Production
Every figure says what it counts.
No production figures recorded yet.
History
The GT by Citroën concept was shown at the 2008 Paris Motor Show and was built to tie in with the Gran Turismo 5 game. In late 2010 Autocar reported a limited run of six cars at about £1.1 million each, with a Ford or GM V8. A later report said the plan had been dropped because six cars did not justify the development costs. No detailed specifications were released.
