The Nissan GT-R Might Receive Hybrid Power Before Disappearing

To say that the Nissan GT-R’s future remains quite uncertain is a massive understatement. This Japanese sports car has been on sale since 2009, receiving two facelifts throughout the years. As a result, the GT-R is technically one of the oldest brand-new sports cars money can buy. Regardless, recent rumors have suggested that an electrified …

Gold Chrome Nissan GTR Selling For Over Half A Million Dollars

Yes, this elaborate, highly customized 2014 gold chrome Nissan GT-R is for sale for $550,000. That’s over half a million dollars. It may not sell for that, but that’s what the current owner is asking for it. The intricate carvings were all done by hand. This ain’t no wrapped Nissan GT-R.  Who would have thought …

The ‘Kenmeri’ Is the Oft-Forgotten Nissan Skyline GT-R

Even though the later R33 model offers several improvements, the Nissan R32 Skyline GT-R has firmly established itself as a JDM icon. However, the R32 isn’t the first car to bear the ‘Skyline GT-R’ name. That would be the ‘Hakosuka’ model of the early 70s. But in-between that car and the R32 came another Skyline, …

Would You Pay $485,000 for a Near-Mint R34 Nissan Skyline GT-R?

The R35 GT-R may be getting old, but Nissan’s supercar can still serve up serious speed. However, it’s no longer the only ‘Godzilla’ on the block. Its forbidden-fruit predecessors, the R32 and R33 Skyline GT-R, are now old enough to import. But in terms of the ultimate ‘can’t have it’ car, it’s tough to top …

You’re Better off Buying a Used Nissan GT-R

The Nissan GT-R holds a special place in many people’s hearts, but it’s not exactly the most accessible vehicle with a starting price of approximately $113,540. Luckily, even if this six-figure price tag has you balking, the GT-R might still be within your reach. According to Carfax, this premium sports car’s design hasn’t really changed since 2009 — so if …

Godzilla Meets Mecha-Godzilla: Nissan GT-R vs Tesla Model S Performance

Despite its age, the Nissan GT-R still offers an incredible blend of performance and daily-drivability. Especially in the 0-60 and ¼-mile drag racing arena. But EVs have long since proven their high-speed capabilities. And the poster child for this is the Tesla Model S, which recently received a few performance upgrades. So, what happens when …

Buying a Nissan GT-R: Classic Skyline vs. Used Modern R35

With the R33 Nissan Skyline GT-R now old enough to import, Godzilla fans may face a difficult decision. As with the Civic Type R, there’s a US-spec Nissan GT-R available, the R35. More to the point, the earliest R35s are cheap enough to approach Skyline GT-R pricing. But which is the one to get? Nissan …

Should the R33 Skyline GTR Really Be Worth More Than the Iconic R32?

Few vehicles ignite JDM Fast and Furious fever like Nissan’s Skyline GTR. Though the R34 Skyline was the actual hero car, the earlier R32 truly kicked off the car’s ‘Godzilla’ moniker. However, there was another model in-between them that doesn’t get quite as much love: the R33. The R32 has been import-eligible for years, and …

Watch the Aging GT-R Beat the C8 Corvette and a 630-Hp AMG Sedan

The mid-engine C8 Chevy Corvette, even in standard form, is already proving it can punch significantly above its horsepower rating. And there’s another car which did the same when it first came out: the Nissan GT-R. Today, the GT-R isn’t exactly cutting-edge. But, as YouTube team Throttle House demonstrates, that doesn’t mean it can’t keep …

Youngtimers Modifies Supercars to Hit the Dirt

Typically, supercars like the Nissan GT-R don’t find themselves going off-road. True, some supercars, like the Audi R8 and Aston Martin V8 Vantage can be daily-drivable. But that’s on the pavement. However, as the Gambler 500 Miata, rallying Porsche 924, and numerous Safari 911s show, taking a sports car into the dirt is definitely possible. …

Reddit Reveals the Dream Cars That Weren’t Worth It

Whether you dream of a Lamborghini Gallardo or a Subaru WRX, almost every enthusiast has their fantasy set of wheels. For some, they’re classic used cars; for others, they’re brand-new. That’s why people pay what seems like exorbitant sums for a machine that, logically, doesn’t seem worth it. But, as some Reddit users discovered, not …

Nissan Pulsar GTi-R: The Other Nissan GT-R

Nissan’s Skyline GT-R is rightfully held in high regard. When it was new, ‘Godzilla’ dominated the racing scene before making a splash on the silver screen. And even today, the R32 and R33 Nissan GT-Rs, along with the Patrol and Z-cars, are high on import fans’ wish lists. However, even when they first debuted, the …

Would the Nissan GT-R Make a Good Daily Driver?

The short answer to the question is most likely “yes.” Since the Nissan GT-R has four seats, a decent trunk and all-wheel drive (for snowy states). But let’s take a closer look at the specs and really figure out if this Japanese supercar can double as a reliable grocery-getter on the daily. Godzilla’s arrival The …

Why the Overpriced $300k 240Z Was Actually a Good Deal

For the vast majority of us, paying six figures is something usually done for a house, not a car. And it’s not just high-end luxury SUVs, like the Lamborghini Urus or Porsche Cayenne, that cost that much, either. There’s a 600-hp classic Ford Bronco available for a quarter-million dollars, and air-cooled Porsche 911s have similarly …
