Everybody who's played Gran Turismo remembers the 1886 Benz Patent Motorwagen from GT4 and wants it back. So, If PD brought it back this car could be a fellow competitor: The Production model Patent Motorwagen of 1888 (MK 2 Motorwagen): It was a vast improvement over the first Motorwagen. It had an upgraded engine, wood spoked wheels, headlamps, a front rear facing seat, manual leather brake shoes on the rear wheels, a folding convertible roof, and a 2 speed transmission vs the 1 speed in the 1886 model so it can climb hills. It also was more fashionable looking (for the time). This car is famous for the world's first road trip. Bertha Benz went to see her mother with her two sons and took a 60 mile journey in 1888.
Engine: 954 cc 1 Cylinder 2 HP
0 - 60: N/A Top Speed: 12 MPH
