Do you think this new Mercedes-Benz AMG Vision Gran Turismo Concept will be released in game alongside more AMG models?

You may be on to something with that. Perhaps paid DLC will be packaged around each company's vision GT concept launching. Similar in principle to how Forza gives out a free car from each DLC pack.
 
It reminds me of the "Karmelion" (sp?) from GTA V.
 
The side-view of the Mercedes GT Vision car reminds me an awful lot like a stretched Corvette ZR1 (with gigantic wheels :D). I can't wait to drive it.
 
I'd be more interested to see Katy Perry's hooters, but this thread isn't about that either is it?
Theres a gOOgle for that :mischievous:

Looks like there may be two variations of this concept. One with the fixed wing may be a fantasy race car like the GT by Citroen?
 
Right now I can only think of two things coming from Mercedes for "Vision GT":

- Its rumored for a long time that a SLR AMG is in works. I could imagine this car being a some kind of SLR concept car. Its design reminds me of recent concept cars, like the CLA .

- Porsches/Ferraris/McLarens new halo cars come with crazy hybrid tech. Maybe Mercedes wants to show some advanced new e drive concept (or maybe F-Cell? Dont know if they dropped this project) because right now, they are loosing alot of mindshare to BMW (i3) and Audi (R18 e-tron), which are seen as more futuristic/innovative brands currently. Im quite sure the SLR will be a hybrid too or it will look to outdated to the LaFerrari/P1. As far as I know, cars like the SLS/SLR are mainly used for marketing purposes, I can't see MB developing a NA V8/V12 beast in this age. It would sell the same, but media would punish them.
 
Mercedes have to tap customers in the hot hatch category with the A45 before they can offer electric drive. I saw a base A180?(it wasnt the AMG). I know AMG here in Australia sell more than the base models.

I like that idea that there might be two versions of the VGT AMG.
 
Just saw the teaser, and I did this, with a photo of a 911

I think that gives an idea of the concept.

Great work man!👍 Please do this for the remaining concepts if they get the same type of first reveal:cheers: I knew it looked like stretched out 911:lol:
 
Johnnypenso, the resemblance with the 911 shape is uncanny. The car fit right there with few modifications.

If the next teaser gets the same reveal, I'll try to do the same.
 
It's no secret (SLS and SL55/65 aside) that I have never been a huge fan of Mercedes,but I must admit I am liking the look of this one concept.👍 credit where its due and all that.:)
 
Mercedes-Benz says one more day before the full reveal. I hope they mean tomorrow Sunday, not Monday.
 
If those are exhaust pipes, that will rule out full electric.

Can be a car powered by a hydrogen fuel cell, in which case the wheels will be driven by electric motors and the exhaust pipes will be used for the expulsion of water vapor.

In fact Mercedes is one of the pioneers in hydrogen fuel cells, which began to be used in prototypes 20 years ago.
 
Roll on tomorrow so we finally see this amazing looking Mercedes-Benz AMG Vision Gran Turismo.

It'll be the start of an amazing period for GT fans.
 
I surely hope that PD was smart enough to avoid making any Vision Gran Turismo cars with electric motors. Nothing is more boring than driving something that sounds like nothing!! Internal combustion FTW!:cheers:
