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 )

 

You can use the new SL500 & SL55. Great Cars to drive.

would you be talking about GT3 Concept? cuz A-spec doens't have SL's in them

 

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.

 

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

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!

That is the coolest grocery store clerk I've ever heard of in my life

 

Hey MACH430 why dont you email sony and see if you can get them to feature some of the kleeman tuning options in GT4? and make your car even more famous?

 

Logitech steering wheel? Do you have to bolt it down to your coffee table?

 

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.
