W208 in PS2 Gran Turismo 3

Was bored the other day so I was playing Gran Turismo 3. Haven't played it in a while (pretty much bought the game played it initially and left it there) but I noticed there's a CLK55 in it. So you can actually drive the W208 in the game, which I thought is pretty cool.

haha yeah its stock, and pretty realistic as it competes well on oval tracks, just gets destroyed on the turns, it has a REALLY floaty suspension in the game. i can never win much with the CLK. that game is awesome though, one of the few video games i play, that and Madden 2003.

Lol! I bought Gran Turismo just to be able to use the CLK in a game, and once I got good at it, I realized the CLK sucks (at least compared to my 800-1000HP cars )

The Toyota Supra is the best monster machine in GT3. I modded the Supra twin turbo to 1063hp (i picked a yellow one). I can just powerslide out of any corner i want.

oh yeah, the RUF GT3 is also a good car to use. Almost all the Skyline GTR i had in the game sucks on cornering. If you want to win races when you play against you friend the NSX type R is a must have. nsx type R is better than the S-zero because type R somehow allows you to put the stage 3 turbo on the car, and in the game, after mods, the NSX type R stick to the ground like it runs on the rail.

too bad, the designer of GT3 didn't design the car to allow damage.

Yes I am talking about Gran Turismo Concept.

The initial video for the game shows only a SL500, it is an amazing video. You need to see it.

XBOX OWNERS ONLY

For those of you who own an XBOX...

Mercedes-Benz has teamed up with Microsoft XBOX, and they're creating a racing game, similar to the fundamentals of Gran Turismo, but this game is based solely on Mercedes-Benz automobiles! That means, you can drive any MBZ out there, as well as soup them up to your liking! You'll have the option to drive anything from the C-Class to the ML-Class and even the SL55! The game is due out sometime in 2003, so stay tuned!!

Safet, you can also drive the CLK DTM car in Gran Turismo 3 ASPEC. I love how realistic the game is. Detail is unbelievable and I love how the Xenon lams are brighter than the city lamps. I actually purchased a PS2 just for that game and I got the logitech steering whell also.......nice addition for GT3.

GT3 Concept........which one are you guys talking about? I only thought there was a Tokyo concept. Now theres one for Euro?

I was at the grocery store buying beer and the male cashier kept giving me double and triple looks like he may want to see the ID as I don't look like I am in my mid-30s. Finally the kid says that I have seen that logo on your ball cap before but I cannot remember where. I was wearing my AMG 2002 Challenge hat that says nothing about MB on the front but has the tri-star on the back. I said it was an automobile company, Mercedes Benz.

Eureka! says the pimply face kid. I remember that license plate on a CLK!. :P I say Grand Turismo?! Yup!

the newer version, you can either clamp it to the coffee table. i cant do that sice mine is glass.
but they also have a lap attachment which lets the steering wheel sit between your legs. works well. i think they lowered the price to like 80 now for the logitechs.
