Sorry jeorge and Jerry and who ever else. (i just found out)

Gran Turismo was shipping out (for sale) on Dec 20, 2009. Now it looks like it will ship either on Feb 2, 2010 (gamestop) or Marsh 31, 2010 (amazon). And what is even wrose is being that these are two different dates and two different stores the real ship date my not even be known yet by the manuf?!

Holy Ferrari, Porsche and Audi Batman......of the 400+ cars, plenty of those three car manufactorers.

I didn't see the RE Amemiya RX7

I did see "stock car" on a couple of cars such as the Chevy Monte Carlo....I wonder if this is a NASCAR shell?

Man, 18 more days....

we could just use some american muscle, new camero or a mustang (no new mustang) I also did not see that many SUVs. There is a Dodge Ram truck i think, an Audi Q7 TDI (500 hp disel) and a land rover that is it thankfully.

xrider....I'm done with the NFS games....let me know when you want to trade for something else, or if you're not finished with the games you have, we can trade later.

Once the 27th comes though...it will be all Forza 3.

Yeah, no Vauxhal Monaro or Pontiac GTO...they still have the Cobalts..... so I assume the "stock cars" will be the cars for Nascar setups. I'm surprised there wasn't a Toyota Camry stock car. There is a Dodge Charger stock car.

Isnt the BMW X5 an SUV as well?

Only 1 Keonisseg

I'm glad that they posted the LE content as well, now I know what my extra 20 bucks went to.

The additional download token for first day buyers is a nice thank you from Turn 10 as well. I just hope that those cars don't find there way to the Platinum Hits edition what that comes out a year later...it is nice having a car no one else has access to, like the 350 limited edition Z from Forza 2.

alright, we'll meet up sometime soon to trade back. i haven't really been playing on my 360 much these past few months. the game i was really digging was DiRT, but after the disk became unreadable is when i stopped most of my playing. i haven't really had the time to go into a gamestop or w/e to do that thing we talked about.

and, i think i will actually buy myself a copy of that game if i could find one used somewhere.

more info can be found by typing into google, "john mccain, dictator".

and IMO, i agree with keith on having more furlow days is the better option than cutting pay by 11% with the additional 10% tax increase for teachers. for teachers, it's going to essentially be a 21% pay cut if that goes through!
Are you for real?

You really are out of touch with reality.

^agreed

So is anyone else anoyined with those Ford Taurus commercails comparing it to an Audi A6 (and out running it)?
The Taurus SHO is the the top of the line Ford and the A6 is the base model Audi...I guess they are comparing similar priced models. Here is the thing that gets me, what Ford owner that is considering the Taurus would actually thing about getting an Audi and vice versa even more so.

Cesar / Jeroge you guys back yet? How was your cruise?

Yeah, I dont know what market they are going after with a supercharged version of a Taurus.....that market is going elsewhere.....Audi, Mercedes......


They did offer a SHO version of the Taurus in the early 90s I think....I wonder if the sales back then make then think that a new version would boost sales and the name brand?


..and it seems to go against all that money that the government flung there way, with the stipulation that they look at energy conservation and alternative fuel sources...?

(thought I would throw in a political spin )
