I'm guessing he's planning on upgrading. Fanatec make some pretty good wheels as well. I'll probably just use my DFGT until it stops working for whatever reason.

I can't get the Fanatec wheel in India (since they don't ship it here) that's why going for DFGT, but in January I'll be back in Liverpool so before leaving India I'll be selling the DFGT and will get a new wheel when I get there.

Indeed. In Yamauchi's latest twitter session it was made pretty clear that there are 3 levels of visual damage in GT5 and no mechanical damage yet.
L1 - Standard Damage (scratches/deformation, standard models)
L2 - Premium Damage (dislocation, premium models)
L3 - Premium Race Model Damage (detachment, Nascar/Rally/RM models)
Unless someone has a better translation of the twitter answers, this seems to be the final word on damage.

L3 should have flipping too ?

I believe flipping is at Level 2, as seen here:

PSYCHO CRUSHER!!!!
Yeah, I saw that in the GAF thread. In the thread, you can find flying cars and funny rolls/flips in other racing games too.
Someone mentioned that patch 1.02 addressed floating kart issues. It looks like they have some more bug fixes to address. Surprised that the manufacturers allow them to show car flips.
I wonder how mechanical damage + visual damage would work together. I hope it won't take a big chunk out of my GT5 $$$ to repair. Someone in GAF mentioned that the manufacturers want the cars to continue to work no matter what happens (in damage). Juggling between difficulty, manufacturers' requests, and realism may be an impossible feat. If these are the terms, I'd rather they do it for official racing events only (i.e., Level 3 damage).

Yeah glitches will happen. It's clearly a random glitch and not a design flaw but you can atleast see that premiums will flip. I like this one the from Forza. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIeqSEVQzY8
That's probably a glitch in the driving physics or model, not damage.
This is an example of Forza's damage glitch:

I think the flipping may not be realistic. I wonder if they are required to land the car on its feet every time (due to gameplay or manufacturer demand).

Finally 2 of my favourite cars showed up in the used car dealership. The GTO twin turbo '96 and Jaguar XKR R performance. Now is just need to buy another twin turbo to get the paint colour I want.
I wish the opponents would scale in relation to your car's performance in GT mode. I'm looking for a good challenge only to find I'm winning simply because I have a better car, even when I compared it to what my most likely opponents would be before the race started.

I read somewhere on gtplanet that it´s a lvl 6 driver that posted that video...
Lookie, lookie what I found:

I didn't. Doing an engine overhaul and restoring body rigidity costs about the same buying the car used. Which is around 30.000 for the twin turbo, and 100.000 for the Jaguar. Buying a similar premium car would probably be cheaper then buying used and refurbishing. And they don't seem have suffered that much for being used cars.
You car always lands properly in Forza 3, no matter what it'll always land on its wheel....when it doesn't it probably means that something like this is happening.
I donno about how roll overs in GT5 works as per whether or not they disqualify you/end race if your car flips over and lands upside down.
Woah ! that's one big ass paddle shifter, anyways lets see how it turns up.
Its probably a replacement for the DFGT in which case it'll still remain below the high end wheels like G27 & Fanatech wheel.
