Now, for the 2024, Nissan is introducing two special edition variants that pay homage to the GT-R’s illustrious legacy while hinting at potential future developments in automotive technology. The T-Spec Takumi edition, inspired by the master artisans known as ‘Takumi’ in Japan, celebrates the handcrafted precision of the GT-R’s engine. Adorned with unique touches, such as a red-etched script on the engine badge and a gold-plated VIN under the bonnet, this edition exemplifies the pinnacle of automotive craftsmanship.
In contrast, the GT-R Skyline Edition pays tribute to the GT-R’s rich history and cultural significance. Named after the breathtaking skyline vistas of Japan, this edition also nods to the original Skyline model, which served as the foundation for the GT-R’s iconic status. Dressed in the iconic Bayside Blue paint reminiscent of the 50th anniversary edition, the GT-R Skyline Edition features a luxurious Sora Blue leather interior, evoking nostalgia for enthusiasts and collectors alike.
Both special edition models are equipped with exclusive features that elevate the GT-R’s performance and aesthetic appeal. From carbon-ceramic brakes to gold-painted 20-inch wheels and wider front fenders, these trims offer a blend of performance and luxury that epitomises the GT-R experience. The T-Spec Takumi edition stands out with Midnight Purple paintwork, complemented by a distinctive Mori Green colour scheme in the interior.
While these special editions celebrate the heritage of the Nissan GT-R, they also spark speculation about the future direction of automotive technology. As the automotive industry undergoes a paradigm shift towards electrification and autonomous driving, enthusiasts and industry observers wonder if these special editions could mark the end of an era for the traditional internal combustion engine-powered GT-R.
With no official pricing or production numbers announced yet, the anticipation surrounding these special editions continues to grow as enthusiasts eagerly await further details closer to the launch date later this year.
