The Next Nissan GT-R

[pokemonfan58]

That teaser looks like the current R35...What's gonna be different?

OP says its going to have a new facelift so that's pretty much the difference. Just an R35 with a new facelift.

As @pokemonfan58 mentioned Ii's going to be another facelift, but the changes are going to be more noticeable at the front. It is more drastic than the 2012 model year update, expect the corporate grill to feature in a similar way to this:

EDIT: When are Full-LED lights in the GT-R going to become a thing? It would certainly make it less obvious the car is approaching its 9th year of production.

Expect more power and suspension changes too.

That long already?

Time flies.

Could it be possible that they might put GT-R on a diet by switching into the recently debuted 3l twinturbo V6? I'd assume it is lighter and more fuel efficient even if they tweak it to match power output of current motor.

I think that is a risky move, people are going to associate the R35 with the much cheaper Infiniti Q60. However, there is a high chance the VR30 engine will be used in the R36 with a Hybrid setup.

Negative.

The model year, duh...





Yeah i'm being a cheeky b:censored:ard.

Well, the others in the thread answered, so I was expecting some cheek.

But you are right, technically.

I think it would be cool if one of these facelifts just made it look more like the 2005 concept. I always thought that looked better than the final car, and was one of the few times where that unfortunate mascara car design stuff looked really good.

 

[CodeRedR51]

 

[FT-1]

Very nice! Looks more like the GT-R Proto now. 👍

 

[TS050]

Here we are.

I love the new facelift, and just look at that interior!

IT ACTUALLY LOOKS GOOD NOW!

 

[Obelisk]

It looks awesome now. That orange is also legit good.

 

[Tornado]

They made it look even more slab-sided than it already was. The interior, however, looks great.

 

[FT-1]

I'm surprised at how upmarket the interior looks

 

[TS050]

Oh, I almost forgot; power has been bumped up by 20bhp, so it's sitting at 562bhp now.

EDIT: And for those who are fans of Need For Speed, this car is coming to the game tomorrow.

 

[ToyGTone]

I Like how it looked before, now it looks better. The interior feels much more luxurious now.

 

[GTboyz]

i've seen it through NFS instagram page saying it's on NFS2015 now.

It looks awesome but it reminds me a bit of Lexus LFA with that side vents.

 

[VXR]

I didn't see an improved interior on Facebook, so that's a very pleasant surprise. It looks a nice place to sit.

 

[GTFan24]

Holy cow that's a nice looking GT-R! And it's got some Proto vibes too! 👍

 

[CodeRedR51]

Can't wait to see this in person. Shouldn't be too long before they ship us some press cars to break in.

The old steering wheel looked better.

 

[AudiMan2011]

I hate the brown/tan colors on the interior.

 

[Keef]

Brown and black two-tone interiors are gaudy and awful. It looks like a cheap cover, even more so than the new Viper. I'll just have my interior in black, thanks, as it's much easier to care for and lasts a lot longer.

 

[FoRiZon]

I think the Brown leather interior tone is just an optional feature.

Well, I have to say it looks pretty amazing now. So, what would we call this one, the R35.5?

Also maybe the larger display was taking up all of GT Sport's development time?

There was a facelift back in 2012, so that would be the R35.5. Maybe R35 Mark 3? (tempted to go with Spec 3.0)

With all the updates it's had since launch, I think we might be at R35.8 or R35.9 or something.
