Gran Turismo 3 A-Spec (2001)
Last time I checked you could unlock it via Gameshark, but isn't unlockable/winnable/buyable under normal circumstances in any version of the game, so it should be returned to Unplayable status.

Yeah that's Polyphony for you. A weird-ass car instead of the Diablo in the PAL version.

The name "Feroci" is an anagram of "Cefiro".

It's a C5 definitely. The rear is rounded, unlike the C6 which had a sharp rear end.

It's a damn shame this isn't in GT4 or GT5.

It was probably due to the fact they'd have to make another set of physics that's only going to be used on one car. They already had the Daimlers' fan on the bottom, the SLR's brake-activated rear wing and the Prius' electric power so Polyphony probably said "Fuck it" and didn't put the car in.

It actually is in the PAL version, but only available as a tuned Daihatsu Mira as the original body was deleted:

Judging by the paint scheme, it's actually a Proton PERT.
Sauber-Mercedes C9

Gran Turismo 4 (2004)
Like the other one, Mercedes-Benz was only the engine supplier, it was still called a Sauber.
Mercedes-Benz C291

World Racing 2 (2005)
This car was still known as a Sauber because it didn't become Mercedes-Benz until they returned in 1997. So this car should be called the Sauber C291 Mercedes-Benz.

Mercedes-Benz S-Klasse

The Simpsons: Hit & Run (2003)
Too powerful to be a 323 or Grand Marquis. The engine noise is clearly that of a V12, and it is very fast when you get it going, so it's a Mercedes-Benz.

A special hidden car only available through Gameshark or Action Replay on the PAL version. Legend has it that Esso got pissed off with Polyphony not paying them to use a car with their sponsor on it, and cancelled future sponsoring on any new video game, which is why there is now "Exxon" instead of Esso.

Way too modern to be either of those cars. I'm saying Mercedes S600.

Nissan Skyline GT-R

Gran Turismo 2 (1999)
The race mod for this car was quite odd; anyone could easily tell what the white bars with a yellow curve on a dark blue background was meant to represent, but that company never sponsored anyone outside of F1, WRC and Dakar.

Well, it does look like a slightly longer wheelbase version of the Ambra, but that seems to be the closest match IMO.

Really, this seems way too radical to be based on anything, so this is definitely a Made For Game.
