Or well not really but its my theory atleast. I've been following GT5 for some time even before its release and I played it on GAMEX. When I got the game the "sparks" where not there, or atleast not as much as now when im A-Spec level 11.



The more sparks, the easier the car gets deformated.

 

If you just got the game, try to get these sparks. I bet you won't be able to do it. When you race now, going at 200-300 km/h its scary how two cars infront of you are battling each other and the sparks gets thrown right on your screen. Its beautiful really, this wasn't there when I first started playing. So anyway, lets hope mechanical damage will get implemented soon!

Damage is progressively opened... when you hit lvl10 through 40 you will be opening them... before there is no real damage, and after 40 it's completely unlocked.

Well, the damage model is there from the get go, especially on Arcade. I trashed a Rally car to get one of the trophies and it was left with no doors, no bonnet and totally deformed, though it took me a lot of time to achieve that kind of damage. 

In A-Spec, I've yet to see a significative amount of damage, though from what it seems, the damage model in A-Spec is at it's fullest in the Extreme Series. 

Oh well, on to golding the S-License and then finishing both the Gran Turismo Rally and the Nascar series afterwards XD

With the upcoming damage model patch, it should provide more robust damage across the board, and without that much effort.

I just did that intentionally to get the trophies. I was actually against the idea of implementing damage in GT, since GT's not about crashing cars, but to drive as well as you can, especially those skills are needed if you're trying to do well in the licenses and some of the special events.

I would love to see those people who say that they just bump ride in any GT game to get a gold trophy in the Lap Battle License tests

I'm currently doing the professional races and I've noticed my cars are getting physically deformed when I make mistakes. As for mechanical, I haven't done many to get a full feel but my beloved Tuscan speed 6 no longer works because the breaks and the handling no longer are dead (same thing happened in GT3 and 4 apparently, these cars are notorious for being good in the first 250-450 miles and then dying so...)

Yeah, that's why you have to keep doing both Engine Overhauls and Restore Body Rigidity in the GT Auto store. My Minolta in GT4 suffered a similar fate, but only when I had over 4K Km on it
