2020 Nissan GT-R Nismo | UK Review | PistonHeads UK

There can't be much life left in the R35. Is the most recent Nismo the perfect way to sign off?

The new £180,000 Nissan GT-R Nismo has upped the ante - but can it compete with a Porsche?

Everybody will have a different opinion, more than ten yrs since it’s chassis hit the roads and it’s still up there with the best of them.

You always get the "it's 10 years old now" comment in these articles. But you never get the same with a 911 review,s a car that has been around since Adam first passed his test !

 

[Skint]

If it had a amg badge on the tester would be jerking his self off.

 

[JohnFK]

Some of the Mercs I see with AMG badges just make me laugh...

 

[Skint]

In full agreement with you, let’s stick a badge on a car with probably no input from AMG.

I am very tempted but the depreciation puts me off.

The Audi R8 has been around about the same amount of time too

Regardless of any individuals opinion, the residuals tell the story. 11 year old cars still at £35k for one in good order and they get driven unlike many other performance cars.

That to me is the mark of the car, if it were outdated and surpassed you wouldn't see them fetching such strong money.

i am very tempted, I have tried to do a deal on the one for sale near me in Dorset. They are not interested. I am looking elsewhere and could be tempted by the deal that I have been offered.
if you’re interested in a very low miles 2018 nismo then you know who to ask!

 

[Skint]

How much is the 2018 Nismo?

I spoke to them too but they are pretty stuck on the price aren’t they!

I am not sure what they told you but it’s under list price because of a loss of deposit due to a cancelled order. I was surprised that they wouldn’t move much on price. They claim to have sold it 3 or 4 times!

Best of luck to them shifting that in a global pandemic

its a lovely car in the flesh but your options in the car world at that level is huge

we all love them , but as Toni says the depreciation is nuts even with a discount

if youre a customer at that price level you would want new not used ( if you have to sell) & very few will stump up the cash

 

[Skint]

It‘s a beautiful car and I’d love to own it but these dealers think they’ve got the best car ever and it can’t be replaced.

Yes did say that to me, then wouldn't give me any leeway on price at all. They seem very keen to sell it on finance at near full price.
Thing is the MY21 version of the Nismo will have a Euro6 engine and possibly stop/start? So might be as well to wait.
