*rolls eyes* Gran Turismo is about RACING.  It's about going as fast as you can.   I don't really define any of the cars I listed as "sports cars."  That wasn't the point  The point was that Honda has gone the direction of economical and utilitarian, basically as far away from the sport of racing as they can.  A FWD hybrid that's ridiculously heavy for its size and has 0 get up and go is the antithesis of the car anyone would want to drive in Gran Turismo, and anyone interested in the car isn't going to be looking at it for its performance.  There are plenty of other cars being released/unveiled at the moment that appeal far more to the type of person that would be interested in GT5.

*rolls eyes*

Polyphony teamed up with Red Bull Racing to create this:

And collabortaed with Citroen to build this:

And with Mercedes to make this car the face of GT5:

And they helped design this with Nissan:

So what are you complaining about?


Did I complain about any of that?  No.  I just think this event in particular is stupid. (FYI, you're giving them way too much credit for some of those.  At most they helped tweak the exterior design on those cars they "collaborated" on.)

I'm a big fan of GT, I just think they could've chosen something better than the CR-Z.  The Paris Motor Show is right around the corner, and dozens of cars are on the verge of being unvieled.  Hell, Lamborghini's new Murcielago replacement is set to be unvieled along with all the other stuff I mentioned.
