2013 was a good year for the GT-R. The hard core Nissan offering received a 15 HP and torque bump to 545 HP and 463 ft lbs. Other changes included a retuned Bilstein suspension system, and rearview video monitor. Unchanged are the remarkable handling and control the car dishes out, which no doubt up the driving ability of your average car enthusiast.
Motor Trend reported that the 2013 had a much "beefier top end response" and that the car felt "faster in nearly every gear." On a handling level, the chief engineer reported cornering G forces of up to 2.8 during testing on the Nurburgring.
From a styling standpoint, the GT-R is one of the truly unique cars out there. Unlike many new cars, it does not borrow styling cues from European manufacturers. If you see one from 100 yards away, there is no confusion as to what make and model you are viewing. The interior is comfortable and inviting, as well as the techi car guy’s haven. The Multi-function display in the center of the dash has graphical readouts of technical data that can be customized and manipulated per user spec.
This one owner GT-R has just over 23,000 miles, a clean CarFax and is accident free. All upgrades were professionally installed by Nissan, and the car has been serviced at the dealership since new. All records, books, and two sets of keys are available. The car has all the VIN tags on the proper panels and no paintwork.
This GT-R has been tastefully upgraded with some free flowing items including 3" intakes, an AMS down pipe, AAM Competition resonated mid pipe. The car runs the Visconti Flux fuel kit and was expertly tuned by Rob Baker at Kaizen tuning. The fuel system automatically adjusts to how much Ethanol is detected and offers significant performance gains as the Ethanol level is raised.
