The list of features is as followed:

Simple 1 vs 1 racing

For news postings and announcements.
Time Trial

Who knows what this might be.
Team Builder
Online clans perhaps? The ability to assemble a group of racers and manage with them?
B-Spec Race
Again, who knows what this could be.
Club Builder
Possible similarities with Team Builder, perhaps?
License Test

That is one large list...
So as you can see, the list is pretty huge and in depth (pending official confirmation), with GT5 turning out to be one of the better racing games of 2008 – with a little competition in the form of Midnight Club: Los Angeles, naturally.
Gran Turismo 5 is a PlayStation 3 exclusive racing sim that is backed by the success of its four mammoth predecessors. GT5 will feature over 700 cars including for the first time ever, Ferrari vehicles. Also for the first time ever will be a complete online mode as well as real-time In-Car view to immerse gamers into the racing experience. Set to release in 2008, Gran Turismo 5 is a must own for any PS3 racing enthusiast.

this game is going to be absolutely insane. i cant wait any longer. give it to me now. por favor.
you know what would be cool? if, in your personal apartment in home, you could have a garage. and you could pick a car from any racing game you own and put it in there :D like if you bought a ferrari in GT5, you could put that in there. or if you have a completely tricked out 350Z from NFS, you could put that in there. that would be amazing :P

I cant get excited about this game. I loved the first three but didnt think the 4th was that great and the 5th just doesnt grab me. Maybe Ill change my mind but right now Id go for the latest Burnout before GT5.
