Simple, make the next generation consoles so powerful that they can simply model whatever items they want in the game from real life objects. It takes months to create a car model for say Forza 3, but for Forza 4 use a camera to simply scan the actual car into the game from all angles.

If you have a technology which can do that, it should be easy to decrease the detail automatically to make it work on any console regardless of its power.

 

But that isn't as much fun!
