    Game has been delayed again, not just this edition but all versions of the game, No new date given or even if it will make it for this year, could be 2011.

    Game has been delayed due to the new hack they found. GT has to run on new firmware now. Bet it will be december in stores.

    My guess is Sony boss wants to release it early to capitalized holiday sales.

    OMG - I didn't realise the NTSC edition came with a Model Car aswell, I though It was like the PAL collectors edition that just came with a book and come DLC code.

    Have added this version to the most valuable list.

    Thanks Twistedsymphony for the pictures they are first rate.
