I'm really leaning towards getting this game. Wonder if the console version will see any post release improvements.

I got the patch too and noticed 3 things without trying to look for it:

1. Time Attack added to main menu. YES!!!
2. Car Avatar load times are a tiny bit faster?
3. Track layouts have been revamped in the "track selection" screen.
