That little bit you can see looks a bit like an Aston. I look forward to seeing the whole car.

hmm
gotta turn on the ps3, and see if I can figure out how to d/l it :) (if its available yet...)
Looks nice from the two pictures posted, if only I had a PS3.

I need a PS:angry:
Well, I am torn between loving GT5P and hating it.
The driving part of the game is great, and the Gran Turismo TV part is great - but the the $2.99 and $1.99 PPV for the video content is a crock of shit.
Why would I buy the Topgear Episodes for $1.99 each, if I only get to view them for 28 days after purchase? What a load of crap... and the Optio, D1 and BestMOTORing videos expire after 365 days.
I cant imagine many people buying more than 1 or 2 videos out of curiosity only. I am only interested in the BM R35 Tsukuba Battle... but not if it expires in 1 year.
This Citreon better be a great driver, to make up for the ugly face hehe
In a unique twist, it looks like the video content can be downloaded using the native torrent client on the PS3... what an irony ;)

Citroen has made some amazing concepts in the last few years, so this has a potential of being really cool!

some angles, the car looks very exotic, and perhaps even cool. It's wild.
But, as an overall package, it really doesn't have much in the feasibility area. Nor look good from some important angles... The citreon badge is too big, ruining the grill too :P

Erghh...looks like an spaceship for me.
Big props to Citroen for trying something cool with car design!:thumbup:
....unlike some established exotic car companies like Ferrari.....Lamborghini:thumbdown:

It's not supposed to be feasible!

Like the Furai, it definitely is good that somebody is making wild concepts out there.

^Furai is probably my favorite concept car of all time. (unless I get to see the Pininfarina Birdcage somewhere) It's so wild in real life. It's a shame that they'll lock it up in a warehouse somewhere.

Has anybody driven it yet??? I've bought the Lotus and the ugly duckling, but the Citroen (for the moment is a little out of my price range, as I spent all my credits on other cars).

yeah, 1 million is not exactly pocket change. and I don't want to sell my F1 car for that.

Yeah...I've accumulated every other car in the game (some more than once to have a couple of color variations...), but I don't really want to sell any of them to get the Citroen...ah well...back to online-racing I suppose.

It drives a bit stupid.
It is ridiculously fast.... 1800 ish torques, and 700 or 800 hp, awd, one gear, and tons of downforce.
its a car that's only use is to win some easy money fast.... and that is about it.
Still, it looks rediculous awesome :)

For that, you should get the latest incarnation of F Zero, or Wipeout if that one still exists LOL
love it!
