-leadership board
-more events (seasonal event)
-"rare" collector car's dealership (even though i think they will charge more than the random used car lot, but at least people dun have to sit thru 6 hours of used car dealership to find the Formula GT)
-being able to restart an event after it finishes... HELLO grinding fans
-adding exp/Cr in online mode... very nice 
-dmg in pratice mode (hmm, whatev.. i still occasionally crash like no tmrw... so ya.. i like being a "cheat")
-to me the most important is the save data back up.. holy shit lol
now the one other thing that i wanted was rewind an fastfwd in replay mode...

Gran Turismo 5 v1.05 Update Brings New Events & More, Available Now
The latest update to Gran Turismo 5, version 1.05, was made available just a few hours ago and weighs in at 608MB. Here’s a quick, official summary of all the new changes, but users are discovering a few more new tweaks in our forums as well:
* Seasonal Events: [Seasonal Events] have been added to the [GT Mode] – [GT Life] screen. From here you can participate in official online events from the Polyphony Digital team. In these events, all participants are under the same regulations, and if you complete the event you will win rewards and experience. Compete on the leader boards with players around the world, in Time Trials and Drift Trials!
* Online Collector’s Dealership: An [Online Collector's Dealership] has been added to the left and centre of the [GT Mode]-[GT Life] screen. In here you will find popular and rare cars. You might just come across that one car you’ve always been looking for, that you haven’t been able to find in the [Used Car Dealership].
* Online Race Rewards and Experience: When you complete a race in the [Open Lobby] or [My Lounge], you will now gain rewards and experience points. Even if you are focused more on playing online, you’ll still be able to gain rewards and levels that you need to progress in [GT Life].
* Driving Distance and Number of Wins in Online Races: The driving distance and the number of wins you achieve when you complete a race in [Open Lobby] or [My Lounge] will now affect your stats in [Profile] and the [Garage]. Here the results from your online play will cumulate within [GT Life].
* Improved Rewards: The rewards for winning races in both A-Spec and B-Spec in [GT Mode]-[GT Life] have been increased for a limited time only. (This applies until the end of January 2011.) This is a great chance for those who were previously having difficulties getting ahead in the game, due to a lack of funds for tuning and purchasing required cars.
* Race Information Display: It is now possible to set the [Race Info Display] in [Start]-[Quick Options]. (You can also set this in [Race Display] in [Options]).
* Save Data Backup: You can now copy and restore your save data. For details, please refer to the in-game [Manual].
* User BGM (Menu): From [Options]-[Hardware]-[Audio Settings], it is now possible to set the [User BGM] (Menu)]. (This can also be set from the [Music Library] within [GT Mode]).
* Car Name Change: The official name of “Red Bull X1″ has been changed to the “Red Bull X2010″.
* Integration with the Website: The main features within [GT Mode]-[Community] can now also be accessed through the “gran-turismo.com” official website.
* [Important Note:] We have made improvements to the [Log] within [GT Mode]- [Community] section, in order to make its operation more stable. Please note that the information that was contained here from before the update has been reset.
MORE UPDATES:
* The license test menus have been streamlined. After winning a bronze or silver trophy, for example, you have the option to immediately restart the test without having to sit through the animation sequence. (Thanks, Alex.)
* GT Academy USA has now been listed in the new Seasonal Events (I’m writing up a full post on this now).
* Mechanical damage has now been implemented in the game’s “Practice Mode” – the first time the feature has been usable outside of the custom online events.
One interesting thing to note is that today, December 20th, was set to be the launch date of the US GT Academy. However, as of writing there is no mention of this in the latest update, though presumably it may appear in the new “Seasonal Events” later. Stay tuned for more, and thanks to all who sent this in so quickly!

So these seasonal events basically if you win first place they're useless after that because you don't gain any money and XP aftwer you've won gold.
I've only won gold in the challenger race and silver on all the others, for some reason the challenger race is super easy I passed the first guy with a lap n half to go, the other races I finish behind the first guy by 5 seconds but I'm gonna remedy that soon as logitech ships me a new steering wheel.
I'm wondering why the time trials or even drift trials don't give you anything, no money no xp at all Posted via RS Mobile | |

The CRZ event looks doable with a stock CRZ, yet I may add the suspension mod to help it corner better, it understeers badly. The GT-R event seems tough for any of the older GT-Rs. You need a lot of downforce to fly through the corners, and only the newest GT-R allows front & rear downforce settings. My GT-R Spec-V had too much HP, so I tried with a modded R33. I guess I need to buy another new Skyline. | |

It's damn hard to get 1st in the seasonal races except for the challenger one. I was 2 seconds behind in the CR-Z event.

you can do some light mods with the crz - light weight reduction (cf hood and glass) and i just upgraded the tranny so it will get up to speed faster
