2017 Nissan GT-R Nismo Is Up for Grabs in Japan

View

The Nissan GT-R Nismo is an iconic model and one of the fastest sports car in the entire world, and there are only a bunch of other high-end models to dare messing up with its brutal force.

The 2017 GT-R Nismo is the updated version of the last year`s model, the car being available for sale in Japan from 18,700,00 YEN, which is approximately $186,342.

For that price, you get plenty of exclusive body styling bits from carbon fiber, like front bumper, updated canards and mesh pattern, dark chrome V-motion grille, reinforced hood and so on.

Exclusivity is the attribute that highlights the interior as well, the cabin coming with a sporty feel, complemented by the carbon fiber center console and updated dashboard, steering-wheel with paddle shifters, Recaro carbon fiber bucket seats all wrapped in fine leather with Alcantara inserts, Alcantara center armrest, as well as the brand-new Display Command Control with plenty of functions.

We already know that the Nissan GT-R Nismo is an extremely powerful sports car, and the 2017 is no exception. It comes with an upgraded 3.8-liter V6 engine, which is now producing 600 horsepower with the help of a six-speed dual-clutch transmission. This would be a significant 30 horsepower increase.

On top of that, the performance is achieved also thanks to the updated shock absorbers, custom stabilizers and springs. Unfortunately, there is no word on the car`s new power figures, but we should expect fresh news in the upcoming period.

The big surprise is that the Japanese carmaker is also planning to introduce a hardcore version, called the “Track Edition”, which is said to come with a more potent powertrain and tuned-up mechanical bits.
