I bought the PS3 at launch just for this game.  The delays have sucked!  Gran Turismo and Civilization are my two favorite games series, both releasing new installments within a couple of months.  Its going to be an unproductive Fall/Winter for me!
I've already pre-ordered GT5 from Future Shop when they had a 10% web sale a few weeks ago.  I won't get it the first day, but that is OK, because the deal I struck with my wife is that I have to wait a few weeks, until my birthday, to play it.  That will suck, but I should be occupied with Civ 5 anyway.

What chair did you get?  I have the wheel and pedals, but think I will get a cockpit for this one.

Yeah, there are Nascar events and vehicles in GT5
The best thing added, IMO, is a realistic damage model.  You'll no longer be able to use hitting other cars as a driving strategy.  I hope this also adds a more complex currency element to the game for repairs, modifications, etc...
