The Nissan GT-R has long been heralded for its astonishing power and speed. With its singular focus on exploring the upper limits of performance, the sought-after NISMO variant sits near the top of the totem. Nissan engineers went some way to push those parameters, with the NISMO-tuned car able to launch from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.2 seconds courtesy of its twin-turbocharged 600 horsepower, 3.8-litre V-6 VR38DETT engine, backed by a paddle-operated sequential six-speed dual-clutch gearbox.
Every NISMO upgrade from standard GT-R configuration is designed to enhance the driving experience. Highlights include the redesigned front bumper, engine undertray, and carbon rear spoiler that increase downforce, while racing-tuned suspension maximises agility. Only produced in small numbers in Tochigi, Japan, its engine was hand-assembled in Yokohama.
The well-presented example offered is finished in Pearl White, one of only three exterior colours that were available, and showcases a cabin enhanced with traditional NISMO touches including Recaro seats, an Alcantara-trimmed steering wheel designed to optimise grip and feedback, plus abundant red detailing. The car was first delivered to Spain as one of only very few EU-spec NISMOs, and was well looked after by its first owner, before the consignor bought it in 2021. It comes with an array of documents, including a set of manuals and its service book.
The ferocious performance of the GT-R rightly earns the model its “Godzilla” nickname, and the fire-breathing NISMO is surely king of the monsters from Japan.
