Two images of a mysterious new Mini bearing the Gran Turismo 6 screenshot logo were obtained by GTPlanet earlier today, revealing some details of a car from the iconic manufacturer which don’t necessarily match those of any of their existing models.
A John Cooper Works logo is prominently displayed in both screenshots, making it clear this is a performance model, but that’s really all we know. The unusual headlight and front fender rule out an updated Cooper or Clubman, and the details don’t line up with any recent concepts shown by the British car manufacturer, either.
We hope to learn more about the car soon – stay tuned.
See more articles on MINI.
Well i guess its not a VGT. This is an actually car with a new look.
I’m most certainly not one to hate on GT6 or say stupid things about new news and such, but…photoshop? Maybe someone just photo shopped the logo into the picture? Probably not, anyways, nice to see some brand new cars and features coming to GT6! Keep up the great work PD!
that would be pretty damn hard to photoshop, and I don’t think someone would go out of their way to troll the whole community like that… But hey, it’s the internet.
There’s been plenty of trolls on the internet that trick you into everything:D But new study’s show (on GTPlanet) that the car is in fact a VGT!
his official name is mini clubman vision gt
I like the recent news articles : )
Im sorry but after seeing the Lexus FT FC VGT car on sunday thats got my hopes up most.
Ugh….not a Lamborghini….
definitely Mini VGT, courtesy of John Coope Works.
If this is a VGT, then it may not be to far from reality, with Honda, Ford and VAG creating very aero oriented cars now/very soon.
Is there supposed to be a Mini VGT?
‘Obtained’ by GTP? Can we have clarification on your meaning of ‘obtained’ Jordan?? :)
He received them. The question is… “From where?/who?”
Things are looking up for GT6.
New cars
New track
New features
Possibly track creator.
All coming soon!
As long as it has an interior.
Following the pattern, if it’s closed cockpit, it will have no interiors.
Yeah , unfortunatly…
I don’t think this is a VGT, otherwise it would say so. In that case, if it doesn’t have an interior at launch, it’ll probably be updated with one somewhere down the line.
It’s VGT no doubt about it. It’s way to different from mini’s current style for road cars.
Although I’m more than likely wrong, I really hope this is a real car and not a VGT. Like a wide bodied coup even though mini has already stated they are not doing the coup anymore.
-> It could very well be a MINI Superleggera Coupe JCW for VGT. But I’m off my mark here…
My money’s on it being the Mini VisionGT. Hopefully a coupe with blistered arches I reckon…
Like others have said, it’s probably the Vision GT Mini.
A Mini John Cooper Works VGT. Not bad, lets just hope it drives great. :)
Yeah …looks like an updated Superleggera concept. Stunning car! One of my cars is currently a Z3 that I thought I would never ever sell. Current Roadsters are too heavy and oversized. The MINI Superleggera John Cooper Works though might just force my hand …
Maybe its a Vision GT version of this Mini
JCW version of the Superleggera concept maybe?
Update: Turns out it is Race-Mod hatchback.
somebody please slap me on my face!!!!
*slaps*
My faith in PD is being restored, hallelujah! Keep the new content coming!
PD is going ham!
And suddenly they’re releasing all these updates and news.. Could it be that Pcars and AC have awakened them and they’re now playing catching up?
It is possible that they are releasing a big update around the PCars release, but I seriously doubt PD even needs to know AC exists.
When Mini announce their VGT project i tough that we are going to see a Mini “GT300” version or a “Group B Rallie” kinda of car.
Probably The VGT version :-)
What’s up with all these updates lately,is it the end of the world?
Hehe, that’s exactly what I thought when I saw the heading of the piece of news… Seems that Christmas in PD’s headquarters is by the end of February…
Maybe feeling the threat of Project CARS on the Gran Turismo series?
No amount of cars, tracks and a pointless B-Spec mode is going to revive the bleeding corpse of GT6.
I like it. Keeping a glorious driving game alive and kicking
A wide bodied Mini ?
Possibly Mini’s VGT?
