It has finally been priced in the UK at \u00a3149,995 and goes on sale from 1 November 2016.<\/p>\n<p>The price makes it more expensive than a Porsche 911 Turbo S which is available with a price tag of \u00a3145,773. The Porsche 911 GT3 RS which is a track car will cost \u00a3131,296 in the UK.<\/p>\n<p>The GT-R Nismo has new grille and bumper design from its predecessor. One big difference is that it has parts which are made from carbon-fibre and generate greater downforce than any other Nissan road car ever.<\/p>\n<p>To make sure the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.enginecompare.co.uk\/make?car=all-nissan-engine&amp;make_id=6\"><strong>GT-R<\/strong><\/a> is all new, the Nismo version gets upgraded shock absorbers, springs and stabilizers. All of this is combined with extra downforce Nissan says it\u2019s better to drive than ever.<\/p>\n<p>All of this has increased cornering performance by nearly 2 per cent according to Nissan. You can adjust the settings to suit you as well, using an adaptive damper system.<\/p>\n<p>Although it has all these changes, but the 3.8-liter twin-turbo V6 produces 592bhp at 6,800rpm and 652Nm of torque from 3,600rpm to 5,600rpm.<\/p>\n<p>It is mated to a six-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox. The engine is hand-built by specially trained Nissan technicians.<\/p>\n<p>All of these changes mean lightning fast speed of 0-62mph in around 2.5 seconds with a top speed of 200mph.<\/p>\n<p>Nismo\u2019s interior has been upgraded too with a redesigned dashboard, steering wheel and center armrest which utilizes Alcantara. It also has a larger 8-inch display screen on the dash.<\/p>\n<p>In order to simplify things, the button layout has been changed. A display <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Command_and_control\"><strong>command control<\/strong><\/a> lets you operate the display without having to touch the screen. You can also get leather Recaro sports seats with red inserts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nissan launches the face lifted Nismo GT-R The updated Nissan Nismo GT-R has been revealed with carbon-fibre parts and a lot more down force than ever.
