[[caption-width-right:350:The AMG Vision Gran Turismo, one of the well-known examples amongst the many other brands.]]
->''"Many manufacturers accepted our offer, and now there are many "ideal" Grand Touring cars represented in the game. Vision Gran Turismo, which began as project to celebrate the game's 15th anniversary, continues to bring together the automotive passions of you, the user, and the car companies. The cars have been introduced one at a time throughout the Gran Turismo series, and the project will only increase in popularity as more and more people sample these unique machines."''
-->--'''Description''', ''VideoGame/GranTurismo'' official website
The ultimate SuperPrototype made by the world's top automobile manufacturers for the video game series ''VideoGame/GranTurismo'', which are noted for using its very modern-day technology, aesthetics and aerodynamics, [[ExaggeratedTrope taken to its logical extreme]] and would also define a glimpse of the brands' future productions.
The Vision Gran Turismo name dates back in the 2006 SelfContainedDemo game, ''Gran Turismo HD'', before it would be fully utilized seven years later in ''Gran Turismo 6'' as part of the franchise's [[MilestoneCelebration 15th anniversary]]. The very first VGT that started it all would be the AMG Vision Gran Turismo ''(pictured above)'', made by Mercedes-Benz, which had BroadStrokes from the 300 SL, but with no rear window and an active rear spoiler. Another notable example would be the Bugatti Vision Gran Turismo which had a Le Mans prototype-style shark fin and active rear wing, large front splitter and side air intakes. Its body design would evolve into the production model of the Bugatti Chiron.
Many VGT cars offer in a wide variety of engine types ranging from internal combustion engines (ICE) from Peugeot, BMW, Mazda or Honda, to plug-in hybrids (PHEV) of [=McLaren=] Mitsubishi and Nissan, and even [[GreenAesop all-electric engines]] made by Hyundai, Porsche, Audi and Jaguar. There were also cars even made by non-automobile manufactures, such as renowned Italian luxury fashion house, Bulgari (BVLGARI).

* The latest, next-gen [[BigBad Jackson Storm]] of ''WesternAnimation/Cars3'' comes in a very unique body... he is a 2017 Custom-Built Next-Gen Piston Cup Racer, heavily inspired by the 2014 Nissan Concept 2020 Vision Gran Turismo, with lots of futuristic flares. No wonder this future-gen {{Jerkass}} is AlwaysSomeoneBetter...
[[AC:Film -- Live Action]]
* It's surprising that [[ProductPlacement the film has a deal with Mercedes]] to showcase their cars, and even arguably the first VGT to sever show in Hollywood. Bruce Wayne of ''Film/JusticeLeague2017'' picks up Barry Allen in a Mercedes Vision VideoGame/GranTurismo which wasn't intended for actual production and didn't even have a working prototype. They had to build the car from scratch and even expand the size a little to better fit the very tall Ben Affleck.

* ''Obviously'', where it all started, ''VideoGame/GranTurismo'' has Vision Gran Turismo models aplenty, which are {{Improbably|CoolCar}} cool concept cars built by numerous brands around the world, with performances that go beyond what man can exceed. There's lots to name that it spawned a "Vision Gran Turismo Trophy" event series dedicated to nothing but VGT models, and some would have Gr.1 regulated versions so they can also compete with the Le Mans prototypes.
** Of all the VGT models, the most honorable and memorable would be the godly SRT Tomahawk X VGT which has '''''over 2,500 HP''''', insane cornering and can go blast past '''''[[SuperSpeed 600 km/h]]'''''! Looks like ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill since you can take it to the "Vision Gran Turismo Trophy+" of ''Sport'' since the event has as absolutely ''no power cap''. Enjoy lapping everyone multiple times.
** While there's already the renowned AMG VGT, there's also the LH Edition, made by "the maestro" and seven-time UsefulNotes/FormulaOne champion Creator/LewisHamilton. Only shows up in ''Sport'' as a "Lewis Hamilton Time Trial Challenge" reward car, but sadly didn't make the cut in ''7''.
** Both the Porsche Vision Gran Turismo and the Mazda RX-VISION [=GT3=] Concept would be the VGT cars acting as the cover cars of ''Gran Turismo 7''.

** Don't forget the first VGT-esque car; the Lexus LF-LC based Emperor [=ETR1=]. Though it has a heavy inspiration to the Toyota FT-1, which is also another VGT, too.

