Introducing GT-R 50TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION
A legendary supercar deserves an epic celebration. From its unique competition-inspired exterior to a custom-crafted interior, the GT-R 50th Anniversary Edition proves that 5 decades in, the Nissan GT-R will still leave you breathless.
Competition-Inspired Graphics
The 50th Anniversary Edition graphics package has a rich history of its own, drawing inspiration from the 1969 4-door 2000GT-R that won the JAF Grand Prix in its debut race. Becoming a coupe in 1971, the car obliterated the competition in Japan’s domestic touring races, winning 52 races in its first three years of competition. The distinctive colors and markings that struck fear in the hearts of the competition then will bring smiles of recognition among GT-R enthusiasts today. [[67]]
