Although nine years old as of 2016, the GT-R received two significant updates that included enhanced aerodynamics and more powerful engines.
The 2017 facelift also brought a revised Nismo model, but unfortunately for GT-R enthusiasts, the range-topping version came with a significant price hike. But those who can’t afford a Nismo can opt for the new Track Edition package, which adds a few goodies inside and out, as well as a handful of chassis updates.
