Nissan GT-R Overview

The GT-R enjoys a special place in the industry, offering high technology and all the performance of six-figure European supercars at an $89,950 base price point. Nissan's bona fide performance machine has some significant changes for 2012, most notably big bumps in horsepower and torque to 530 hp and 448 lb-ft., respectively, from its twin-turbo V6. All that power channeled through a 6-speed dual clutch automated manual transmission and sophisticated AWD system leads to a sub-3-second 0-60 time and an 11.2-second quarter mile. The standard Premium trim level is joined by a new Black Edition, featuring exclusive black wheels and a two-tone red and black interior with Recaro racing buckets. Fuel economy estimates ring in at 16 city/23 highway mpg.
