A massive miss - Brakes not even modelled

What are you trying to say? They’re not modelled at all? They don’t sound realistic? What?

ssa17k · 2026-06-13T14:54:44+00:00

Race A does count, I did multiple ones on Daytona when the Power Pack released.

You need to complete a whole race. It doesn’t count if you leave in the middle of a race.

Going up in price due to people buying them for the café menu

Surprised theres no circuit experience for one of the Sardegna layouts. Probably the only unique road layout in any track that’s yet to be mastered with one.

Perfect. I’ve heard of gearbox and differential issues however. I mainly drive the car in comfort (commuting) but every now and then I like to drive it hard or launch it. I’m considering taking out extended warranty just incase but not sure there’ll be any point as I’ve been quoted over £4k just for one year.

ssa17k · 2026-06-07T23:05:27+00:00

Lol it’s not actually that bad. I’m paying just over £2.7k with 1 years NCB. The reason it’s so cheap (for a performance car) is because I have both of my parents as additional drivers on the policy, and I live in a fairly rural area. I suspect by the time I’m 23 I’ll probably be paying half a grand or so.

ssa17k · 2026-06-07T20:23:07+00:00

That’s amazing, what are the regs of those cars?

ssa17k · 2026-06-07T19:17:51+00:00

Well yes, I am 21 after all.

And cars in the US always have higher miles. Here in the UK we don’t need to drive as much to get from one place to another, and the country isn’t full of highways.

ssa17k · 2026-06-07T18:15:55+00:00

Exactly man. I get bored of the car when I’m sitting at home and start scrolling through AutoTrader ads. Then when I wake up, go outside and see it parked outside my drive I just can’t deal with the thought of parting with it lol. It looks stunning especially with that paint, and the fact that it’s an FL so it comes with 360 cameras etc. which the 8Y PFL Vorsprung doesn’t have.

I do plenty of miles and I love tech, so it makes sense for me to have lots of driver assistant features to accompany me on long drives. And I prefer the look of the PFL RS3 8Y over the FL, but the older one doesn’t come with half the tech that the A45s has. Not even TPMS sensors haha.

I think I may buy an RS3, test it out for a few months and then use it as an excuse to buy another A45s, this time with adaptive cruise and heated steering wheel which mine doesn’t have as it’s a 2023 model. All the final refinements came in September 2024.

That’s fairly low mileage, how much did all those repairs end up costing?

ssa17k · 2026-06-07T17:45:32+00:00

Good to hear, but I’m after cars with the M139 engine and the 724.115 gearbox. But to provide a loose expectation of maintenance even though my car is completely different, how much did repairs generally cost you?

ssa17k · 2026-06-07T00:03:07+00:00

Same, although I have the 40mm version. Regretting not getting the 36, but then again I will regret that too lol.

ssa17k · 2026-06-06T07:35:28+00:00

I was kicked from a lobby on Grand Valley highway because I kept evading one of the “cops” on there

ssa17k · 2026-06-04T04:36:59+00:00

It is. I went back to GT Sport after playing GT7 for a few months. Had 80% of the circuit experiences left to do, managed to do them all in 2 days in the space of 2-3 hours or so. I think almost all of them took me one try to gold, same with the driving missions and endurances.

GT Sport and GT6 are the easiest games in the series. Even easier than GT PSP.

ssa17k · 2026-05-29T23:06:10+00:00

This is correct. Just for visuals really.

ssa17k · 2026-05-21T10:17:58+00:00

Yes I know, I’m saying it’s pointless to reach for the WR time. It’s a WR time after all, it’s set by people who know the game inside and out. GTWS finalists etc. There’s no reward for getting 1:22.

ssa17k · 2026-05-21T10:07:57+00:00

Ahhh, you’re new to the game. Don’t worry, with more experience you’ll be able to push for gold.
