I skipped 2011 to possibly look into 2012, but I don't drive ugly cars...

I suppose I could drive as Button and enjoy punishing uglier cars...
Nah, seriously, maybe if 2011 drops a bit more in price - I do admit that I would enjoy KERS and DRS to play with, as well as the better color palette.
OTOH I've tons to learn yet in 2010 and haven't touched half the tracks there.

I got 2010 when it first came out, swore I wouldn't get 2011 after the one patch debacle. Well, I gave CM the benefit of the doubt and got 2011 when it first came out, swore I wouldn't get it after seeing it's Mario Kart physics. Now, I know why it sucked. Hell, the one part of the game I enjoyed was the Career mode and they diminished it in 2011.
I damn sure won't be getting 2012 unless I see it for 5.99 or less on Steam. By the time they get it done, I'm sure I'll have plenty of other racing choices to keep me more than busy with pCARS, rF2, AC and whatever great mods pop up between now and then.

I bought F1 2011 and Dirt3 when Steam had a special going. I lasted about 30 minutes with each and parked them. One of my biggest problems is the User Interface with both. There was a time when I hated the thought of using a mouse(many moons ago). Now it's mandatory that I use one! However, with the UI as it is, even a mouse would take too long to get you where you wanted to go.
And then there is the physics....
Speaking of Dirt3, I wish someone would produce a proper stand-alone rally sim.

Always a good suggestion, BUT... RBR is 7-8 years old now. We haven't had a "quality" pure rally sim since. I agree with LowellJewell, I wish someone would make a new one.

I know it is not everyone's cup of tea/coffee/hot beverage of choice, but I don't see why WRC and WRC2 don't qualify as "quality pure rally sim".
It drives better than Dirt3, it has more stages, more countries, Group B cars and no X-Game stuff.
