I don't think its GT with mods. On one picture I could clearly see Shelby sign on rear end.

but that doesnt mean that if you buy a whole Shelby body kit for the Mustang that a new emblem is not included. could also be an unlock

Hahaha I would whip you Arin.... ....(the guy bowing is you)....
But you know what sucks....looks like NFS Carbon on PS2 will have no online support...which means Joel the poor college student needs money for a XBox 360 so he can play online....130 dollars approximately....plus the price of the game...that equals 190 $$$.....but im makin' 80$$ tommorrow ..........

Got the demo off XBL, pretty cool game, the handling will take a little getting used to, but I dig that they have a whole "Muscle" class (Muscle, Exotic, and Tuner *cough*ricer) are the categories. In the demo you start with a Camaro SS, a Lambo, and an Evo.

From what I've seen so far, no. I'll see once I play the full game though.

I just got the game, I'm still getting into it but I'd give it a 7.5/10 so far.

It's a solid game, but a lot of the elements of the game seem hollow. The free roam is pretty pointless since everything can be accessed from the menus. Strangely you have to be in free roam to warp to the car shop. The cop chases don't seem to serve any purpose, and don't have cool down spots like in MW.

All that said, the handling is what you'd expect, and the muscle car class is sweet, you can start off with a classic Camaro SS, and I just unlocked the S197 Mustang GT, just have to save up game credits for it. The Sculpting feature is pretty cool, you can choose how Gaudy or subtle you want your mods to be.

My semester finally ends next week and I really wanna buy good game.
I'm thinking either NASCAR 07 or NFS Carbon.

What to do, what to do ...

bought the game... love the game...
most of the other nfs games i've played such as NFS: Most Wanted it was a little unrealistic as far as in driving. But man this one i think nailed it in every perspective... along with they introduce the 2009 Camero... Runs nice... Aslo you can autosculpt, you can chop top your mustang for aerodynamics and other body parts...RIMS,Bumpers, Skirts, Hood, and So Forth..

oh we'll thats my .02 cents

I found Carbon to be a letdown compared to Most Wanted...the career mode is short, with little story line, and gets freaking hard out of nowhere....and the Autosculpt is a cool idea but not when they give you a bunch of dumb body kits to work with....................IMO
