The legend of the GT-R began in May of 1964 in Japan when the affectionately termed “boxy” Skyline passed a Porsche 904 at a hairpin curve on the
Suzuka Circuit.

The GT-R legend continued on the Japanese racing circuits and in the sports car world when the GT-R was equipped with a powerful engine and
state-of-the-art all-wheel drive system in August of 1989.

A new legend is in the making for the 21st century. The “NISSAN GT-R” is now available worldwide.

During development, the NISSAN GT-R was taken to the Nurburgring in Germany, a racetrack used for performance evaluation benchmarking of
supercars. While being driven by a professional driver, the GT-R set a record time of 7 minutes 38 seconds even though the road surface of the most
difficult high-speed corner, the “kesselchen” was wet. The GT-R also handled an endurance test totaling approximately 3,000 miles (5,000 km),
setting the world’s fastest continuous driving lap time of 7 minutes 55 seconds. Additionally, to make sure the GT-R performs off the track as well as it
does on the track, the vehicle was designed to perform on many types of roads from a scorching freeway to snow swept country roads.

A new legend is born.
