Del Sol LM edition?

[detroit-delsol]

Well today I was digging through some of my old
playstation games and I came across Gran Turismo 1, so
I said what the hell and decided to play it for a while. I havnt
played the game in ages so i was looking through the cars
at the dealerships and seen that they had the del sol s and the si versions to play in the game. I then checked in my garage that hold my cars and
i seen a special race version of it that i won called the "del sol LM edition'.
it says it is mid engine and rear drive, it looks like it was a legitimate
sports car that was created in real life. anyone know anything about it?

btw its weight is 1962 lbs and puts out 563 hp and is turboed.

LeMans?

i seriously doubt it was created in real life. however if it was, it would have involved some SERIOUS custom work. not to mention money. what size engine does the game say? does it say? if it were real id love to know that it was made with a c32 engine i think it is...thATD BE fucking SICK if it was.

ill take a look at the specs on it next time i play, the thing in
the game drives like a damn go cart and hauls serious ass.
i know it has a widebody conversion on it and other body
work. btw, anyone seen the "smaller" del sol they had in japan,
the honda beat? i saw one there last summer and was kind of
shocked because i just learned about it and i guess they are
pretty rare or something, i should have gotten a picture of it

[detroit-delsol]

i just the del sol LM on the gran turismo 4 car list too..

[soltrain]

some research on the honda beat

Mid-engine 660 cc 3-cylinder MTREC motor with 10,000 RPM red line!

Honda's 660cc SOHC 12-valve MTREC (Multi Throttle Response Engine Control) gasoline engine

i tell you what, that thing is small as hell when you see it in person.
if you thought a geo metro was bad, you have no idea lol.

sounds more like a motorcycle engine. its a regular .6 liter gasoline engine. if you thought geo metro was bad..

[soltrain]

lol they both have 3 cylinder motors ....my dad had the 3 cylinder geo hatch 5spd we made it 2 like 300k on that car that thing was the shit payed like 6 grand brand new like 4 miles on it

[detroit-delsol]

my last car just a few months ago before i got this del sol
was a 94 geo metro 5 spd, that thing was bad ass on gas.
the funny thing is insurance is cheaper for the sol then
the geo lol....

LM for Gran Turismo games is jus an excuse for them to make custom versions of the real car.
