Citroen has let slip another drip in the GT by Citroen reveal, and this time it’s a video showing off the dramatic shapes of “The Drive of Your Life.” Dig those mirrors, and the glasshouse swept back in monumental fashion. Whatever is pushing the car’s massive rims apparently needs a lot of air, with two raked scoops behind the canopy and two more on the sides ahead of the rear wheels. And the rear end of the car looks like — dare we say it — a tail… It’s Mach 5 if the car comes together like we expect, or platypus if it doesn’t. The Paris Motor Show reveal is in but a few days, and you can mark us down as officially excited. Check out the video after the jump and more teaser pics in the gallery below. Thanks for the tip, Nick!

More intensity: 4th Citroen GT teaser image

The cloak on the GT by Citroen has been pulled back again to reveal a little more sheetmetal. Call us crazy, but we have the feeling this car is going to put the “Whoa, that’s wild…” back into concept cars. This little corner shows off two vastly different personalities: look at the center structure and it could be any pleasant Frenchmobile — a 2CV even; scan out to the sides, and it’s got the kind of vicious appendages of a predator. Then there’s that diffuser hanging out there like an arctic steppe, mirrors that are 18 inches long, and a tapered rear end that can’t possibly stay planted without some aero aid on scaffolding. For all we know, the car could be hiding nine or ten other personalities, as well. We can’t wait to see it.

Citroen releases another image of the GT

The Citroen GT striptease continues with a more revealing image of what looks like a rip-snorting concept car. Huge tires, a ginormous front splitter meant to keep something seriously fast bolted to the ground at speed, enough front air intakes to break records, and that thing out back, which we thought were mirrors yesterday, must be a terrific wing. As they say in French, oh la la, c’est cool. Meant to appear in Gran Turismo Prologue, it will also be at next month’s Paris Motor Show, and so will we, so stay tuned. In the mean time, you can check out both high-res images in the gallery below.

VIDEO: Citroen and Sony release teaser of new GT

Citroen is teaming up with Sony to launch a new concept that will debut at the Paris Motor Show and be available in Gran Turismo Prologue on the Playstation 3. Sony has released one image of the cloaked concept and a brief teaser video (posted after the break) showing the low-slung coupe sporting a set of slit LEDs, massive fenders and a widened stance. We haven’t been able to coax out any details from our contacts, but if this Citroen GT doesn’t make in onto the road, at least we’ll get to experience it in the virtual realm.
