When you’ve acquired a disgusting amount of cash simply sitting in an account someplace, now’s your probability to purchase one thing actually distinctive. Considered one of a handful of Italdesign’s coachbuilt R35 Nissan GT-R, the GT-R50, is presently on the market. We simply don’t understand how a lot it prices.
Luxurious market James Version presently has this 2021 Nissan GT-R50 listed on the market on behalf of Canadian luxurious automotive seller Legendary Motor Automotive Firm. Nissan and famed design studio Italdesign collaborated collectively again in 2018 for the latter’s fiftieth anniversary, with a purpose to mix Japanese efficiency and Italian craftsmanship. The results of was the GT-R50 idea, which made the rounds at locations like Goodwood and varied auto reveals all over the world. It was so standard that Nissan introduced it will be constructing 50 manufacturing models of the GT-R50 at $1.1 million a pop, with manufacturing lastly beginning in 2020. Allegedly solely 19 ended up being made, and this one is quantity 11.
The GT-R50 appears to be like like some GT-R from the not too distant future, with each physique panel getting modified. Italdesign gave it a entrance fascia that’s an exaggerated model of the R35’s authentic idea’s, with a large gaping maw and headlights that attain farther again into the hood. You’ll discover the greenhouse has been shortened by over two inches, and Italdesign stored the signature quad tail lights whereas a big adjustable wing sits atop a black rear deck that flows from the rear bumper to the roof. I believe all of it appears to be like nice.
Inside isn’t as thrilling. Whereas the idea had a very distinctive inside, the manufacturing GT-R50 largely appears to be like the identical as a standard R35. Other than carbon-fiber trim and in depth use of Alcantara on the doorways, seats, sprint and roofliner, it doesn’t look as spectacular as you’d suppose for one thing this particular and costly. The crimson accent trim across the air vents and sprint appears to be like low cost, too.
The GT-R50 isn’t all appears to be like — there’s actual efficiency right here. Nismo massaged the twin-turbo 3.8-liter V6 to provide it extra energy over a regular GT-R. Due to issues like GT3-spec turbochargers, heavy-duty engine elements and revised camshaft profiles, this engine makes 710 horsepower and 585 lb-ft of torque. There’s additionally a revised suspension setup with an adaptive damping system by Bilstein, huge Brembo brakes and Michelin Pilot Tremendous Sport tires on the distinctive wheels.
The one choices on this explicit GT-R50 are the $27,000 silver metallic paint and the rear wing, which was $38,000. Regardless of all that efficiency, the outline says that this GT-R50 was by no means pushed and nonetheless has supply mileage on it. When you’re , all this may be yours for… who is aware of. Each James Version and Legendary Motor Automotive Firm need patrons to achieve out to them to seek out out the worth. I reached out to them and acquired bupkis. Possibly somebody on the market with deeper pockets than I’ll have higher luck getting a solution out of them.
