Sony's star racer gets an update based on the concept cars shown at the Tokyo Motor Show

Gran Turismo Concept isn't a full sequel, since it only has a relatively small number of cars and test tracks to drive them on, but the new motors certainly do look cool. It's out in Japan in January, at the impressively low price of '3,200 (a measly £18). There's no word on whether this special edition will get released anywhere else - we guess it's fairly unlikely, since the new cars won't mean much to audiences outside Japan. Fingers crossed though.

Those pods are a wheeze!

Apparently, you can make the trim change colour to reflect your mood :D
