Post European Nissan GT-R specs released, now with more power, grip

12-08-2008 03:59 PM

Filed under: , , , , , ,



Nissan giveth, and Nissan taketh away. Although next year's Nissan GT-R will reportedly (maybe) lose launch control, it will get five more horsepower after a few electronics tweaks, going from 480 PS (473 hp) to 485 PS (478 hp), according to an official statement from Nissan UK. It will also be stickier thanks to the stock fitment of Dunlop SP Sport 600 DSST tires - the same troublesome rubber that earned the GT-R its 7:29 'Ring time and the continued public complaints of Porsche - and altered spring rate settings.

Aesthetically, the Premium Edition GT-R gets rims in Gun Metal Grey, and the Black Edition wears the same wheels in black. And in a development straight out of a marketing roundtable, Pearl White simply wasn't cutting it as an exterior color, so it's been replaced by a "deep" white called "Storm."

Of course, all of this will cost you more and you'll have to wait longer: the base GT-R jumps 3.8-percent in price up to £56,795, and you can tack on £1,300 more for a Premium Edition or £2,600 for the Black Edition. And then you can wait until 2010 for your car to arrive.
