The Car Guide rating 75%(view ratings)
This year, Nissan is tempting buyers with a NISMO version of the already sporty GT-R. The NISMO has enhanced aerodynamics, a more rigid body, racing shocks, a rear anti-roll bar and exclusive tires. Under the hood is the base engine (but a sweet one!) on steroids that spews 600 horses. Their fury is directed to all four wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission.
