Lexus shows off Gran Turismo racer

Lexus LF-LC GT Vision Gran Turismo digital car due for spring release.

What's the news?

As the Gran Turismo PlayStation racing game series gets ever more popular, the manufacturers become more interested. A variety of big names from the automotive industry were asked to create 'Vision Gran Turismo' cars for GT6 - bespoke designs that only exist in a digital world - and this is the effort from Lexus, which is due out in spring 2015.

The Lexus LF-LC GT will be a free update when upon release and takes it inspiration from both the RC F GT500 real-world racer and the LF-LC Detroit Motor Show concept car displayed in 2012.

Anything else?

The Lexus LF-LC GT Vision Gran Turismo features some of the Calty Design touches of the concept car, such as rear lights inspired by the afterburners of a fighter jet, which are pretty cool.
