Four new pieces of DLC are available now from the PlayStation Store for Gran Turismo 5 after getting the Functionality Update 2.0 last week.

The new 'Racing Car Pack' includes a new iteration of the Red Bull X2011 and 11 new cars from Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Toyota and Dodge as well as three new bespoke karts. Next up is the 'Course Pack' which includes one of the Mecca's for petrolheads, Spa-Francorchamps. Also included in the pack is a new indoor karting arena.

A new 100-colour set of paints, that include new matte, chrome and polarised colours, makes up the 'Special Paint Pack'. Lastly the 'Racing Gear Pack’ includes special racing gear with 25 new Gran Turismo design helmets and 15 race suits as well as new Simpson helmets and Alpinestars GP1 race suits.

All the DLC listed above can be bought as one as part of the ‘Complete Pack’ for €11.99, or for PS Plus members for €8.99 for the first month.

The seperate prices for the DLC are as follows:

• Racing Car Pack - €7.99
• Course Pack- €3.99
• Racing Gear Pack - €1.99
• Special Paint Pack - €1.99

“I was clear from the launch of Gran Turismo 5 in November last year that the game would continue to develop over time,” explained creator Kazunori Yamauchi. 

“This new DLC, combined with the recent Spec 2.0 functionality update, will enhance the GT5 experience for our hard-core fans as well as those new to the game. In the same way that many of the changes in Spec 2.0 were driven by feedback from our community, much of the new content was also created as a result of their suggestions. I am particularly pleased to see the wonderful Spa-Francorchamps circuit make its full debut on Gran Turismo. It will be a lot of fun.”
