Let's get to know about the legendary cars that are hard to get in Gran Turismo 7's Legend Cars not only because of their extreme rarity that appears once in a blue moon but also their outrageous price tag that takes almost forever to save one. Today, let's get to know about the Abarth 1500 Biposto Bertone B.A.T. 1, the Gran Turismo Trophy winner from the 2010 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.
Created by the collaboration between Carlo Abarth and Franco Scaglione, the Abarth 1500 Biposto was displayed at the 1952 Turin Motor Show and was the first of the B.A.T. series designed by Bertone in the 1950s. Underneath its futuristic styling lies a 1.5L Abarth-tuned engine producing up to 73HP of power. A little-known fact is that someone from the United Kingdom managed to unearth the hidden Abarth 1500 Biposto, restored it, and then showcased it at the 2010 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance where it won the Gran Turismo Trophy award.
The Abarth 1500 Biposto will have a quick lap around the Goodwood Motor Circuit but how fast will it go? VTR, start!
It did it in 1:55.705. Kind of slow for a vintage Italian sports coupe but it managed to finish a lap surely. Well, almost surely. Slowly but almost surely.
What other hard-to-get legendary cars should I drive next? Stay tuned for more.
