Shortly after the first Gran Turismo 5 gameplay video has surfaced, a second video has been released by Gamersdye.com, showing the title’s new damage system in full swing.
We get to check out the Subaru WRC race car at Toyko, suffering some heavy damage including a lost door, bumpers and more. Damage is one of the major new features that has been added to the GT franchise and it looks like the PD staff has done their homework pretty well.
Gran Turismo 5 will be bringing 1000 cars and over 60 tracks to the Playstation 3, including new features such as damage, weather and day/night effects. A release date for the newest part of the GT franchise has not yet been revealed.
Update: The following quote comes from IGN who talked to Kaz Yamauchi about the damage modeling, confirming that only select cars will have a proper damage model. It’s unknown wheter or not that has something to do with the difference between premium and standard models or if damage will only be available for race cars, something Kaz hinted earlier at.
“The next detail Kazunori touched on was regarding damage models. I can confirm that not every car in Gran Turismo 5 will sport damage models — it will only be select sets. However, Kazunori has yet to decide on a finalized list of featured car types for damage support.”

Yeah, but Grid's physics engine also sucks. It's about combining the pinnacle of racing physics with the realism of destructability.

I am a little disappointed there aren't scrape marks on the wall after the sideswipe...

Yeah, it's months from release though, so they'll probably include it. It would be cool if you could leave your paint on the barriers and other cars.
