That is really the name associated with this car. The Nissan GTR has been for years a benchmark for other wannabe cars- like Lamborghini, Ferrari, and McLaren to beat... sort of. Those companies make exceptional cars, but you should expect that when you are north of $300,000. The GTR is one of the fastest and best performance cars in the world- beating out competitors that cost 2-3 times the price. It has a massively powerful V6- hand built by a single craftsman (of a team of 4) in Yokohama. While the GTR has been for sale for decades in the Japanese market- they only came to the US in 2009. Every year the car has been improved- taking input from racing programs and owners. While I have only done it a couple times- it will launch you from 0-60 in a neck snapping 2.9 seconds. It is exhilarating, but it is also borderline violent and I hesitate to do it too often. While cars like this are often featured in video games- the graphics used in the instrument display were created by the company with one of the most popular racing games. It is reasonably comfortable to drive as a regular car, however there are instructions included with the owners manual stating that clattering eminating from the engine and transmission are normal for a race car- and not to call your dealer to complain.
