Now we are torn. Yesterday we saw the Aston DBR9 Le Mans livery athlete in the Gulf and some we found the best racing car of the year.But now Nissan has taken the wraps off the impressive and GT500 GT-R in Tokyo, and we are all broken.
Because, well, just watch. The GT500 is, as you might have guessed, a version of the racing GT-R (Top Gear Supercar of the Year, no less), which has to compete in the Japan Super GT Championship.
It will compete at the highest level, the GT500 - quite possibly the fastest GT series in the world thanks to a list of regulations that says something like: "Do more or less what they want, as long as you keep in 500bhp. "
As leaf course GT-R puts out some 480bhp, which means it will not be much more powerful on paper. But, as a quick look at (and, more importantly, a quick listen to) this video of the cabin test reveals, there have been some very serious work put into the GT-R 3.8-liter twin-turbo V6. What noise.
