Gran Turismo 5's flagship vehicle hits the streets of London; we've got the video and all the details...


Emphasising the realism of the Gran Turismo series, Citroen showcased its concept car driving around the (real) streets of London in scenes that strangely mirror the virtual world of Gran Turismo 5. It seems the Gran Turismo series has always strived for realism, but now the real world is beginning to mimic the video game series.
GTbyCITROEN marks a collaboration between the French car manufacturer and Polyphony Digital. Although the Japanese game studio is no stranger to working with car manufacturers in the past, having shared knowledge on numerous Nissan models, the production process with Citroen marks a step further than anything they've previously offered.
The resulting GTbyCITROEN was reportedly first conceived back in 2003, as a result of Citroen's Japanese designer, Takumi Yamamoto, being a close childhood friend of Polyphony's Kazunori Yamauchi.
If you missed it on the streets of London, the GTbyCITROEN will be making an appearance at the Greenwood Festival of Speed between July 3rd and 5th.
Although, if you've got a spare £1 million TVG has heard rumours that suggest the concept car could be developed into a limited run production model. Strangely enough that would match the 1 million credits needed to purchase the car in GT5 Prologue!

I agree the long term playability of this game is very bad. Thats where we come in with ongoing leaderboards, championships and leagues.
There is a A&Q about our site here on TVG. Sorry I cant put in a link look for gt5-online 'dot' com

RUF is not associated with Porche, the cars may resemble Porches but there not made by Porche, and as GT5 has the biggest majority of its cars that anyone actually wants in standard form rather than premium (so far in 2 months there is no update to change any standard cars to premium nore has the game had anything done to fix the shadow problem, no car packs no track packs no additional features it really is quite poor from a high profile game not to get essential updates) the game is hoplesly dull and boring, long term GT5 fails thats why its not AAA.

wtf is going on, is everyone loosing the plot, car duplicating and racing are 2 different things and no amount of car duplication will make any cars go faster or slower, now if somone managed to mix say a bettle with the x2010 and some how maerge the 2 cars together so the bettle handled and went as fast as the x2010 but had the bhp stats of the bettle now that is cheating and having an unfair advantage but for car duplication to get the 1000 owned cars trophie it will take over 2.5 years as you can only gift 1 car a day, so again car duplication doensnt give anyone an edge online lmfoa.
