Polyphony director says next-gen racer could arrive as late as Q4 2008
Despite the fact that a demo of Polyphony Digital’s highly anticipated racer is already up and available to download from PS3’s PlayStation Network, the game’s creators have warned that the final version of Gran Turismo 5 might not arrive until late 2008.
CVG’s Mike Jackson reports that the game’s director Kaunori Yamauchi has stated that the earliest it could possibly arrive would be spring next year – but insisted that Sony is more than willing to push the release back to ensure the game is as good as it possibly can be.
Cars are named as one of the key reasons for the delay – apparently it takes 180 days for an in-game model to be built for GT5, significantly more than the 30 days it took for the car models in GT3.
In addition, crash damage has been ruled of the game, with Yamauchi insisting that to implement such a feature would require a complete re-working of the physics and car models. He did add though that post-release downloadable cars are a certainty.

Ignore
Ignore this story. It comes from a US car magazine called Car and Driver and is a very average piece, mainly speaking about Polyphony Digital's studios and the trck days the company has. All the quotes could easily have been culled from other sources (and some time ago) and poorly interpreted. Wait until some real info comes out, from E3 or the Tokyo Games Show before coming to any conclusions.
Re: Ignore
Polyphony are notorious perfectionists, so it was always going to be a little late to the PS3.
Word is going around that there will be time of day effects as well as weather effects during races (patchy rain/snow)
I hope they include the ability to respray cars.. there is nothing worse then winning a great car with a dire colour that you cannot change.
