I hope the officer made him wash his hands before starting paperwork.

This is the fist rendering I've seen with a license-plate bracket, which was inevitable. Lets hope it doesn't detract too much from a gorgeous front end.

The beauty of modern cellphones is that someone will always be around not only heckle you on a dumb-ass move, but make it public for you to find later.

The picture of her skull damage is genuinely disturbing (I got sick for a moment), but it's genuinely amazing how they were able to fix her. I wonder how many years you'd have to go back where this wouldn't be medically possible, or such a crash would have killed her on the spot if it weren't for modern safety gear. …

Well there's your answer.

I love how pissed he gets while tracking the RS, some of the most entertaining Chris Harris moments I've seen.

What a douche.

Seeing how they'll probably be blowing some of these up and they're already shooting, the E7's unavailability and cost were probably big factors. I totally agree, it would have rocked, but the Taurus IS a classic Robocop piece.

Sounds like those drivers are going to be tart-dy.

Maybe a brighter color will do the trick. Lime green?

I didn't consider cut scenes and the like of voicework, I was thinking more for just multiplayer. Even so, you're right - I probably made it sound easier than it was. Oh well, I guess I'll live with it.

I've seen video game companies do more with less. 1000's of hours for simple avatar options? They already have a collection of other NPC's modeled for cars, I'm not suggesting they flesh out RPG-level customization (if you had read). Where did you get this huge #? Do you work for Playground Games?

When you're in free roam multiplayer, can you pull up behind someone in your lobby and challenge them the same way you would an AI driver in single-player?

I've heard that list is incomplete. If you were to estimate (I don't expect you to sift through the whole list), how many cars would you say there are? You can estimate in terms of Forza 4 if that's easier (half, 1/4, etc).

OH SNAP.

This is an all too common occurrence, as others have pointed out, where a government rescued company tanks and money simply vanishes. I DO care if 250 million tax payed dollars goes up in smoke, and the fact that its less than 1% of our budget makes no difference. How many companies received this much and died…

Maybe they'll address this, along with the free-roam issue (no traffic). I can't imagine adding a simple change to the character modeling, even if it was just gender+ethnicity options, would be a huge task on a studio that's already accomplished this much. Go to the forums, I'm sure there's a thread, and join. They…

No hurry. We non-journalists still have a week before launch.

Please accept my early request into Jalopnik's car club.

It shows up on my calendar as day after hell freezes over and "Republican + Democrat meet-greet sing along."
