This is the 2009 Nissan GTR at the 2009 News and Record International Auto Show in Greensboro, NC. Available in limited quantities, this is sure to be a collectors car! It's beautiful as it is fast.

Between 1969 and 1974, and again between 1989 and 2002, Nissan produced a high performance version of its Skyline range called the Nissan Skyline GT-R. This car proved to be iconic for Nissan[6][7] and achieved much fame and success on road and track. The Nissan GT-R, although no longer carrying the "Skyline" badge, has heritage in the Nissan Skyline GT-R. Like the Skyline GT-Rs R32 through R34, the Nissan GT-R is all-wheel drive with a twin-turbo 6 cylinder engine; however, the evolutionary, incremental changes between Skyline models R32 through R34 have been done away with. The four-wheel-steering HICAS system has been removed, and the traditional straight-6 RB26DETT engine has been replaced with a new V6 VR38DETT.[8] Because of the GT-R's heritage, the chassis code for the all-new version has been called CBA-R35,[9] or 'R35' for short, carrying on the naming trend from previous Skyline GT-R generations

The Nissan GT-R is powered by the VR38DETT engine, a 3,799 cc (3.8 L; 231.8 cu in) DOHC V6. Two parallel Ishikawajima-Harima Heavy Industries (IHI) turbochargers provide forced induction.[15] Production vehicles produce a manufacturer-claimed engine output of 480 bhp (360 kW) at 6400 rpm and 434 lb·ft (588 N·m) at 3200-5200 rpm.[16] According to independent dynanometer tests, the GT-R produces 416 hp (310 kW) to 475 hp (354 kW) and 414 lb·ft (561 N·m) to 457 lb·ft (620 N·m) at the wheels.[17][18] The engine also meets California Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle (ULEV) standards.[19] A curb weight of 1,730 kg (3,800 lb) or 1,736 kg (3,830 lb) with side curtain airbags is achieved using a jig welded steel chassis with aluminum used for the hood, trunk, and doors.[20] A rear mounted 6 speed dual clutch semi-automatic transmission is used in conjunction with the ATTESA E-TS system to provide power to all four wheels and along with Nissan's Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC-R) aids in handling and stability. Three shift modes can also be selected for various conditions. The drag coefficient is 0.27.[21]

  • 2008 nissan gt-r not 2009. 2009 has nissan imprinted on the brakes instead of brembo

  • hmmm I did no know that, guess I better change the title lol, the minor things that manufactures change haha

  • I want one so bad, it is an amazing machine, do you think that they will build GTRs with the steer wheel on the left?

    I would buy one, even if it is a little used, I am an student, but I will soon will go to the University, so, do you know if you can buy them in latin america?

  • Oh I have no idea, I'm sure they will be over there soon enough but I am not positive.  This one is on the left, unless you mean on the right?! I do believe that the car will be offered both ways depending on where you live

    Transmission

    6-speed automatic dual clutch transmission

  • Oh Man this is funny I actually know the guy who owns this exact car, I've driven it, crazy shit, what are the odds. HOLY COW.

  • @mukandy23

    Yeah, but worth it since it beats Porsches, Lamborghinis, Ferraris and even the Bugatti Veyron (with some modifications).

  • I guess I'm a Skyline-phobe. Nice lines, but the biggest most reckless jerks on the road always seem to be behind the wheel of these cars.

  • the 2007-present Nissan GT-R is assembled in

    Tochigi, Tochigi, Japan

  • shit video...2 1/2 minutes and not a single shot of the car as a whole
