That's quite cool for V8 fans, but nowhere near as big as Gran Turismo's WRC and NASCAR licenses. What I'd be wondering is whether or not there is a difference between the cars other than their different liveries. Obviously Fords and Holdens will be different but there are 4 of each one.

Really? That's pretty cheap. Are they going to sell most of the cars as DLC or something?

It's a shame because I don't think the V8 tracks are in the game? Would LOVE to race around the Hamilton circuit.
