Shift 2 Legends DLC a Cause for Celebration

I've become somewhat bored of DLC, especially as much of the rubbish peddled at us these days is just game content removed to sell back to us. Thanks an effing bunch publishers.
But sometimes you see some extra content that really seems worth the money and the Legends Pack for Shift 2 is just that.
Not only will we get 14 new cars, but we'll also get six classic tracks. And by classic I mean just that - Monza as it was in 1958 for example.
Check out the full details after the break.

It’s known as racing’s golden age. The late 1960s and early 1970s featured a dramatic range of race cars known for their powerful engines, technical handling capabilities and dramatic car designs. Beginning April 26, racing enthusiasts can experience the intensity of the driver’s battle in some of this era’s most iconic cars in the SHIFT 2 UNLEASHED™ Legends content pack. Players can purchase the Legends pack for 800 Microsoft Points on Xbox LIVE® Marketplace or £7.99 on the PlayStation®Network.
The Legends pack also features five of the world’s most challenging classic race tracks including the historic Rouen-Les-Essarts. Once recognized as one of Europe's finest circuits, this classic track has now been restored to its former glory in SHIFT 2 UNLEASHED.
