AND why has it been so slow in here?!??!

same guy selling both cars? must be, the ads are so similar and the keywords are identical. I'd take the Celica... but that's a lot of freakin' money for a 25 yr old Toyota.

Damn, that's a toughie, I'd want both lol! If I were to choose though, I'd take the GTX just because of the "under the radar"+historical factor. To you and a few in-the-know, its a WRC homologation special which essentially helped pave the way for today's WRXs/Evos, to everyone else (including a good number of car enthusiasts) its just some old mazda

some nice cars there

The GTX is soooo hard to find parts for and mod but with a big turbo is a CRAZY sleeper.

Why is your old POS Mazda so fast?!?!?!

Oh, happy Friday BTW!

Sweet, I'm glad to see more functional diffusors coming out for this car. I'll want one eventually due to my single exit exhaust and also cause they look badass.

I'm in the same club, looking at Forza with longing eyes <sigh>... On the other hand, screw Turn10 with their new game with less stuff than the previous one (cars and tracks, no more Sonoma raceway). I know its another ploy to get my hard earned cash with DLCs, which I'll probably get anyway

It's NOT a ploy for DLC. They rebuilt every track from the ground up. So ALL tracks were completly new builds. I'll miss Sanoma but adding Spa and Yas Marina are soooooooo with it. Yas Marina has like a billion configurations too. It's likely there will NEVER be track related DLC for Froza 5. They will add a track or two to the list for the NEXT game. Scanning and correctly modling the tracks is by far the most time consuning thing about building the game.

However my guess is there will be close to 100 DLC cars over the next 8-12 months.

True, hate to say this, but quality wise, Forza is leaps and bounds compared to GT (DAT sound design!) But as much as I love Forza, I may have to settle for GT6 for now, don't think I'm ready to plunk down for a next gen system just yet.
