Gran Tourismo 5 Gets DLC Next Week
The Playstation Blog just announced some new DLC coming to Gran Tourismo 5. Next week, users will be able to purchase the Car Pack 2 for $3.99 and will have access to new vehicles, parts, modes, and several fixes to the game.
Cars included:
- 2011 Mini Cooper S
- 2010 Volkswagen
- Golf VI R
- 2010 Volkswagen Scirocco R
- Improved 2012 Nissan GT-R Black edition R35
- Users who download the 2.02 update will also receive the Toyota FT-86 2012
Those who purchased the first DLC from October will unlock the Gran Turismo Racing Kart 125 SP, five "Car Refresh cards" in the game for free, as well as the 'Family Upgrade' unlocks.
"This means that if you bought the Racing Car Pack, Course Pack, or the ‘Complete Pack’ that contained both of these, by downloading the free Family Upgrade items, the content will now be accessible to more than just the user account that purchased the content. Family members or friends using the same PS3 can all use the courses and cars. Note that the upgrade doesn’t apply to the Racing Gear Pack or Special Paint Pack, and starting next week, new purchases will not have the restriction in place." – Playstation Blog
From the Playstation Blog:
- Users can now change wheels on Standard cars
- The settings sheets will include a new ‘copy’ feature
- In GT Auto, players will be able to see how the oil changes, aerodynamic parts, engine overhauls, and racing modifications will affect performance points and engine power, before and after their application
- Free coupons have been added that allow you to wash cars, change oil, overhaul your engine, or refresh the car body in GT Auto (10 coupons will be distributed for free to each of those who have downloaded the 2.02 update)
- Pressing the Square button in the car coupon selection screen of the Car Delivery will now allow you to exchange all car coupons at once, rather than doing one at a time

- In My Lounge, the room settings will feature a new ‘Max. number of participants’ setting
