Played the demo, and while the look and noise the game makes is superior, the feel is too arcade-y, doesn't match the look and noise.
Although it's fun to barrel into walls and other cars at full speed and watch the replays in slow-mo.
Plus I hate that there's a drifting mode.

Grid's physics were the worst of any modern racing game I've played.

I thought Grid had a fun feel. Not simmy but not totally arcadey...it was tuned to be less punishing, and let you pull off some tricky moves easier. More of a "cinematic" experience, if that makes sense to anyone else.
My biggest problem with Grid is that you seem to need a driving wheel for later races. The high-powered prototype Le Mans racers and similarly fast vehicles seem to be too fast for the steering through the thumbstick to respond. The other cars will have no trouble shimmying though certain series of turns, but you have to slow down to do the same things, and so on.
And the drifting events suck. I do like the Touge racing...they do that very well. But the drifting courses are boring and irritating. And the game had an awesome replay system, but no way to save replays.

I didn't think Grid's graphics were that bad. I definitely agree with Jay that it was between arcade and sim.
I did get annoyed as well with the LMS and Open-Wheel cars, it was just to difficult to stay on the track.
I got the hang of the drifting with the Rx-7, that's the car to use, you can pull off a shit ton of points. I don't think I leave 2nd and 3rd gear.
