Hmm, so if I preorder trough Amazon I get a “Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Stealth Model,” Best Buy its the “Nissan GT-R GT500 Stealth Model,” Walmart is “Honda NSX GT500 Stealth Model,” or through GameStop a “McLaren F1 Stealth Model.” I think I am going with GS, even though I despise that store and their policies.

" Polyphony Digital has worked to improve engine sounds." Thank god, because in the real world a Ruf CTR2 sounds just like a turbocharged Miata, or a GT40, or a 350Z… At least according to the last couple renditions of this game… Pre-ordered, oh yeah. ---

I couldn’t agree with you more. Every car sounded the same in all the previous renditions of the game. They better have fixed that shit.
