflush thing , but one car I remember seeing in one of your Youtube clips had been setup to look like it , which I was really impressed with. I'm lucky that the Type-R and 22B Imprezas look almost identical to my P1 Impreza and the wheels Prodrive made orginally for the P1 are actually in the game , in the proper colours too.

Thanks a lot dude :) She's my baby and has the performance to back up the looks , just like the new Honda does! :D

I love the fact that the 3 cars we have are all top of their range sports models. My P1 was the top spec Impreza , our small city car is a 2005 Fiesta ST and in our garage next to my P1 is a 2004 BMW M3 soft top!

We only have 1 car:/
 
V-TEC ftw
:lol:

My P1 has a very naughty race spec engine that is rated for 500bhp :scared: Currently I'm only running it at 322bhp and 330 ft lbt as I'm using the standard injectors and turbo. The P1 has a very "small" turbo ( a VF25 ) to make the car more usuable for the British roads and to give the car some crazy aceleration. I've managed to get a recorded 0-60 mph time of 4 seconds flat.

Only draw back to owning and running my P1 is the cost involved. :grumpy: The car has to be serviced every 5000 miles and the car can use a crazy amount of 99RON petrol when I start to hoon it out and about on A and B roads near where I live.

Still better than having a rotary. Those things drink more than a college kid during the weekends
