Kazunori Yamauchi, President of Polyphony Digital Inc. had this to say about Gran Turismo 5:
“Gran Turismo 5 is an ambitious project, with challenges and complexities which have made it our version of the Apollo Space Programme!”
along with:
“When we created the original Gran Turismo back in 1997, we wanted to set a completely new precedent for the racing genre. With the technological leap onto PlayStation 3, our objective with GT5 was to create another great revolution which would not only satisfy our own high expectations, but would meet or even exceed the anticipation of the fans. Satisfying the loyal Gran Turismo followers is at the heart of all of our efforts, which is why it was such a difficult decision to delay the release of the game, and one which we did not take lightly. I can only apologise to everyone for making you wait so long, and I hope that when you try out the wealth of driving experiences available in Gran Turismo 5, you will not be disappointed.”

brand-new type (ISV-Prototype).
Wildgoat
The Wildgoat, designed mainly as a long-range weapons platform with limited defensive capabilities,
became popular among snipers and artillery specialists, for whom the ability to deliver a devastating
initial strike is worth more than a few sheets of extra armor.
ISV-Prototype
The ISV-Prototype was never mass-produced, and only a handful is known to exist. Built to push the
limits of military-grade hover units, the ISV-Prototype is able to field weaponry comparable to land-
based wanzers while still retaining the ability to move across impassable terrain.
