So, after getting our hearts pumping with only five photos of the concept, Mercedes-Benz just released some footage of the Vision Gran Turismo beauty, getting us closer to paroxysm.

As you might already know, the Mercedes-Benz AMG Vision Gran Turismo is sporting the twin-turbocharged 5.5-liter V8 from the E 63 AMG S-Model and the CLS 63 AMG S-Model.

You will only have the opportunity to drive the virtual version of the car in the upcoming Gran Turismo 6 game, set to be launched on December 6 for Playstation 3.
