Gran Turismo 4 is out with many MB cars!

I just picked up GT4 from my local Wal Mart and wanted to tell you guys what MB vehicles are available in GT4. This is fact and not speculation as I have the game in my possesion. Graphics in this game are second to none and the driving physics must be as close to realistic as possible. I highly recommend picking up a copy of this game. MB cars included are as follows: SL 500, CLK55, SL55, CL600, E55(!), SL600, SL65, SLR, and CLK touring race car. I was surprised to see the SL65 and SLR included.

the CL600 is only 369 hp, that angered me. Also the M5 kills the E55 we did a drag race and the M5 pulls like 5 cars off the launch alone.

Nice!

Is the CL600 the previous non bi-turbo engine? Is the E55 the current 211 version?

main menu, options, screen, you see options for 480i, 480p, and 1080i....

as soon as you are ready to race, you'll see the playstation switch the resolution...

Yes, nice to see our cars in the game. The E55 is the 211 model. The stock version in the game handles and accelerates much differently than it does in real life. If my front end dove down on braking like it does in the game, I would have gotten rid of it. I didnt see the SLR or CL65 at the dealer, are they prize cars? Overall, awesome game. I have all my licenses and am ready to get racing :v

I must admit it is awesome to see my car in the game. Kind of hit me last nite when I was watchin a replay of one of my races, I was like that is sexy. Great game though. I got my hands on the Mine's R34(My dream car) and am having a blast. I also have a Evo MR that has everything done to it possilbe. That is my "every-day" car. The Mine's is for special occasions.

I absolutely love this game. I am not going out at all this weekend so I can play this game and further my collection of the baddest toys in the world!~!

As it should on the track. I love the M5 in GT4. I've beenplaying the Japanese version for 2 months and just picked up the US version. For those who want to play in HD.... you have to use components cables and you have to set the HD mode every time you play (i.e. it doesn't save).

Im a little disappointed in the game still, but i think Forza will fix that for me. I wish the cars actually sounded like the cars. all the cars when in the in car view all sound the same. Also the V8s sound like V6s, they make no noise at all.

I'm looking forward to Forza, but I don't think it will be any better than GT4, except maybe in the garphics department. As for car sounds.... perhaps it is the sound system you are running it on. I have it running in surround sound through a home theatre and the cars sound pretty mean and distinguishable to me.

I just got GT4 today. Very nice car line up!

As for the E55, what do you think of the sound from the game? All the Mercedes in the GT series have made the same noise which dissapoints me. On the other hand, all the BMW M cars sound very realistic. What do you guys think?
