I don't like damage very much.
What if i am driving an endurance, got 15 minutes left to go of a 2 hour race and i drive into a wall because the slower car i wanted to lap, isn't letting me pass.
I drove 105 minutes for nothing. That would suck big time.

I think a lot of people make the mistake of saying "most people prefer damage" without really looking into it. Most GT3 owners don't appear on these forums and a large percentage (I'd say close to half) of those here don't want mandatory damage.
Most people that buy and play GT3 (and other console games for that matter) aren't hardcore simulation fans. They're people who play the game for fun and don't want to devote 2-4 hours a day to the game or have it screw them over time and again. They want it to be fun and that's about it.
Most simulation gamers stick to PC gaming and avoid consoles for their tendency to use "arcade" style gameplay over the more realistic play expected out of simulations.
If a game gets too realistic, the fun-oriented players won't buy the game. What that means is lower budgets for programming and licensing and a game that even the simulation players won't want, regardless of the realism.
On the flip side, simulation players will buy the game because it is the peak of the genre with or without damage. If fun-oriented players and sim-oriented players will buy the game without requiring damage, then it isn't going to be in the game.
At this point, adding damage just represents additional expenditure of time and money without proportionately greater gains. Companies aren't stupid. If they can cut a cost out and not lose any market share, they'll be more than happy to do so.

Is it possible for gamers like us to sign a pettition, asking polyphony digital, for the upcoming gt game what ever it is to include in the game visual damage inflicted on the care in the case of an accident.
in the end we the gamers are the ones who are paying for the games, and i think we have the right to demand higher quality games, eventually it all comes down to the money we are the consumers and they are the providers, so i think we have the right for better quality products, not like taht what we have is bad but it can be better!
