The GT-R is a 2-door, 4-passenger sports car, available in two trims, the Coupe and the Premium Coupe.
Upon introduction, both trims are equipped with a standard 3.8-liter, V6, 480-horsepower, turbo engine that achieves 16-mpg in the city and 21-mpg on the highway. A 6-speed manual transmission with overdrive is standard.
The 2010 Nissan GT-R gets a number of improvements and upgrades for the new model year. Power from the GT-R’s 3.8-liter twin turbo V6 engine gets bumped up to 485 horses, and new programming for the Transmission Control Module (TCM) improves drivability and vehicle acceleration when the Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) is active. Brakes have also been updated with more rigid brake lines for improved durability and the brake calipers now feature both the Brembo and Nissan logos. Base GT-Rs are now equipped with a slightly darker high-luster smoke finish for the standard 20-inch RAYS forged aluminum-alloy wheels, while a new near-black metallic wheel finish is standard on the Premium model. A new Pearl White color is added to the GTR’s palate and the exclusive Super Silver exterior color has been enhanced and now includes a polished front bumper.
