Nissan GT-R

'Did you see the newest Porsche 911 Turbo? Not since second gear.'
– Nissan GT-R

And that is no lie, this Nissan has scared the entire supercar world and sent it back to the drawing board. We don't often have a car that really makes us speechless, but this GT-R has done it. When all the buttons are on 'normal', it is a wonderful sports car to eat a lot - and especially long roads. As soon as you put all the buttons on the center console on position "R", it is a completely different story. The suspension and steering become so reactive that if you drive over a euro coin, you can tell whether it was heads or tails! When you start her, you notice that she is not completely standard. MRT Performance has taken the GT-R in hand and removed the Y-pipe. Necessary? No. Fun? Wow!!

The 3.8 liter V6 Twin-turbo is assembled entirely by hand by one of the four very specially trained Nissan mechanics called 'Takumi's'. To make sure that no dirt gets into the engine during production, they are assembled in a special climate-controlled high-pressure chamber. After assembly, each gearbox is custom-made for each engine. As Europeans, we thought we were accurate, but the Japanese surpass us. When you get in and bring the GT-R to life, you are treated to many displays with even more functions, in addition to the beautiful howl-roar. The G-forces, boost, temperatures and even all FIA circuits are part of the interface. If you think it looks like a Playstation, you are right; Polyphony Digital (designer of GranTourismo, among others) designed the entire interface.

Another thing we find noteworthy is the design. This was the first sports car to be partly designed by a computer. The computer had one task, to be as aerodynamic as possible. And it succeeded quite well, the GT-R has a Cd value of 0.26 (!). Compared to big names this is extremely low (Ferrari Enzo 0.36, Porsche 911 GT2 0.34, Bugatti Veyron 0.39). This together with the enormous downforce makes it a supercar killer. Jeremy Clarkson had to go to the hospital after driving the GT-R. Why? His neck couldn't handle the G forces. So, do you want to treat yourself to one of the most notable Cool Classics to-be? We have it, from the last 'nice' year of construction, in collector condition. You are welcome in our clubhouse! Don't forget your neck brace.
