2017 Nissan GTR Commercial - Embrace the myth

History: Between 1969 and 1974 and again between 1989 and 2002, Nissan produced a high-performance version of its Skyline Coupé called the Nissan Skyline GT-R. This vehicle has become an icon for Nissan [5] [6] and has achieved a lot of glory and success both on the road and on the track. The Nissan GT-R, now a standalone model that is no longer based on Skyline, has the Nissan Skyline Legacy GT-R. As with the later generations of the Skyline GT-R, the GT-R has four-wheel drive with a twin-turbocharged engine and four round tail lights. The GT-R is, however, a brand new model that shares little with its Skyline siblings and is a complete redesign of previous Skylines rather than gradual development; the four-wheel HICAS system was removed and the former RB26DETT direct-drive engine replaced by the new V6 VR38DETT. Due to the GT-R legacy, the chassis code for a brand new version is called CBA-R35, [8] or "R35" for short (where CBA is the prefix for the emission standard). The GT-R has also retained the nickname of Skyline Godzilla's predecessor, published by the Australian motorized publication Wheels in July 1989. Nissan Chief Creative Worker Shirō Nakamura compared the new GT-R to the gundam giant robots. Nakamura said: "The GT-R is unique because it is not just a copy of a sports car designed in Europe but must really reflect Japanese culture." Nissan's American designers carved the rear three-quarters of the car while their European designers formed the roof. Polyphony Digital, the maker of the Gran Turismo series of video racing video games, has been involved in developing the GT-R, which has been commissioned to build the GT-R multifunction display.
