Nissan GT-R (R35)


The Nissan GT-R. It has a heritage that dates back to the first Nissan Skyline. It might not be carrying the Skyline name anymore, but it sure is packing a strong, strong punch. It's top speed is 196 miles per hour, and surprisingly enough, it has an MPG rating of 23 on the highway! Not bad for a sports car.

A Top Gear video reviewing the GT-R. Good watch!

Vehicle Specs:
Based on the 2014 model.

My Opinion:
This car came out in 2007 in Japan, 2008 in America, and 2009 around the world. The sad thing is, the car has paddle shifters, and to me, I'm not digging it. Luckily, they do have manual transmissions. The Nissan Skyline (R34 model) has been nicknamed Godzilla, ironically enough since Godzilla is a Japanese based monster. This car carries that nickname with pride, being able to turn corners at very high speeds and maintain that speed getting out of corners. The car is indeed a jaw dropper, and Nissan outdid themselves with this vehicle. It'll be a dream come true to own this car!
