Infiniti Concept Vision GT Becomes Reality
The Infiniti Concept Vision Gran Turismo has been pulled from the virtual world into reality.
The Japanese automaker held its first Infiniti Design Night ahead of the 2015 Shanghai Auto Show last week at the Shanghai Himalayas Art Museum and on display at the event was the Concept Vision Gran Turismo. It marked the first time the Infiniti Concept Vision GT was displayed as a real “flesh and bones” concept car, having lived inside the PlayStation 3’s Gran Turismo 6 until now.

According to Infiniti, the “fluid movement and the delicate gradation of the body are inspired by traditional Chinese calligraphy and landscape paintings, while the character lines uninhibitedly flowing through the car reflects the dynamism of China.”
The Infiniti Concept Vision GT was originally introduced last December in virtual form and has been available for download in Gran Turismo 6 since.
“The Q80 Inspiration, the Q60 Concept and the Infiniti Concept Vision Gran Turismo are all thematically different,” said Alfonso Albaisa, Infiniti Executive Design Director. “Yet the same thread of handcrafted artistry weaves through them, and they all speak with one Infiniti design language.”

Nice as a concept. But who ever actually owns one of this in real life deserves to get keyed.
Could never drive this in PA. Imagine hitting a pot hole in that thing?
