Not sure if this has already been covered:
http://au.playstation.com/news/gt4_aus.jhtml Australian auto power injected into GT4 Sony Computer Entertainment Australia today announced that cars from Australian manufacturers Holden, Ford Australia and Ford Performance Vehicles (FPV), will be joining a cast of over 80 manufacturers totalling over 700 cars in the highly anticipated release of Gran Turismo4 (GT4), exclusive to PlayStation®2. Drivers wanting a car that is as savage as it is sophisticated will be able to enjoy the Holden Monaro CV8, the most powerful mainstream Holden ever produced. Enthusiasts will also be able to take the Holden SS for a spin, cruising the photo realistic GT4 scenery. Ford fans will now also have the rare opportunity to drive the just released F6 Typhoon, FPVs first turbocharged model with over 370 Brake Horse Power (bhp), or the 2000 Ford Falcon XR8. If that's not enough grunt, the Ford Falcon GT, with over 550bhp will also be available. There is no shortage of driving options. Concept cars, historical cars (going back to 1886), rally beasts, highly customised street racers with supercharges and nitrogen boosted vehicles are amongst the drivable cars in GT4. Options like the super fast Toyota 88C-V will be as close most will get to the 2.5 million dollar mid engine race car, with up to 788bhp. "In their pursuit to craft the ultimate racing game, the Gran Turismo series developer, Polyphony Digital, called upon local Australian businesses to assist in capturing important details on Ford and Holden. From recording car handling, detailing specs, taking images and recording engine sounds, Polyphony's renowned perfectionism and attention to detail leaves no doubt. GT4 will be the biggest title in the series yet," said Michael Ephraim, Managing Director, Sony Computer Entertainment Australia/New Zealand. The Gran Turismo franchise, which began in 1997, is the ultimate driving simulator. Loved and revered by millions of fans the world over for its cutting edge graphics, huge diversity of vehicles and utterly compelling gameplay, the GT series has sold over 34 million copies to date. Feast your eyes on the first screens of the Aussie cars in action, and expect official local release details for Gran Turismo 4 in the coming weeks.
