$1.2m Nissan GT-R50 by Italdesign on Track! | FIRST DRIVE

I had a truly special opportunity to drive the Nissan GT-R50 by Italdesign! With a price tag of €1m plus taxes (or approx $1.2m) it's a celebration for the 50th anniversaries of both GT-R and Italdesign with a totally new look formed on a Nismo GT-R. With very few outings to date, this is a really exclusive opportunity to get a feel for what it's like.

The GT-R50 by Italdesign has an entirely new body wrapped over the latest generation of Nismo GT-R. It sits 54mm lower and as such as a very sleep appearance, with significantly more attractive bodywork than found on the regular GT-R models. In terms of performance it has a 3.8l TT V6 but now runs 710hp/780nm instead of the stock 600hp/652nm, with a reinforced gearbox, diff and driveshafts with improved Bilstein suspension and Brembo brakes too.

During my visit to Dubai, I was invited to head to the Dubai Autodrome to take part in an experience with the car out on track alongside perspective customers, giving me a very rare opportunity to present the GT-R50 to you on video. Of course it was a fantastic day, and an amazing chance to drive! Joining me in the video is Suhail Jefferies, father of racing driving Axcil Jefferies.

Thanks for watching, Tim

A Nissan GT-R is known for its awd, low price, and overall performance. You’re just destroying it’s roots by overpricing it so much.

When I think of a gtr I'd like to imagine it at a Japanese car meet at night. That's the attractive looks alot of ppl are looking for.

[alfonso]

People crying “it doesn’t look like a gtr” aren’t y’all tired of the same damn look of the GTR? They finally got with the times

[tomtellem]

How did you time that intro so perfectly?

I was about to say this was the most beautiful Japanese design i have ever seen. Then I found out it was Italian.

I dig the design, think if the next GT-R looks something like this it'll be great. Very futuristic. As always, top notch content Tim.

I love how car companies are just slapping a million dollars on a lot of cars. What’s so special about this car? It’s a Nissan I’d rather spend a million on a Bugatti or something else. Great videos shmee keep up the amazing work buddy!

The headlights and a couple other bits of the design are nice. But it still doesn't look that good and would never pay 1.2M for that...I would say no more than 250k.

Italians know the job.. always best designs
