Nissan’s flagship sportscar, the GT-R, is coming to India very soon. So much so that if you have Rs 25 lac in your change bucket, you can book one right now for an end-2016 delivery. Nissan is claiming the most significant changes in the new model since it’s introduction in 2007. It’s been a giant-killer for nine years and we’re pretty sure that reputation will remain intact in India.

Powering the 2017 GT-R is a 3.8-litre turbo V6 generating a ridiculous 570PS and 637Nm. Not 640, not 630, but 637Nm. Details. The twist is delivered unmercifully to the road surface by a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission, no doubt helped along by Nissan’s insanely advanced electronics that allow this car to do crazy things its lighter, more expensive peers can’t. No word of the price, which will be released on the still-to-bedecided launch date. Deliveries will commence soon after. You can have your GT-R in Katsura Orange (new for 2017), Vibrant Red, Pearl Black, Storm White, Daytona Blue, Gun Metallic and Ultimate Silver with matching leather trim inside.
