One of the best aspects of video games is their ability to make people experience things they would never experience in real life—for example, games like Gran Turismo 6 allows players to drive performance cars, luxury cars, or even race cars that would otherwise be inaccessible to a significant part of the population.

Mercedes-Benz was the first to take on the challenge. The result was a beautiful, curvy sports car reminiscent of the 300 SL racing car featuring an AMG V8 biturbo engine. It cranks out 577 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque via an AMG Speedshift DCT 7-speed sports transmission for a weight-to-power ratio of 2.43 kg/HP thanks to its ultra-lightweight, 1,385 kg carbon-fiber body.
