Gran Turismo Update 2.03 and DLC Arriving Next Week

Gran Turismo 5

Written Wednesday, January 11, 2012 By Lee Bradley

Gran Turismo 5 is getting Car Pack 3 and a new Speed Test Pack, Sony has announced.

Car Pack 3 contains a number of high-performance and characterful cars, including the Lamborghini Aventador, Jaguar XJR9, Aston Martin V12 Vantage 2011, VW 1200 1966, Mini Countryman S 2011 and the Nissan Leaf. It costs €5.99.

The Speed Test Pack, meanwhile, features a new test track with a "performance measurement mode," allowing you to compare stats and data between vehicles. That one will set you back €4.99.

Last up, for those who'd rather not spend any money thanks, Update 2.03 hits next week too, bringing some small changes to the game alongside new theme colours and wallpapers.

Everything arrives in a big cloud of tyre smoke on Jan 18th.

	This is very nice indeed! I wouldn't have minded if the Lambos and Astons weren't there, but it's nice. It's also good to see the Nissan Leaf arrive, aswell!

	I want COMPLEX STRING the coolest GT track back! I've been wanting the non-NASCAR Camry since GT1! I agree with @Badcompany87. No more Skylines! Looking forward to this next DLC, regardless.

	@3 I agree 100%. I would pay for all of the layouts for new popular tracks but not a test track.

	May I ask what source did you guys used to get the price figures? There's no info on the EU blog, nor the official GT pages for EU (or at least I can't find them, and the only place that I saw with a price for the DLC, is for Asia, and showing numbers much lower then the ones posted here).

	LOL high preformance cars and they give ya a nissan Leaf LOL not even close in comparison to the Lambos and Astons. I also agree with BadCompany87 no more Skylines but also no more Mazda MX5s and no more Subaru Imprezas there are too many I have the Subaru Rally Car for '99, 01, 01 Prototype, and 03 and there is no difference except a bhp or two more than the previous year.

	The Speed Test Track, like that long oval track in GT3 and GT4 :O I loved that track, especially on GT4 where you raced that old ass 1800s Benz and you can even go like 800 MPH on it lmao

	#14 http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/01/06/gran-turismo-5-xl-edition-hits-this-month-for-39-99/ Sadly seem buyers of XL Edition will need to pay for this third DLC

	Nyeh. Was expecting more from 2.03 Best not be a 200mb patch for a few colours if I'm honest.

	I can't believe people actually pay for this shit. No wonder DLC is way out of control , fanboys will buy any garbage.

	@18 I don't see the need for you to come on here and criticize other people's future purchases.

	@18 Unlike me, you obviously have no interest in cars whatsoever. It's a shame.
