To kick off the FIA Championship in Sidney this weekend, Polyphony Digital unveiled the Aston Martin DBR9 in ‘Gran Turismo Sport’.
The Aston Martin DBR9 is based on the DB9 road vehicle and has been significantly upgraded for racing. However, an Aston Martin V12 engine continues to tick in the heart, with which you have participated in over 300 races and finished around 250 of them.
Other features include aerodynamic designs such as a smooth underbody, diffuser and rear wing, while the engine block and cylinder head come from the production version. With the V12 engine, the DBR9 still has over 600 hp.
