I bought it last week, along with a Logitech Driving Force Pro driving gear set (which makes the game a hell of a lot more enjoyable!). The game's awesome - nice graphics, lots of fun, lots of tracks to race on, a few different modes of play.

Diva check out the other GT4 thread (called Gran Turismo 4), there's about 20 or so pages of stuff on the game.

If they make the licenses to difficult the game gets frustrating :(

The games not really drawn out as such, but it can get a tad repetitive if you don't have any money to use on your cars, hence having to do certain races over and over.

But there are tips you can do to win lots of money easily, WITHOUT cheating, so you don't get bored. There are tons of tracks, and even more cars, and if you race enough the licences are actually pretty easy. You just do them at your own pace, and try not get them all done before you've started racing.

I can honestly say this is the only game that has held my attention for such a long period of time. If you're a gearhead, the cars you win will make you smile, a lot! Graphics are good too, so it draws you into the game, along with great car sounds, and physics, I'd highly recommend it. As a two player game though, unless you've got two consoles, two tv's, and two GT4 discs, I wouldn't buy it to play against friends. Its strictly single player.
