that silver C63 is hot!

I shouldnt have modded the Enzo, its like stupid fast now, like hard to control fast. And it lost that really fun driving feel I mentioned. I think I'll probably buy another one and leave it stock.

That is why I despise my B-spec driver. I have ruined so many good cars just so he wouldn't screw up a race. I love the way many cars handle stock. Especially the nsx and the last gen wrx sti. OH and I'm never going to touch my mclaren f1.

Hey Guys loyal PS3/GT5 fan checking in officially.

I read pages 33 to 72 last week and didnt see this brought up but...Is the fuel gauge functional? I raced several 15 minute races and not a single movement. If not then wtf is it for cuz i dont see any endurance levels yet.

Aspec-21
Bspec-4

^ Fuel gauge is functional. If you mean your HUD one. I've never checked the in car cam and looked at the actual cluster.

Silver Chrome is the rarest paint chip. The one way I know of getting one is... Every 30 cars in your garage, you get a horn+rare paint chip. You'll get either matte colors or chrome.

You can exploit this to kind of choose what color you want. I was at 110 cars with a few in delivery. So I took delivery and bought cars and one go kart. I couldn't figure out what else to buy and so the go kart is 5k. Buy and sell it after.

After getting 120 cars. You'll get a prompt telling you that you got the horn+rare paint chip. If it's not to your liking. Don't click okay. Quit the game, load it back up. When you get into GT Life you'll get the prompt again with a new random rare color. I did this about 5-8 times and got Chrome.

There's another exploit where you can get free paint chips by gifting cars. Doesn't work when a car is painted. So if I gifted someone my painted C 63. It would give them white, not Chrome.

Once you get to Level 25 you'll unlock the endurance races. I think if it's a race where you realistically can't run out of fuel, it doesn't go down. But it definitely does on the longer races.

no I dont think so, I can use stock parts on exhaust and intake etc. but I also did engine tuning. all 3 stages. and when you do that it says it cant be undone. if you know of any way to undo it, please let me know. thx

Can't put on better then sport soft tires either.

Lol set the torque to 10% front 90% rear on the GTR Spec V and was drifting w/ gsmron. Would be nice to put 100% to the rear, but it worked.
