The Nissan GT-R has been one of the most celebrated supercars of this generation. It has been hailed as Japan’s only true supercar, a four-seat saloon car that beats other supercars that are twice its value. Despite its affordable pricing, the car packed advanced technologies that made it one of the most tuner-friendly cars the world has seen.

Skyline GT-R
The Skyline GT-R has been setting record lap times around various race tracks across the globe. In the world of motorsports, this car is a certified classic, beating almost every car that is pitted against it in touring car competitions across the globe. It even received a full 140 kg weight penalty and even banned in some events because no other car could beat it.

The new GT-R
During the development, Nissan used the Porsche 911 Turbo as its benchmark. After more than 5 years of dedicated work, the new R35 GT-R was made. Unlike the previous Skyline GT-R, his sports car definitely looks the part. With a new aggressive styling, Nissan has put in a lot of electronic and technological systems in the car. These made the GT-R one of the most fun, “un-crashable” cars that one can find given its many driving aids.

Top Gear UK appearance
This car was featured on the very popular motoring program, Top Gear UK. In its first appearance in the program, the program show hosts had a race across Japan. Jeremy Clarkson rode a GT-R and the other hosts Richard Hammond and James May used Japan’s very fast and efficient public transport system. In the course of the race, the Clarkson got first in the Buddha of Road Safety. The first version of the GT-R lapped Top Gear’s circuit at 1.19.7, Making it faster than a number of Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Mercedes-Benzes, and Porsches. The second time it went around the famed track, it clocked in a 1.17.8 lap, that is faster than exotic supercars like the Pagani Zonda and the Bugatti Veyron. This have made the GT-R the most

Supercar in the wrong hands
Despite experts saying that the GT-R is hard to crash as it is very easy to drive, several GT-R owners have manage to ruin the car in fatal car crashes. Richard Gutierrez, an actor from the Philippines crashed his GT-R in 2009 after allegedly falling asleep behind the wheel of one. Also just recently, an improperly driven GT-R got airborne, lost control, and crashed. While powerful cars like the GT-R are fun to drive, having the wrong driver get behind its wheel is like a catastrophe waiting to happen. According to a Los Angeles Auto Accident Attorney, most accidents happen because of the lack of skills by these cars’ drivers and the lack of discipline when driving.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) received thousands of reports of car crashes across America. That is why a Los Angeles lawyer reminds the driver of such special cars to take special care when driving a sports car. This way, you can enjoy the great performance of these special cars without putting your life and others’ in jeopardy.
