A member from GTPLANET sent an email to Kotaku because they wrote in their preview that all cars in Gran Turismo 5 have a cockpit view but the standard ones are not as detailed as the premium ones
"Standard Car" does not correspond to the interior view.Update read 1st page - GTP Forums

I just recieved a reply to my email regarding the Kotaku GT5 article. This is what I wrote (I apologize for some minor brown-nosing :
Hello there .
I've been following your website for quite a while now, and all I can say is thumbs up! .
I just read your E3 article on GT5, and I have one question, if you don't mind .
It's about this segment of the article:
"The developers have created fully modeled interiors for the Premium cars, as well as doing detailed modeling for the car's undercarriage and even the exhaust pipes! The Standard cars apparently won't have the exact interior modeling. For example, an Enzo's interior will look like the real deal, but your typical Mustang's will look like exactly like Mustang's."
Maybe you have noticed, but there has been quite a lot of fuss regarding the recent announcement of Premium and Standard cars in GT5, and if the latter have cockpit view or not. What you write in the above segment indicates that the standard cars do indeed have a cockpit/dashboard view, just not nearly as detailed as the premium cars.
Could you by any chance clarify this? Because according to some other articles, it suggests that the Standard cars don't have any form of cockpit/dashboard view. So do the standard cars have some sort of a cockpit/dashboard view? Also, if you happen to know, are the Standard cars simply upscaled GT4 models, or have the car models been improved so thy don't look out of place in a race with premium cars?
If you have the time and info to answer those questions, I (and probably all of GTplanet.com
) would be really thankful .
Best regards
And this is the reply I got:
"What you write in the above segment indicates that the standard cars do indeed have a cockpit/dashboard view, just not nearly as detailed as the premium cars."
That's correct. And that's why I wrote it.
