Updated General Information

• Over 90 cars on the launch disc, with downloads every 6 weeks
• You CAN modify performance, based on the manufacturers catalogue
• The Koenigsegg CCR is in the game (Someone asked what the fastest car was, probably this)
• "For me, it's all about a Magnum P.I. mustache and a Testerosa" People used this as a style example in these forums, I guess you can do it
• You can lock the 8 gamers that you'll actually so to be sure that you friends dont keep disappearing, much like they seemed to do in FFXI
• There are a total of 45 achievements in the game including solo challenges, collections of cars, bikes, clothes and houses. There are also level changes according to your score, and as you progress you can unlock new features (photo mode, game mode, editor mode, etc) You can also unlock new challenges in game mode.
• Police WILL chase you for speeding!
• "What I enjoyed most about the E3 demo of TDU I was given was that some standard racing game mechanics seem to have been simplified"

Looks VERY promising so far.

I was just saying to my boss I'm pleased to see that in there. They announced the Jags were in it this week.

This game looks amazing! I'm certainly getting it! No Renaultsports?

The game list does look promising. Just about every supercar available, bar the Carrera GT?
