Of all the things that they could have half-assed...

Why half ass the tuning shop? 90% of the crap you can buy says "sports". Why don't they have "racing" or "semi-racing" options available too? Why can't you do engine swaps, or drivetrain swaps? In Forza you could take almost any car and turn it into a full blown racing machine. I remember doing do with a 350z, I turned it from an ordinary street car into a S class monster that could compete with the best cars in the game. In this game you just can't do that, and you would be very lucky to get more then 100-150 horsepower out of any car even after buying ALL upgrades available. I just don't get it.

If you want a racecar, why not buy a racecar that was meant to be a racecar?

That sure makes sense, eh? DO that kid! +1

Tuning in GT5 is pretty crap compared to GT4, just like 90% of the game.

 

[Zondaholic]

WHAT?! You can't get 1000 horsepower out of an integra any more?!

THE GODS WILL DESTROY KAZUNORI FOR THIS OUTRAGE.

Come on people. I know we all want to beat the dead horse even more senseless than it already is, but we already kknow PD purposely dropped the ball this time around. THey had the time and resources and they didn't take advantage of any of it.

Cuz many of the race cars in the game are crap and/or super slow... to name a few:

XJ220 LM: Slow...
GT by Citroen LM: Awesome looking, but turtle-like car...
Nascars: The ugliest race cars ever to exit...
Super GT cars: Extremely good looking, but slow...
Nomad Diablo: Good, yet ugly looking car...
Sauber Merc & GT-One: Great cars... but they sound like f:censored: blenders...
R390 GT1: No comment... I hate it...

Shall I continue???

"They had the time and resources and they didn't take advantage of any of it."

Shall I continue to make useless points that don't relate to what I said in the first place?

Fixed that for you.

Just in case you didn't understand what I fixed, here we go

You said:

The one I've crossed out, you said are 'ugly', not slow.
Didn't know that ugliness changes the speed of a car

Yes please because clearly YOUR opinions are the only ones that are right.

But I do agree with you on the tuning part, there really should be more options. Hell I'm pretty sure that there are more tuning options in Forza 3 then there have been in all GT games combined.
