GT by Citroën

[Jay]

That is one FAST car going by the speeds it is doing.

Especially 212km/h on that part of Eiger reverse, also note the car is in "D".

Do we say it's definitely gonna be in the update?!

 

[fafat]

the incar view doesn't looks very playable because of this huge windscreen frame !

Sony UK's website says

"Motoring enthusiasts can even take it for spin when the virtual model, which drives and handles exactly like its real-life counterpart, becomes available for download in Gran Turismo 5 Prologue."


So I would imagine so.

It's been in GTTV for five or six days now so I doubt it.

I've merged the two threads containing pics of the new GT by Citroën concept car, to keep everything in one place 👍

 

[Fruitcake]

But this will be a GT5 car?

Reminds me of a Stormtrooper helmet, even the mouth is a Citroen logo shape.

Before you fanboys flip your wigs, there was even a 2007 Dodge Avenger Stormtrooper actually based on one at Sema. Not as good as this Citroen though.

What an ugly car. Looks like something out of a really bad arcade racing game.

 

[waggles]

Wow-never thought of that before.

Wonder if there was something to do with this?

Love the use of the contrast in the car; those black side mirrors are sweet.

It looks like it's sitting on a WipeOut track here %)

 

[waggles]

I agree. Fantastic looking machine there.

They're joking, right?

 

[RR2008]

Do I look like a Citroën?

Maybe we also get Top Gear's test track, and this is the Stig's new helmet?

 

[blinky77]

I want specs - that car has to have at least 450HP to do 300 km/h at the High Speed Ring as seen in those screenshots. Me Like.

 

[waggles]

Hydrogen Power-that's all we've got.

 

[HaylRayzor]

The track suits the car. Both are pure fantasy.

I posted some pics in the GT5P Paris Autoshow link above.

Sorry guys but this hideous beast looks better under the RED Cover

Personally, I think it really is an amazing car - quite radically different, you know? Besides looking like a stormtrooper's helmet, it really is a new idea in car design, not just a rehash of someone else's ideas. Good for them!

However, every time I see one of these single-car or single-make GT demos, I remember what Kazunori said before the GT4 release. He listed all the manufacturer demos that they had done in the 2 years before GT4 came out, and he said that it really cut in to the development time of GT4 a lot.

I wonder how many total man-work-days it took for PD to design and create the car and the demo for Citroen... That time doesn't come free you know. In the end, that equals a push elsewhere in timelines for other updates and for a final GT5.
