What extra cars can you get in the LE copy?
Also it's shte (imo) that you can start in a Aygo/C1 but not a Peugeot 107 but can gt it later on.

Do changing the exhausts actually change the sound of the car like it did in Forza 2 coz I can't tell so I'm guessing no which'll be hugely dissapointing for me?

Got it yesterday and today my Xbox decides to red ring for the second time, and I'm out of warranty this time too. So it's either new xbox or pay them £60 to repair it

I started with the Fox and that was already loaded with sports bits.

Anyone else think the handling is shocking?
Doesn't matter what tyres or pressures I use, I have little to no grip at all on corners.
See they've made the game alot harder too, even on easy, the opponents don't seem to leave me arse much at all, espc on the smaller tighters tracks.

handling is fine you just need to be smoother and actually slow down for the corners lol, if you find yourself sliding off look at what speed you are doing and think would i actually be able to corner like that at this speed
has anyone tried autovista? graphics on that are stunning

I'm not talking about coming off the track, just seem to be sliding every damn where.
I'm not going too quick around the corners though and when I'm slowing down for them, I'm getting slammed in the arse by whos behind me or over taken.
Wasn't like that on Forza 3, this seems to be alot harder.

harder probably means more realistic lol, seems reasonably close to driving on track in real life, not 100% perfect though, wheel user though so maybe thats why??

trouble with a stick is, especially if you have sim steering on, that you can apply full lock in micro seconds, this is imo unrealistic as you couldnt possibly turn a steering wheel this far that quickly.
i thin kthats why paul j was getting a lot of drifting effect going on with sim steering and pad control, because he was simply able to apply full lock so quickly.
Introduce a steering wheel and you limit your ability to full lock to a more natural realistic level

I've only played the demo but smoothness seems to be the key, especially with the high power/RWD cars.
Too fast into the corners and you run wide with little hope of correcting it, too much throttle and you just spin the rears up. Maybe try leaving the driving aids on (but not brake assist) until you get the hang of it.

Already have them all on.
Think I'm gonna take this game back, I'm not liking it at all, its nothing like Forza 3 was.
