Overview

The Nissan GT-R has long stood as one of Japan’s most formidable performance machines, blending brutal turbocharged power with advanced all-wheel drive technology and race-bred engineering. Introduced to celebrate half a century of the GT-R nameplate, the 50th Anniversary Edition commemorates one of the most legendary performance car lineages in automotive history.

This example is finished in Anniversary Blue with a Grey interior, a colour combination inspired by historic GT-R racing liveries. Showing just 5,857 km, the car carries the highest possible auction grading with Grade 5 and A interior, indicating an exceptionally well preserved example with minimal signs of use.

With its extremely low mileage, desirable limited edition specification and iconic heritage, this GT-R represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of the most collectible modern versions of Nissan’s flagship performance car.

Why the 50th Anniversary Edition is special

The GT-R 50th Anniversary Edition was created to celebrate 50 years of the GT-R nameplate, a lineage that began with the Skyline GT-R in 1969. Nissan developed this edition to honour its motorsport heritage and racing history.

Special anniversary paint finishes pay tribute to classic GT-R racing liveries, particularly those seen in historic Skyline race cars. Unique interior detailing, special badging and commemorative design elements distinguish the model from standard GT-R variants.

Because production numbers were limited and demand remains extremely strong among collectors and enthusiasts, the 50th Anniversary Edition has quickly become one of the most desirable modern R35 variants.
