Toyota is coming out with a special offering of personalization and tuning options known as their G Sports Series. The first two cars available in the US with this treatment will be the FT-86 and the Prius.
Today, we offer you news that Sony is releasing Gran Turismo PSP for the new PSP Go platform as its flagship title and confirmation that Gran Turismo 5 for the PS3 is in the works.
Finally, after watching its XBOX 360 counterpart, Forza 2, release 'damage rendering' game play way back in 2007, we have real visual evidence that GT5 will provide full-on crash 'em and bash 'em action.
Last year, at the 2008 Paris Motor Show, the GTbyCitroen was unveiled in concert with the folks from Polyphony Digital, the creators of the award winning Sony PlayStation game Gran Turismo 5. This far-out ride came about from a collaboration between Citroen designer Takumi Yamamoto and Kazunoria Yamauchi, the head of Polyphony Digital. The Citroen GT was the fruit of their labor but was only supposed be a virtual car for the video game itself and never actually destined for the road.
It looks that Sony will have to pay Citroen some serious cash, since its PlayStation 3 game machine's sales will surely surge through the roof, when all Citroen's fans will rush to buy the new Gran Turismo 5 video game.
