It was confirmed via the US Playstation blog that Gran Turismo 5 will not make the 2 November planned release date. However, it was also stated that the game will still make it to market prior to the holidays. Of course with Christmas being a Saturday they could mean 24 December, though that’s unlikely.

From the very short blog post:

We sincerely apologize to GT fans for the delay, however, creator Kazunori Yamauchi and the team at Polyphony Digital want to make certain they are creating the perfect racing experience, and we are confident that this ambitious game will exceed expectations when it launches.

We’ll be sure to update you when an actual release date is announced.
