Spotted: A one-owner, low-mileage, perfectly serviced Nissan GT-R. They do exist!
For the committed buyer, for folk like you and I, car ownership is a big deal. There's a lot to think about once money has been exchanged and the keys are yours. Should it be run on expensive fuel? Which tyres ought to go on? Is your cleaning gear good enough? Is it worth joining every single owners club? And so on and so on.
Then there's the question of modifying. On the one hand, a standard and unmodified car is likely to be more desirable when you come to sell again; on the other, a tuned one might be more fun to own while your name is on the V5. It's a particular bind for owners of the Japanese fast cars that have always responded so well to aftermarket fettling.
When the Nissan GT-R launched in 2008, it seemed that the days of crazy tuning for Japanese cars might be done, simply because the R35-era car was so damn fast as standard. Nobody needed to go any quicker than the very, very strong 485hp could deliver, surely. Alas, Nissan had built another formidably strong twin-turbo six-cylinder engine, and it wasn't long before the aftermarket discovered the VR38DETT could easily produce hundreds more horsepower than standard.
Almost 15 years since the R35 made its debut at the 2007 Tokyo motor show, it feels a little like history might be repeating itself. If there is another GT-R, it's going to be a significantly different car to the R35, which will inevitably focus attention back on the old car. Those wishing to preserve one for posterity - as some are clamouring to do now with the R34 - will want an original car, but good luck finding one of those.
It's 12 years old next month, yet has covered only 20,000 miles; we've all surely read adverts about Nissans used so seldom by one lady owner, but never for a GT-R. The condition is commensurate with the usage and history, even the infamously plastic-fantastic interior showing few signs of wear. The paint hasn't faded, the wheels look great, the engine bay is clean - it's seemingly a really nice example, and a great reminder of just how much impact a standard GT-R can still have.
