All New 2012 Nissan GT-R

The 2012 Nissan GT-R has been developed under the theme of the 'World's best multi-performance and pleasure of responsive driving'. The exterior features more strength and stability, while the traditional creative flair associated with the GT-R's striking appearance has also been updated, to offer improved aerodynamics. A sportier interior complements the enhanced design.

Engine output is significantly improved to 530PS (390KW)/6,400rpm, with the maximum torque of 612Nm from 3,200 to 6,000 rpm. The engine cover is, enigmatically, painted red to illustrate its enhanced performance.

By adopting an ultra-low precious metal catalyst and an engine control module fitted with high-capacity microprocessors, cleaner emissions have been achieved. Fuel economy has also been improved by modifying the boost pressure of the turbocharger, valve timing and air mixture ratio along with larger diameter inlet pipes and a modified exhaust system.

SAVE mode is a newly-adopted system, replacing 'snow Mode', which optimises driving torque and modifies the gearshift schedule to improve fuel economy when driving on motorways or open roads. The features of Snow Mode are also retained.

Standing start performance can now be maximized through the use of R mode. To activate, the driver must select R mode, depress the brake whilst in gear, apply full throttle and release the brake as soon as possible. The system will monitor oil temperatures to ensure reliability is maintained and prevent further use if the temperatures rise above the maximum allowance.

Exterior and aerodynamics

Even with a more intense and stable chassis, the Nissan GT-R's world-beating aerodynamic performance has been further improved. Downforce has been increased by around 10%, while a co-efficient of drag is further reduced from 0.27 to 0.26.

Stability is improved by an enlarged bumper and grille openings, with increased three-dimensional effects.

The front bumper has been redesigned, with double rectifier fins which increases front downforce by around 10%, while reducing air resistance inside the engine compartment and also increases the air flow through a radiator which cools the front brakes. Each side incorporates an LED daytime running light fitted with a large-diameter reflecting surface emitting a high-intensity white light.

A newly-designed rear bumper with a low center of gravity has been created and features a sculptured lower part with an extended rear end. By extending the rear diffuser, underfloor cooling performance is enhanced, with reduced air resistance.

Cooling performance for the rear exhaust silencer is improved and rear downforce is increased by about 10% by introducing a rear bumper air outlet, which removes air in the rear wheel housing.

The four tailpipe finishers have also been enlarged.

A high-intensity LED rear fog lamp is now incorporated within the extended rear diffuser.

Six exterior colors are available, including two new colors - Metallic Black, replacing solid Kuro Black and Daytona Blue replacing Titanium Grey.

What's the difference between this and the previous version?

[Autofanatic28]

@GamerAndReviewer better aerodynamics, new carbon fiber strut bar, different suspension setup, engine tuning is different, and the list goes on and on. I can understand if you think its just minor changes by the looks of it but there are major ones and some minor tweaks to the interior and logic setup. also, better acceleration off the line.

[yooyataplok]

what matters is if you can afford to have it now and enjoy it... if not, will you able to afford that better GT-R in 10 years time... it also depends on how people love their cars... even if it's an old/retro model...

[Autofanatic28]

@yooyataplok That's true but things do wear and tear as I drive mine everyday to work so I take that also into consideration. 

[evilguigui21]

you know...in 10 years this beast will cost 20 000$

[Autofanatic28]

@evilguigui21 yea that's true. but within 10 years this machine will be so far outdated and a even better GT-R takes it place.

[Autofanatic28]

@cmanclan101 no its not. If you know the history you wouldn't be saying that.

[Autofanatic28]

@cmanclan101 oh yes it does. It's not all financial support.
