Gran Turismo Life

Immerse yourself in racing as you work on your career, purchase new cars, connect with friends, and more. It all starts here.



A-Spec Mode

Get behind the wheel and improve your skills by tackling a variety of racing events. The incredible "Cockpit View" camera lets you race from the best seat in the house, complete with fully re-created interiors and working gauges.



B-Spec Mode

Manage a stable of AI (artificial intelligence) drivers as the director and manager of a racing team. Coach them to victory and monitor their stamina. It's possible to complete a full GT Life career in both A-Spec and B-Spec modes.

Special Events

Race to gain experience points and level up to unlock new special events, including training courses hosted by real professional race car drivers.



Car Dealer

Race hard and earn credits to purchase new cars to add to your collection. Pick from some of the best and fastest cars the world has to offer, recreated in stunning detail.

Used Car Dealer

If you're looking for a bargain or a rare find, check out the used car dealer, where the vehicle offering changes periodically.



Tuning Parts Shop

Pick up performance parts including tires, mufflers and more to increase your cars' performance.



Garage
Quickly organize and browse the over 1,000 cars included in the game. Pick a car, and tune and tweak to your heart's content, all from the Garage menu.

GT Auto
Hit the car wash, throw on new rims for a different look, or change the color with a new paint job for a nice change of pace. GT Auto is the place for car maintenance and exterior modifications.



Licenses

Learn and master a wide range of driving skills, from driving basics to advanced racing techniques for expert drivers.

Practice

Doing free runs on the track is a good way to practice driving techniques, learning difficult tracks, and testing and tweaking your car's performance characteristics.



Open Lobby

Anyone can join an open lobby, a custom race lounge to hang out, face new challengers, and make new friends. Since anyone can join, you never know who you'll meet. If you find someone you get along with and register each other on your Friend list, you can meet up in the private My Lounge racing lobby as well.



Photo Travel

Take your favorite car to beautiful locations around the world and take pictures with a virtual SLR camera with true-to-life camera settings. You can even walk around the environment to explore the surroundings and find the perfect vantage point from which to take pictures of your cars.



Photo Mode

After an intense race, relive the action with the race replay. Pause the replay to capture the most exciting moments and most dynamic shots of your cars.

whats wrong with you guys. I already said please give me some time to post things first. haih

Thanks for the update Polyphony!

I rike the Seasonal Online races especially the way the structure the prize credits. For example :

1st 100 cr
2nd 50 cr
3rd 5 cr.

If I finished second, I'll get 55 cr (2nd + 3rd). If I race again and finished 2nd, I will get nothing. On my third try, I won the race, so I got 100 cr.

Owh, I'm no. 3K something on the leaderboard (Cape Ring) with Golf GTI LOL

3 thousand something with golf gti at cape ring

Tonite gonna try finish the online event.

Come on fiat 500!

last nite i used stock fiat 500 and finished second. From what i read, people suggested that buy the FC transmission and set max speed to 78~80 kmh.

finaly won the fiat race wheee

this how i did.

1. Buy a sport air filter. give you 65hp
2. buy a FC transmission.
3. set your top speed at 150 kmh.
4. in the last lap you must be 5 seconds behind the leader.
5. you must do consistent 1.20/21 to win

the race is five laps. On lap five you must make sure you are under or 5 seconds behind the leader. if you are 6 or 7 seconds behind the leader in the last lap, its a bit harder for you to win

no problem.

Just gold-ed the CR-Z event. a bit easier than the Fiat event. The trick is to do constant 2.25 lap times

You will encounter mechanical damage once you earn higher level

yes. the one you encountered is probably the changing weather.

That reminds me of the 24hr race on Bspec that i did in GT4

that 24 hr enduro actualy took me 10 hours plus (Back in GT4, Bspec can fast foward 8x - but the game will reset the speed once AI went to pits). I just put a table fan next to my PS2. My PS2 still alive and kicking until now ! (now in its 7th year)
