But I want a stock supra interior, like our cars.
I skipped the install due to impatience and went straight into the B license. The nostalgic love for the GT series came flooding back. The attention to detail is staggering, even the crappy cars sound brilliant (when in the outside view), instead of a generic engine noise which rises and falls with accelerator presses, there seems to be an added roughness to the noises like slight pops on overun.
The handling has also been hugely tweaked since prologue. I always fancy myself as a purist when it comes to racing games, so I always race in manual gears, with no traction or ABS, no stability management and interior views only. In my first race in my premium 1989 mx5, coming down the straight I anchored up for the first corner, down from around 100mph, I pushed the nose of the car into the corner as it slowed, in any other sim (forza series), it's predictable, however, GT5 somehow communicates so much more to the player, something about the way the car was twitching, bouncing and leaning, told me this wasn't going as first intended, sure enough, as I come off the brakes, the weight shifts and the rear starts to overtake the front. I kept hold of it no problem, but it made it so much more exciting. These first races are usually a chore, but I found myself loving every second of it, lapping up the realism and attention to detail.
