From race-room.com and I am more excited about buying a game than I have been in more than a year.

Don't forget: GT Legends is a semi-arcade game rather than a sim. The driving model is sim-like but don't forget that you have to Unlock all but two of the 70 cars by winning races like a console game. The damage model has also been scaled way back from GTR/GTR2. It's bumper cars, man. Bumper cars and video game unlocking. Most people have forgotten those two little details.

Btw: there's an easy way to unlock all the cars in GTL, as in rFactor. Just google it.
