Kazunori Yamauchi has selected a 1953 Aston Martin DB3S as the winner of
Polyphony Digital’s Gran Turismo Trophy at this year’s Pebble Beach
Concours d’Elegance.
Owned by historic motoring enthusiast Brian Classic
of Cheshire, England, his DBS3 is one of the 30 cars which played a
very important role in the development of Aston Martin’s international
racing efforts between 1953 and 1957. The car produces around 225HP from
an inline-6 (check more history on the DBS3 at here).
Brian’s Aston joins the ranks of previous esteemed Gran Turismo Trophy winners, and will be digitally immortalized in a future Gran Turismo title.
