Very well tuned controls. The cars react and feel exactly like their real-world counterparts. This game allows you to race all different kinds of cars from all different time periods. You can feel the differences in the way the cars drive. It is a robust driving simulator. You can even race cars that are so exotic, they were never produced (usually for legal or economic reasons).
Many different modes. There is the main stage races with lincense tests, the special event races, the chronicle races that take you through history, or the simple and standard time attack and quick race modes. The chronicle races are probably the most innovative part of this game. They detail the history of the auto industry, which is great for car enthusiasts, and they even have the color shift from black and white to color thoughout the races as an added affect.
Every car comes with it's own historical description that car enthusiasts will especially love. It also gives each car a history, background, and adds to its personality.
The cars can be modified in a variety of ways. You can tune, tweak, and upgrade all of your cars. It gives them more depth.
Top notch graphics and sound, especially with the engine sounds. All the engines sound a unique way according to that car.
Very well balanced gameplay. Not too challenging, not too easy. The difficulty level fluctuates wildly whenever you go up to the next stage. Each stage really is a new challenge.
The menus are really cool and have pleasing soundtracks.

Nothing really innovative. This is just like Gran Turismo. The game stays firmly within it's genre and doesn't go anywhere really new.
Some of the areas you race around in don't look and feel very interesting aesthetically.
None of the big name exotic car companies such as Firari, Lamborgini, and Porche.
Every time you change menus, it takes a few seconds to load. Traversing menus should always be instantaneous, and they are not in this game.
Many of the menu screens do not provide enough information. It should much more commonly display each car's manufacturer, class, year, and damage conditions. Other statistics and expanations should be displayed.
