Citroën Creates Real Car Based on Video Game Version

Citroën has confirmed it will build six examples of a $2.1 million GT supercar based on the automaker's design for the PS3 game Gran Turismo 5, according to the New York Times.

The two-seater GT will feature gull-wing doors and a carbon fiber body. Chances are it won't include a real version of the virtual powertrain in the PS3 car: a 646 horsepower hydrogen fuel cell with an overboost function that generated 138 extra horsepower on demand. "That ultra high-tech powertrain will remain video-game fantasy," according to the report, although few details are available at this point.

Citroën will debut the GT at the Frankfurt auto show later this year.

I could never get these kind of cars in GT games primarily because I suck at GT games but I love them because they are so amazing, that's why GTpsp and 5 are probably day1s for me.

What i find amazing is that Citroen want to make a car what was in a game.

It goes to prove how big Gran Turismo really is.



                            

Pretty old news but nevertheless still cool.
