Grand Turismo 5 does not use 100000 polygon models of premium cars, that is for standard cars in photoshot/photobooth/garage mode in same mode Premium cars have 500000. You keep mixing up information between gameplay and photobooth/garage models. *facepalm*
Also your self denial, screenshots that Kane took are from Cinematics otherwise there would have been a HUD and again I said simple design not detail, do you even know meaning of design and detail? They do not have same meaning at all, do you even know english? Are you using a translator or what?
Here is an example;
Imagine you have 1500 to play with and you make a sphere that has 1210 polygons and you add 13 spikes and each has 22 polygons which totals 1496 polygons. Then you get a task to make a 3D character and lets say you choose to make Mario and with that much polygons you can make Mario from Super Mario Sunshine on Gamecube. Do you understand now? This is a very simple example that you should understand.
I am not sure if that one gauntlet has enough polygons for bowsers head, I would need to examine various angles too see if Bowsers head has more polygons or are comparable...
