The Nissan GT-R (R35) was a performance car icon as soon as it launched in 2007. Carrying the torch of the Skyline GT-Rs everyone knew so well from Gran Turismo, it offered true supercar pace at a bargain price. Fast forward 17 years later, its pace isn’t quite so shocking anymore, and its price, at P 12.445-million, is no longer a bargain. Still, for all its old-fashioned brutality and tech, it’ll be remembered as a showcase of what a crack team of Japanese engineers could do. It’s a legend and deservingly so.
