Concept art of the Blacksun J-GT.
The Ozutsu Blacksun J-GT is a Supercar featured in MotorStorm: Apocalypse. It appears to be front-engined, unlike the other Supercars, which are mid-engined.
Resemblance
The Blacksun J-GT resembles a Mazda RX-7 FD; if the hood is removed, players can see a V8 engine. This vehicle's body modifications (as well as the name itself) hint that it may be inspired by the Japanese Super GT/JGTC.
