Nissan launched the current GT-R sports car on an unsuspecting world back in 2007, but it took another two years for the fire-breathing, turbocharged all-wheel-drive coupe to make it to Australia.
A decade in the making and a technical tour de force for Nissan, the GT-R carries on a long tradition of Skyline-based muscle cars that can turn your insides out. It's spawned numerous versions in the eight years since its launch, culminating in the $300,000 GT-R Nismo special edition that was released in February 2017. It's not especially comfortable, nor is it particularly quiet, but by God, it's bloody fast.
Current prices range from $182,050 to $425,040 for the GT-R Premium and GT-R Nismo SV.
It is the successor to the Nissan Skyline GT-R although no longer part of the Skyline range itself.
