NISSAN GT-R

Revamp aims to make the ageing Japanese super-coupe more usable In the press blurb for the latest incarnation of the GT-R, Nissan confidently claims a place for its cultish product on the "cutting edge of the premium sports car sector", earned since its launch way back in 2007. A more accurate version of that sentence, though, would replace the word 'since' with 'at'. At its launch, very nearly a decade ago, the GT-R arguably set the performance benchmark for its price point - a price point substantially lower than the Porsche 911 Turbo that we measured it against at the time. It won our Britain's Best Driver's Car award in 2008, which means it genuinely was the best new driver's car of that year.