[[folder:Ford Lotus Cortina]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ford_lotus_cortina.jpg]]
->''"The result of a Ford-Lotus partnership, the Cortina was originally called the "Consul Cortina Sports Special by Lotus." Future F1 World Champion Jim Clark drove this variant of the [=Mk1=] Ford Cortina to a first-place finish in the 1964 British Touring Car Championship."''
-->--'''Gotham Sport Comment''', ''VideoGame/ProjectGothamRacing 4''
Take TheAllegedCar from Ford and have another partnership do all the work... and you have is the everyday English 2-door family saloon of Ford in collaboration with high-performance parts from Lotus. And that is the Ford Lotus Cortina... or just simply... the Lotus Cortina.
Henry Ford II commissioned Lotus' Colin Chapman in building a Ford Cortina into something worth of its performance, and allowing it to be capable to give Ford a good reputation in the racing world. What Lotus did was take the existing Cortina and assigned Cosworth in building a Twin-Cam version of the 1.6 liter four-cylinder Kent engine, bearing 115 horsepower and nearly 1,600 cc.
The Lotus Cortina became active in UsefulNotes/{{Rallying}}, though the car was overshadowed by the success of the Ford Escort, due to the car's [[TheAllegedCar reputation for its unreliability]]. However it saw a light in touring car racing with 2-time UsefulNotes/FormulaOne world champion Jim Clark, winning the British Saloon Car Championship with this car in 1964.

[[AC:Live-Action TV]]
* The Cortina is the car that played a catalytic role in one episode of ''Series/{{Bugs}}''. That car belonged to Roslyn "Ros" Henderson, who has mysteriously vanished from the blue as the only remains of her is her submerged car that was found in a river. [[spoiler:The reason why? The following episode reveals a {{Flashback}} some terrorist [[PopTheTires shot her tires out flat]], causing her lo lose control and fall down the river. Thankfully, she survived.]]
* Quite spottable in ''Series/{{Heartbeat}}'' in one of the episodes, where the Cortina saw spotlight again after nearly 3 decades of inactivity.
* This is the car Potter was driving in ''Series/ThePrisoner1967'' at the near-end of the episode "[[Recap/ThePrisonerE13DoNotForsakeMeOhMyDarling Do Not Forsake Me Oh My Darling]], a white Lotus Cortina with a green flash.
[[AC:Video Games]]
* The Cortina is something you'd commonly find in ''VideoGame/{{Forza}}'', ever since its inception in ''Motorsport 4''.
* ''Lotus Challenge'' of course... adds this under the Lotus marque, despite that it's ''Ford'' that did the day job of that car.
* ''[[VideoGame/NeedForSpeedShift Shift 2: Unleashed]]'' adds this one and only 60's British Legends GT car in the lineup.
* ''VideoGame/ProjectGothamRacing 4'' adds this good 'ol Jim Clark classic to the lineup. The Cortina is one high tail-happy car, due to having high drifting stats on a low-powered G-Class car.
* Of all the 11 cars of ''VideoGame/RallyTrophy'', the Cortina is one of 'em.

[[folder:GT by Citroën]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gt_by_citroen.jpg]]
->''"The GT by Citroën is a concept car that was born from a collaboration between Citroën and "Gran Turismo". It drew much attention as soon as it was announced at the 2008 Paris Auto Salon, and the avant-garde design by Citroën designer Takumi Yamamoto was highly praised."''
-->--'''Description''', ''VideoGame/GranTurismo 5''
You already probably know this car is tied to the ''VideoGame/GranTurismo'' series. And actually... of course it is.
To explain this, the GT by Citroën is a concept sports car designed in collaboration with French manufacturer Citroën and Creator/PolyphonyDigital, the developer behind the ''VideoGame/GranTurismo'' franchise, unveiled in the 2008 Paris Motor Show. The exterior was designed by Takumi Yamamoto, who was the [[ChildhoodFriends childhood friend]] of the franchise's creator, Kazunori Yamauchi.
In-game, the car is hydrogen-fuel cell powered with about 780 horsepower, whereas the actual RealLife model uses a 646-horsepowered 5.4 Ford Modular V8 engine, the same engine used on high-end Ford Mustangs, Ford GT and later the Brabham [=BT62=].
In 2009, Citroën confirmed for this video game car to get the {{Defictionalization}} treatment, with production only in limited quantities, however rumors say production was allegedly cancelled in 2010 due to high costs (which was refuted since). A dream GT supercar of Citroën was only a mirage that never came to realize its dreams.

