the closest ive seen him give a release date was the winner of the contest and he said holiday '10 and yamauchi said it might be closer than he thinks.

He's been closer than that. In this interview he says it would probably be ready for Christmas 2008 (and he also says "four years is too long after GT4, especially for fans of the series"):

It's in Spanish btw.

 

he also said that was not a definite date, but calcutation. estimated. and it was hard to developed prologue, the game was made from zero.

source:  i know spanish ;).

Note that I said "probably". Obviously it was not an official date.
