BRZ coming to Gran Turismo (GT5) on the 25th!

Anyone up for a head to head? hehe

Gran Turismo 5: Three New Cars, Update 2.08 Out Tuesday

Subaru BRZ S ’12 ($.99)

Enjoy the natural feel of a compact front engine rear wheel drive (FR) sportscar by adding the Subaru BRZ S ’12 to Gran Turismo 5.

Sharing the specifications of the Toyota FR-S, the production model prototype was announced at the Tokyo Motorshow in November 2011. In addition to the different front grill and foglights, the driving feel of the suspension settings focuses more on stability, and reflects the sports car philosophy of Subaru. In the BRZ, you can enjoy the feel of an FR layout sportscar — a rarity in today’s automobiles.

Now I just need this in Forza 4. I don't know what it is, but I tried to play GT5 the other with the GT86... can't seem to do what I want like I can with the FR-S in Forza 4

Aside from that, this pretty cool

I feel a little guilty looking forward to the Honda HSV-010 more then the BRZ..I hope they end up bringing in the BRZ or 86 from SuperGT

People still play GT5? Is it a "premium car" or a normal car without interior? I will stick with my FR-S in FM4.

A few years ago I would have criticized this post quite a bit and told you about how forza is completely unrealistic and nothing like GT5. Frankly, neither are sims by any means. If you just want to drive, I do think GT5 is marginally better but I also have a G27 setup for it so I may be biased. Everything else about GT5 is so bad though, the layout, customizations, races, it's all so much better in forza. I wish I bought a Fanatec setup instead.
