I find it a lot better than Forza once you ramp up the track difficulty (it's the same track it has to be the AI that's ramped up) to A or B. I have close battles with the whole pack of (albeit small pack) cars the whole way around nurburgring and that's exciting.

I play on "S" which is still not that hard. But then again, Ive been playing some of these tracks since GT2. A bit obsessed.

That's to enrich the value of multiplayer play, there are over 800 cars in this game (I only realized this after I read the online docs about it) there will be cars that your friend rocks that you totally can't find or afford. Being able to share the cars means you can get some cars for free given you play this outside your living room sometimes in a social setting.

Sadly, it seems half of the 800 is Japanese or a Skyline. Don't get me wrong, the small population will care that it's a Type S, vs. Type S Zero, vs. Type R. For me, I love it.
I think alot of people were expecting way too much. Like you said, this is portable gaming. For guys like me, give me realistic tracks, real cars, decent physics and I'm happy. I'm a glutton for punishment and will continually check the dealerships like a retards searching for the car I need (Please increase the domestics!)
Gran turismo is not perfect but should be held to a higher standard. One of the aspects I miss very much, is lapping the same track repeatedly changing my suspension and comparing lap times. I'm also obessesd lapping the same track with different cars in the same class comparing track times. From my own observation thus far for sport compacts:
DC5,EP3,GTI,DC2,Focus.
Fav car at the moment, my Spoon EK and Camaro. Anyone know if Mugen is available or the Grand National?
