Reiza Studio continue to add new content while improving and refining their racing sim as Automobilista 2 V1.0.6 adds the BMW M6 GT3 and Ginetta G55 GT4. Along with some big changes to the physics and AI in the game.

The changes mean you’ll want to reset your setups to default in the in-game garage menu to allow the physics improvements to take effect. And it’s worth doing with a whole host of adjustments to a wide range of the Automobilista 2 car list.

Given the amount of updates and new content, Reiza Studios has also released a nice video to highlight their recent work. Including the GT3, GT4 and Porsche Carrera Cup Brasil cars, the Nurburgring Pack DLC, and lots more.
