GT Sport

This car can be purchased in the Volkswagen section of Brand Central for 450,000 Credits. It can also be obtained by signing a Manufacturer's Series contract with Volkswagen, which is valid for one Manufacturer's Series season and allows the car to be used in Manufacturer's Series races.

Trivia

  • The car's listing as MR is incorrect, as an official illustration of the regular model confirms the car's engine location is located in the front, and therefore should be listed as FR (front engine, rear wheel drive) to remain within Gr.3's rear-wheel drive requirement. In addition, there is no room for the engine within the middle-to-rear end of the car and the hood has air vents in it.
  • Unusually for a Gr.3 car, the car has an open cockpit; this was because the base car was Volkswagen's only choice as their Gr.3 car in early stages of the game's development before the Beetle Gr.3 was finished later.
