Here’s a complete listing of all the new changes coming in GT5 2.02:

Users can now change wheels on Standard cars
The settings sheets will include a new ‘copy’ feature
In GT Auto, players will be able to see how the oil changes, aerodynamic parts, engine overhauls, and racing modifications will affect performance points and engine power, before and after their application
Free coupons have been added that allow you to wash cars, change oil, overhaul your engine, or refresh the car body in GT Auto (10 coupons will be distributed for free to each of those who have downloaded the 2.02 update)
Pressing the Square button in the car coupon selection screen of the Car Delivery will now allow you to exchange all car coupons at once, rather than doing one at a time
In screens where the [Garage] and [Driver List] buttons are displayed in the A/B Spec events, Special Events, and Seasonal Events, pressing the Square button will now show the [Garage], and pressing the Triangle button will bring up the drivers list
In My Lounge, the room settings will feature a new ‘Max. number of participants’ setting
In the event selection screen of seasonal events, there are now ☆(star) marks that show the number of Gold Trophies attained in each event
Improved racing sound effects
Elements of the steering assist controls (used when using certain controllers on Racing Karts) have been tweaked.

These new cars will also be available as DLC for $3.99:

2011 Mini Cooper S
2010 Volkswagen Golf VI R
2010 Volkswagen Scirocco R
2012 Nissan GT-R Black edition R35.

The blog post also confirms the Toyota 86 will be available for free in the 2.02 update, and the previous batch of DLC will now be available on all the user accounts of a PlayStation 3 console (they can be purchased from their respective dealers within the game).

Finally, anyone who purchased the first batch of DLC will receive a free “Gran Turismo Racing Kart 125 SP” along with five free “New Car Refresh” cards that reset any car in the game back to as-new condition, without losing any modifications that have been performed to it.

I'm really looking forward to this improvement:
Improved racing sound effects

I've recently began to use a surround sound system, which makes for such a great GT5 experience!
 
No point to the Mini or the GT-R at all. :rolleyes: But the Golf VI R is lovely (I even tried to recreate one recently on my Golf V GTI :lol:) and the Scirocco R is OK. And looks like we are getting the Japanese model after all for the 86.

Now, please, PD, update your Super GT roster.

Wonder what this means...


All this looks very good to me 👍

Yeah, 2011 ones would be nice, or we could wait (like real GT fans, we're used to it :P) and get the 2012 ones. I want the HSV-010.
 
Loving the Golf and Scirocco. :D I was expecting the GT86 anyway but to get it for free is great. I was expecting the BRZ and FR-S too though, maybe they'll be in another DLC pack.

And last but not least, standards finally get aftermarket wheels. :D
 
I told a lot of times about The Scirocco... Kaz said they had it almost ready but not in time for GT5 release. There it is.
 
If those 4 cars are the only DLC then that's disappointing but otherwise that's good.
 
I was hoping for some track's, but it's all good! 👍

^^cool.
 
So let's see, Scirocco, GT86, and custom wheels on standards, Plus the hopeful reinstatement of bloom/lens flare in photomode, and who knows what else is included.
Safe to say GT5's gonna be taking up alot of people's time again :D
 
your right dlc is bad but update and free car are reallly good PD WE NEED MORE TRACKS. I would love more 2012 cars to if you can do it. And if you have nascar liscense can you make older types of nascars
 
"Improved racing sound effects"

Will be amazing if they managed to get rid of generic sounds and make better use of the car sounds they recorded.