The name SLR is short for [[MeaningfulName Sport Leicht Rennsport]] (Sport Light Racing), a CallBack to the original 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR ''Uhlenhaut Coupé'', serving as inspiration of this car and the SpiritualSuccessor.
The car was offered in both coupé and roadster, with the speedster that followed after. It's powered by supercharged [=M155=] SLR V8 engine, generating 617 horsepower, mated to a 5-speed AMG SPEEDSHIFT R five-speed automatic transmission. Its reason the car had 5 gears is because a 7-speed transmission was too complex and would use more components.
In 2006, a new version of the SLR was introduces, as the Mercedes-Benz SLR [=McLaren=] 722 Edition, as the "722" refers to the victory of UsefulNotes/FormulaOne driver Sterling Moss who started the 1955 Mille Miglia with the 722 number (indicated with a start time of 7:22 am). It has 24 horsepower more than its vanilla SLR. A roadster followed the year after with the 722 S Roadster also unveiled. A limited edition SLR Stirling Moss, named after said Formula One driver mentioned above, uses a speedster styling, which didn't include a windscreen.

->''"The result of a Ford-Lotus partnership, the Cortina was originally called the "Consul Cortina Sports Special by Lotus." Future F1 World Champion Jim Clark drove this variant of the [=Mk1=] Ford Cortina to a first-place finish in the 1964 British Touring Car Championship."''
-->--'''Gotham Sport Comment''', ''VideoGame/ProjectGothamRacing 4''
Take TheAllegedCar from Ford and have another partnership do all the work... and you have is the everyday English 2-door family saloon of Ford in collaboration with high-performance parts from Lotus. And that is the Ford Lotus Cortina... or just simply... the Lotus Cortina.
Henry Ford II commissioned Lotus' Colin Chapman in building a Ford Cortina into something worth of its performance, and allowing it to be capable to give Ford a good reputation in the racing world. What Lotus did was take the existing Cortina and assigned Cosworth in building a Twin-Cam version of the 1.6 liter four-cylinder Kent engine, bearing 115 horsepower and nearly 1,600 cc.
The Lotus Cortina became active in UsefulNotes/{{Rallying}}, though the car was overshadowed by the success of the Ford Escort, due to the car's [[TheAllegedCar reputation for its unreliability]]. However it saw a light in touring car racing with 2-time UsefulNotes/FormulaOne world champion Jim Clark, winning the British Saloon Car Championship with this car in 1964.

The following episode reveals a {{Flashback}} some terrorist [[PopTheTires shot her tires out flat]], causing her lo lose control and fall down the river. Thankfully, she survived.]]
* Quite spottable in ''Series/{{Heartbeat}}'' in one of the episodes, where the Cortina saw spotlight again after nearly 3 decades of inactivity.
* This is the car Potter was driving in ''Series/ThePrisoner1967'' at the near-end of the episode "[[Recap/ThePrisonerE13DoNotForsakeMeOhMyDarling Do Not Forsake Me Oh My Darling]], a white Lotus Cortina with a green flash.

* ''[[VideoGame/NeedForSpeedShift Shift 2: Unleashed]]'' adds this one and only 60's British Legends GT car in the lineup.
* ''VideoGame/ProjectGothamRacing 4'' adds this good 'ol Jim Clark classic to the lineup. The Cortina is one high tail-happy car, due to having high drifting stats on a low-powered G-Class car.

->''"The GT by Citroën is a concept car that was born from a collaboration between Citroën and "Gran Turismo". It drew much attention as soon as it was announced at the 2008 Paris Auto Salon, and the avant-garde design by Citroën designer Takumi Yamamoto was highly praised."''
-->--'''Description''', ''VideoGame/GranTurismo 5''
You already probably know this car is tied to the ''VideoGame/GranTurismo'' series. And actually... of course it is.
To explain this, the GT by Citroën is a concept sports car designed in collaboration with French manufacturer Citroën and Creator/PolyphonyDigital, the developer behind the ''VideoGame/GranTurismo'' franchise, unveiled in the 2008 Paris Motor Show. The exterior was designed by Takumi Yamamoto, who was the [[ChildhoodFriends childhood friend]] of the franchise's creator, Kazunori Yamauchi.
In-game, the car is hydrogen-fuel cell powered with about 780 horsepower, whereas the actual RealLife model uses a 646-horsepowered 5.4 Ford Modular V8 engine, the same engine used on high-end Ford Mustangs, Ford GT and later the Brabham [=BT62=].
In 2009, Citroën confirmed for this video game car to get the {{Defictionalization}} treatment, with production only in limited quantities, however rumors say production was allegedly cancelled in 2010 due to high costs (which was refuted since). A dream GT supercar of Citroën was only a mirage that never came to realize its dreams.

* Both the 86 and the BRZ joined forces in ''VideoGame/WanganMidnight Maximum Tune 5''. In ''6'', the very first chapter shows Kou and Maa driving one.
