    What car or type of car will you be going for when you first load up GT5? I've always been a fan of the skyline as a great starter car in the previous games. I eventually want to work up to a GTR of some sort. I've always loved the driving style of these car.
     
    How about you guys?

    First I'll end up buying the Toyota AE86 (Initial D Car), and then the Infinity G27 and Mercedes E350 that I own in real life. 
     
    Then I juice up license exams and figure out how to unlock the X1.  Goddamnit, I want that fucking car more than anything.   
     
    I will smoke the fuck out of everyone if I can find out how to get the X1 first.

    I don't really have a car I'll go for first, but I'm aiming for a Nissan GTR, when they had it on Top Gear Jeremy did a damn good job of making it sound like a monster.

    Oh fuck, forgot about that car.  It's easily on the top 5 on my list.  Damn, over 1000 cars to pick from...it's gonna be hard to make a top car list.  x.x

    My first target car will be a jazzed up Honda Integra. After that, probably a tuned Skyline (R32 and or R34).

    I'm not too sure. Integra Type R probably. Maybe an Evo IX or earlier - not quite as fond of the newer Evo X design.

    I'll go for my real-life previous car (Subaru Impreza), my current car (Lexus IS) and my next car (Nissan GTR R35).

    I love a good sleeper car myself. The more unusual it is to see it on the track, the better for me it is. That, and for some reason, I find it much more fun to race slow cars fast and to truely push them beyond their limits.

    TVR Speed 12. I don't care if it has more power than the wheels can ever handle (or burns through them in two short laps), but that is one insane batshit car.

    Starter car? Probably something in the civic/integra department. I know I'm lame picking out a FWD car but it's what I have always started with.

    Hmm...  
     
    I usually start out with a sport model Civic, and work my way towards Subarus, then finally settle on a good rear-engined Porsche.

    Corrected.  No Porsche, so you have to get it from the real Porsche manufacture.  RUF FTW. 
     
    Also, why do you race Rally?

    I know it's been like this for years now but I have never known the reason. Are Porsche being pricks, and if so why. Seems like free advertising to me, not to mention they have an extensive racing history.  Have they been locked into a deal with another company or something?

    EA owns the rights to Porsche, and if you want them in your games you gotta pay EA first.  Kazu never pays for cars, and he said if manufacturers want their cars in GT, they are free to do so.  He never asks.  It's why the Mercedes trailer for GT5 was exclusive to the Mercedes site.

    I don't know about a starting car but I definitely can't wait to see what new rally cars there will be. I think Sebastian Loeb's Redbull Citroen would be a must.

    I'm going for the rally version of my ride, the Celica GT4. A small portion of the cars I want I already unlocked through Prologue. Nissan GTR, Evo IX, and BMW M3: acquired.

    The first car I'm going for is the car I already own in real life.... the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII. After that, I'll go for a Nissan GTR and then maybe a Ferrari F430 Scuderia.

    1987 Fiat Panda. If it doesn't break down doing one lap of the Nurburgring, then GT5 ain't real enough for me.

    I really enjoy the ST185, on gran turismo PSP for drifting on the Ice Course. I've found it the most stable, and it's a well balanced car for ice/snow.  
    Can't wait to earn it in GT5.   

      Get a good min or two into the video for a feel..., then forward to 4:13

    I'll get some form of Camry so I know if the game is realistic or not.  
    Basically if that car doesn't do 0-60 in 9 seconds the game is going to Gamestop.

    Doubt it'll be a starter car, but yeah, i want to check out the CR-Z. Considering i'm planning on getting one when it comes out if i can afford it. Which i probably can't, damn jacked up Aus prices.
