They actually did a really nice job with it. Tons of different paint types and colors. You can also put different wings and body kits. Even little details like tow hooks and hood pins. You really can make your car uniquely your own. My buddy had a 240SX when we were teenagers so I made it look exactly like his and sent him a video he loved it.

Join the PS Direct raffle for the chance to buy. I got mine ~2 months after I signed up.

I am on twitter & following on PS5 sale. Recently a lot of site/company's are doing "Member's only" kinda thing. Like today, there were Digital ver on sale on Game Stop, but it was only for Pro members.

I got mine from Wal Mart. They usually drop 11 pm EST. They put up 3300 units, people had a good couple hours to buy one.

You can always try buying one in person.

I got pretty lucky with my PS5 purchase. Walked into an ebgames Saturday morning at open and they had one in stock.

It was $800 I wasn't planning to spend

For the R34, I put my livery on that I made in GT Sport. I also added the hood latch and tow strap. I added the Type A front, side, and rear lip kit, and the extended OEM spoiler.

Only performance mod I added was the racing exhaust just to change the look. Haha. I'll do more performance mods once I can't place on the podium in campaign races. Sport mode, definitely can't race in a stock car. Tried racing in a stock GR Yaris and surprise, surprise, last place. LOL

I keep running into one bug. Basically I use rest mode a lot between game sessions. If I start rest mode inside GT7 and then wake it up and it's in one of the racing modes, then the world map never loads. So I have to entirely close the game and restart it.

I gave up after being on the PSN list, getting the invite, waiting an hour in the queue, and finding out they were out of stock. My Fiancée ended up getting one at retail price for me. She accidentally hacked Amazon basically. She clicked order, it said out-of-stock, but then when she went to back out she got stuck in some wierd loop and it ended up in the cart, lol! Probably some kid at home crying somewhere but whatever one less little pre-teenager screaming profanity at me while they beat me at everything with their speedy reaction times.

What experience mode are you guys playing in? I started in whichever the normal/middle one is but I might try the hard mode. At least so far doing the Cafe stuff the races are super fun but could stand to be a little more challenging. They're only real difficult if my car is underpowered. Well, except for some reason during the French hot hatch ones it felt like the opponents finally started driving a bit more defensively.

I race in hard mode with all assists off. It's REALLY hard already and I'm only on book 15. The American racing seemed very aggressive they were spinning me out all the time. Before that the only time I felt the A.I. got agressive with me was if I bumped them first.
