Trivia[]
- Lewis Hamilton's model, the 2009 Grand Touring Sports Special GBG, is based on the McLaren MP4 12C test car Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button drove in March of 2010.
- Miguel Camino's model, the 2007 Grand Touring Sports SS-E, is a fictional model influenced by several sports cars, but is primarily based on the 2008 Dodge Viper SRT10 ACR.
- Nigel and Jeff are the only GTS racing cars who are modeled after a particular car. Lewis and Miguel are fictional car models who are influenced by more than one car. For this reason, their models were named after the racing category in which they compete in, Grand Touring Sports. This is similar to Max Schnell's, Raoul ÇaRoule's, and Rip Clutchgoneski's naming scheme as they are named after their respective series rather than being given a specific car model name.
- The Saxon cars have GTSC (Grand Touring Sport Coupe) as part of their car model names.
