New GT-R model on the way

Sure the current GT-R is fast, but when you think supercar Nissan isn’t really up in the ranks with manufacturers like Lamborghini and Ferrari, but that all may change. Entitled the GT-R V-Spec, this new model boasts specs high enough to give the Italian manufacturers a run for their money.

Sporting a full 478bhp engine coupled with the newly redesigned chassis making use of carbon fiber technologies, the GT-R V-Spec isn’t a car you’d want to go up against in a race. Also featuring 20-inch alloy wheels wrappin in Dunlop tires, carbon ceramic brakes, and Bilstein electronic dampers.’

While nothing is confirmed, word has it the car is set to be unveiled at the Chicago Motor Show and when unveiled to the public will have a price range of £80,000 or about $117,000.
