GT by Citroën

[alexwrc]

I recently received a mysterious message with a link to an image of a new car never seen before in GT.

According to the slogan, it's evident Gran Turismo is going to feature a special Concept Car by Citroën. Its proportions are quite sporty by the way...

​

I can't say too much, because I could compromise my source, but you can be sure this is not a fake.

We'll get further information soon, so stay tuned.

Ooooooooooooh...

 

[Suede53]

I need to make better friends and sources...

 

[Mt. Lynx]

Judging by the headlights, it´s not the already unveiled Hypnos Concept, so maybe a further developed concept of the 2006 C-Métisse? Stunning concept, that is, so that would be really cool!

 

[daan]

It doesn't look like a Citroen...

 

[TheCracker]

Maybe Citroen have bought Ginetta?

 

[Diego440]

yeah, it looks more like a mop

 

[daan]

It looks more like an XJ220

 

[Suede53]

It looks more like an XJ220

That's exactly what I thought. Makes the Citroen on the cover more suspicious...

 

[Rocket Punch]

PD announced that on their JP site since 8/30 with a teaser shot and video, but that is certainly a new shot that I have not seen before.

The car will be revealed at the Paris Auto Show in October.

I was just about to say, I wonder if this has anything to do with this...

Looks intriguing, I hope that GT5P will get some new cars added to it rather than having to wait on GT5, by which time cars may have been replaced by hover vehicles

 

[alexwrc]

Thanks Rocket Punch for the link. I've put it in the first message.

 

[Pupik]

Not to put anyone down, but that video was more "sneeze" than "tease".

Ah well.

 

[Danny]

I was hoping maybe C-Metisse but the back doesn't slope down enough.

 

[Shant J.]

I. Love. You.

 

[benzoboy]

The C-Metisse is probably one of the most original designs I've seen in ages. Needs a V8.

 

[Dave A]

I was hoping maybe C-Metisse but the back doesn't slope down enough.

It's not a concept we've already seen though. It could be, as was said earlier, a further development of the C-Metisse though. It may share may stlying cues.

 

[Zimmerd]

The first Citroën I'm getting curious about...
Looks nice at first sight.

 

[vanubermaster]

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuude

 

[turbomp301]

I think i see two skinny headlights shining through the cover

 

[HaylRayzor]

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuude

What does mine say?

Sweeeeeeeet!

 

[The359]

Maybe Citroen have bought Ginetta?

Ginetta is owned by Lawrence Tomlinson, the head of the LNT Group, Team LNT racing team, and Zytek Engineering.

 

[RacingFreak2k3]

What does mine say?

Sweeeeeeeet!

No, what does mine say?!

Duuuuuuuude

 

[Kryz11]

You guys think this car is a beast? A sports car? Oh common, its a Citroen, under those sheets its a 150 BHP FWD car hehe

I am just kidding, looks sweet for now

 

[alexwrc]

Mmm, do we want more?

​

 

[Shant J.]

Sweet Jesus... are you from PD, or have a source?

 

[Rumple Foreskin]

People have been talking about this for days. I don't know what "sources" you have but I'm not too impressed by them.

This had better be a picture of the rear of the car or it'll be eating pedestrians like a vac

The rest of the internet doesn't have that rear shot, so I'd say alexwrc wins 👍

Maybe we'll have a direct Ford GT competitor, certainly looks like it...
