But what are those 'Vision GT' cars exactly?
 
It's a very large and exciting project that director of the Gran Turismo series, Kazunori Yamauchi, had released back in the year 2013. With the 15th Anniverary Gran Turismo had to celebrate, it was this upperchief-carlover who had the idea to invite car brands and other multinationals to make a concept car for his game, just with the
 message ;  How do you see the future? No boundaries, just your 'vision' and let us enjoy your vision.
 Concept cars and Granturismo are a good combination that could celebrate this same anniversary.
 The first Vision GTcar was presented in January 2014, Mercedes released their vision of what a sportscar could look like in 2025. It is called officialy as the Mercedes AMG Vision GT.

But, was it really the first VGT ?

                                                     

The GTbyCitroen is designed by Takumi Yamamoto, a designer working for Jean-Pierre Ploué, at the Citroen Style team in Japan. It was back in 2003 when two former classmates working together, Yamamoto and... Kazunori Yamauchi. It was Kazunori who convinced Yamamoto and later Citroën to make the car one of the first new innovative concept cars in the history of GranTurismo.

The GTbyCitroën became the signature car for the fifth episode in the series and it was a blast to drive.
