'LUXURY' NISSAN GT-R RUMOURED

'SpecM' R35 to be a bit of a softy


Nissan is tipped to be getting ready to reveal a luxury version of the GT-R at the Tokyo Motor Show in October.

According to the rumours, the SpecM will include the bodykit and wheels from the flagship SpecV GT-R, but with subtly restyled bumpers, more forgiving suspension and a more luxurious interior.

Perhaps trying to imbue the rest of the car with the hand-made quality of the oily bits, and the SpecM will apparently be offered with a vast array of personalized combinations for the paint, leather and general trim.

The SpecM should also cost significantly less than the £114,000 SpecV at closer to £70,000, depending on spec. And with the 'boggo' GT-R's three current versions still hovering around £60,000 the SpecM will have to do a lot to justify that hefty premium.
