Random GT5 related Q&A

[Dhakaia]

I got a quick one for now

What is that black car in between the red Ford GT & the Ferrari P4... on the screensaver that comes on during the main menu screen? Everytime I just get mesmerized looking at the engine bay and the gorgeous V12 sitting in it! Of course I need to know what it is before I can start looking for one

Whoa, i definitely need to readjust my plasma's color settings... either that or get myself checked for color blindness ... but really appreciate the quick answer!!

Thought of one more of these random ones:

Is there any way to change the setting for A-Spec races, where it shows the cars in the race, instead of the names of the drivers? ... I've checked pretty much all the option settings, and didn't see anything. I'd like to see if it's the Sauber or R8 I am chasing, rather than the AI puppet driving it.

I dont think you can like 99% sure, and ya I think the only colour it comes in is a dark dark green from the dealer. ( I think)

yep, it's premium dark green jaguar Xj13 race car '66 from the dealership
other color it's chrome i think, it's from the chrome line DLC packs.

The Chromeline one is still green, just has chrome GT logo. It can be obtained from the Facebook game.

The XJ13 only comes in a very dark BRG, I've painted mine "Old English White" - it brings out the curves beautifully

I painted the Jaguar "Matt black" it shows all the bolts on the wings etc , it looks like it is falling apart.

OP you can win one in a B-Spec race i think so save your 20 million credits.

You just can't, which is annoying. It seems the only thing you can change is length (mm) and speed (km/h). I also wanted to change torque from kgfm to Nm, but no. We could do this in GT4 👎

I made my GT5 car list spreadsheet convert power and torque to metric automatically.
