Nissan GT-R Goes Soft

Softer GT-R supercar being planned


Nissan will follow the launch of the GT-R Spec-V with the introduction of the Spec-M, a more sophisticated version of the firm’s banzai supercar.


The GT-R Spec-V firm suspension will get replaced by a softer, more refined setup and will include ripple control shock absorbers to help iron out the bumps.

There’ll also be a wider choice of interior trims to help entice a more upmarket clientele, with aluminium and wood grain finishes both options on the new Spec-M.

Customers will even be able to choose between a variety of different of seat colours.

Prices for the Spec-M are expected to start from around 13 million Yen (£95k) when it goes on sale next year, significantly less than the lightweight Spec-V that costs over 16 million Yen (£125k).
