Skyline is the codename when you talk about sports cars from the Japanse brand. It has been a while since we saw a genuine sports car coming out of the sheds from Nissan. By combining 485bhp – nearly 200bhp more than its predecessor – a 3.8-liter twin-turbo V6, double-clutch gearbox, advanced four-wheel drive, traction control and a lot of aluminium and carbon fiber Nissan created its most potent car yet; the 2010 GT-R.

Every pertrolhead knows the heritage of the R32 Skyline GT-R, produced from 1989-1993, because of its equal performance to the iconic Porsche 959.

The main reason to build the GT-R was two-sided: the base price had to be about $70,000 and secondly, the car had to be profitable, not an image-boosting “halo car”. Over the past period the GT-R has proven himself on both subjects.
