Heads up, this a pretty good sized download. I've actually seen several different file sizes, including a 380 MB and now 1192 MB.
Definitely getting this now while the traffic's low - not gonna be fun to download something like this when the store updates. No background DL's for patches either, which is what this is being treated as.
Additionally, the new intro movie doesn't come with everything else - it's optional. You get it by going to Gran Turismo TV from the main menu and downloading it - it then replaces the old one when you start up the game (or so the update notice in-game says). It's 590 MB.

Downloading now, 1192 MB. I'm looking forward to this. I've got a bunch of standard cars I won't drive because they did not have the in car view. Now with this update will I will finally enjoy driving them.
Going to be a busy day, the GT5 update and getting Forza 4 at 9:00am. Drive , drive , drive.

Question to those who have the update: when you save a race in progress, do you have to leave the game completely, or you can keep on racing on other tracks? Thanks
Downloading now... kinda psyched for this after putting the game down since The Show's release.
Maybe I'll finally complete the Endurance races now that I can save them during the race now.

I hope the Greatest Hits version has the patches on the disc. Until then, I plan to wait. GT5 just eats up too much space and my PSN download speed is not very good.

I still want to check this update out, might change how I feel about GT5.....but they need to get more standards to premiums as Kaz promised. I give PD credit for supporting this game like they have. There are constant updates, the seasonal events, this update, and you know there will be one more Spec still to come. If anything, hope that the next update fixes the menus as they are so cumbersome to get through.

Hey guys, if you have any B-Spec drivers add me as a friend, I do a lot of the remote races and will help level them up.
Got one going right now with mine, SqueakyD's, RunN1st, and Massive's drivers....Squeaky's roasting everyone.

Has the AI improved a good deal with this update?
This is my biggest pet peeve with GT in general and I found that GT5 while a little better than prior installments was still not very good in the is regard.
Still, I'm kind of itching to oick it back up.

Will probably download this tonight and mess around with it. Still loving this game. Getting closer to getting the gold in all of the B-Spec events. Still need to work on acing some of the license tests... those can be pretty tough.

You have to deshare them to use them offline later.

A-Spec AI doesn't seem much different - there's a pretty good consensus on that.
Mixed opinions on Arcade Mode AI being more challenging, with some saying that raising the new "AI Car Characteristics" setting to 10 results in a faster and more challenging race. I have seen them jostling for position a good deal more on that 10 setting, and not just straight up ramming into the back of each other.
Here's something I can comment on - Love the ability to change the weather manually (on the weather changeable courses, that is) and practice driving in the rain. There's also a rain gauge that tells you how wet the track is, and fills up or empties depending on the current conditions. Pretty cool stuff.
Load times seem improved. However, the last time I played this game was around when my second fat PS3 died, so I haven't played it a lot on my current Slim.
I'm even less qualified to talk about the physics than I am the AI, but I've seen a lot of positive remarks coming from GTPlanet about that. I do have this though, which I just pulled off and earned a trophy for - was never able to do this before:
Visible damage looks about the same as the last big update (not much of it, as you can probably tell by that rollover), but the mechanical damage still works as well as before, and still affects the AI if I remember correctly. I remember seeing them have to pit after some particularly heavy impacts way back from the last patch.
I'm glad that they added some kind of in car camera to every single car because I enjoy racing from that perspective, I just wish more could have been done than an all-black interior. It's worth pointing out that open-top standard cars actually do have an interior, though they're of course less detailed than the premiums.
Looking forward to the DLC tracks tomorrow, that new Kart track looks fun.

It's broken down into each different part, or you can buy the whole thing for $12.
Also, correcting my previous post, it's out October 18, not tomorrow. Not sure where I got that from.
