Citroen GT


                                            Citroen GT.

The GT by Citron is a sports car that debuted as a concept car on October 2 at the 2008 Paris Motor Show. The car is a collaboration between the French automaker Citroen and the Japanese racing simulation developer Polyphony Digital. Six cars are expected to be built.

The amazing GT by CITROEN is the first ever car to be specifically designed to bring the virtual and real worlds together. The car makes its global premiere at the Paris Motor Show where visitors can actually drive the car in a true to life simulator on the Citroen stand.

GT by CITROEN a joint venture between Citroen and the makers of Gran Turismo was created for the eagerly anticipated 5th game in the multi-million selling Playstation series.
Citroen has confirmed plans to build the Citroen GT a two-seat sports car originally created for the virtual world of the Gran Turismo 5 racing simulator for the PlayStation 3. The car will be available worldwide said Anouk van Vliet a Citroen spokeswoman.

Despite being a volume car company  PSA Peugeot Citroen sold 3.26 million vehicles in 2008  only six examples of the GT are going to be built, with each mid-engine two-seater costing $2.1 million. For that price, you could opt for one Citroen GT or 35 C6 luxury sedans.

The carbon-fiber bodied GT was revealed last year during the Paris auto show. Its aggressive exterior  complete with gull-wing doors gaping air intakes and large rear diffuser  was a joint effort between Citroen and designers at Polyphony Digital creators of the Gran Turismo racing game series.
