That Suzuki would be nice if we had a gravel track (hint hint T10), other than that the '67 Chevelle looks nice since I had one in high school (I had the 327Malibu model and this is the 396SS woohoo):



And the Alfa Spider also was a favorite from the 80s:



Still not sure if I will pickup this DLC, but at least it is better than last month which I only liked the 458 Competizione so had to pass on.

Does the game have the Pikes Peak hill climb course or only Fujimi-Kaido?

Looks like the new pack is out, but the XBL servers are getting hammered, I'm guessing the new dashboard update is out too but not sure since my Xbox360 didn't update.

Going to pick up this DLC pack and see if the prices for the 458 Competizione from the Nov pack dropped as they were rumored to, but going to wait until the XBL servers are more stable to avoid my purchase disappear into the ether like some of my auctions did during the initial launch.]

Looking forward to having my highschool car to hop up and beat around in the game :-)

BTW T10 gifted VIP users (people who bought LCE version) a free Cobra 427 for this month... not too shabby.

Ironically 1 of the 2 cars i wanted from this pack was the free one, roflmao!.

still no dashboard update...

also, the netcode in FM4 seems to have been adjusted, getting alot of disconnects now on my other (not "Skate Zilla") account when trying to race online.

My Skate Zilla account is like 5 races frm completing career then all I'll have for that is online, so i hope they check this out.

with the disc at launch, it played online fine with 12 of my friends from forzacentral.

yeah i got the gift car..

too bad cars like the Mines EVOs and Skylines will never be in my garage...

Got my dashboard update and the Dec DLC pack, finally.

Tried the hillclimb car and it is awesome, this month's Rival challenge of that car at Fujimi-Kaido is going to be awesome, I did a bit of practice with it and clutch + h-shift + heel-toe there and it reminded me why I love FM4, so fun tossing the car around sideways just inches from the barriers! It will be challenging to get a full fast clean lap without getting the urge to be a bit wild :-)

Hurry and finish the career events Skate, because I think you will be addicted to the Rivals mode like the rest of us once you try it... My career has been paused since I tried it, need to get back to it sometime but so many more rivals to beat and it pays so well.

I played rivals mode and online on my other account.(my MS Given account :p )

on my personal account I've only played career to make sure I have the new tracks down and stuff.

My brother downloaded the update late last night after i had done gone to sleep, I MSN MSGd a friend that works for Xbox Live and they said the rollout started late but did not disclose why.

Ever since the patch though, Online has been a bit unstable for me w/ the same group i was playing with before.
A lot of friends getting dirty/corrupted disc error even when we all run it from the HDD.

Yeah I don't blame you, I am hoping for a tracks DLC too (especially a Spa one like the recent GT5 DLC), in the meantime I am only doing car DLCs if there is something I really like, skipped Nov, but Dec had a few I wanted, I am thankful at least there is DLC and they didn't go almost a whole year with nothing like GT5.

Dan Greenawalt had been very noncommital on track DLC in pre-release interviews, mostly because they take much more work/time than just cranking out car DLC, but I hope GT5 now made it not optional, I'd love it if these guys got in a track DLC competition now.

Sort of... T10 lets you buy some of the cars but they range in price from to 160-240 points individually (and some are non purchasable like the Lambo Aventador in Nov) whereas the whole pack is 560 points and the "season pass" is 2400 points... so the individual prices are pretty steep IMHO compared to the DLC cost, as T10 probably wants it.
