CAR OVERVIEW
Nissan GT-R Black Edition 2016
Overview
When Nissan launched the GT-R, it completely rewrote the performance car rulebook. Supercar performance, everyday usability and devastating all-weather capability combined to create one of the most respected performance cars of the modern era.
This 2016 Nissan GT-R Black Edition represents everything enthusiasts love about the R35 platform. Finished in stunning Vibrant Red (A54) with the highly sought-after Black and Red Recaro interior, this exceptionally low mileage example has covered just 21,575km from new and carries an outstanding Grade 4.5 auction rating with Interior Grade B.
Finding a Nissan GT-R Black Edition with such low mileage is becoming increasingly difficult, particularly as more collector-grade examples are finding permanent homes around the world. Combined with desirable factory equipment, documented maintenance history and excellent overall condition, this is exactly the type of GT-R that serious buyers are actively searching for.
Whether you’re looking for an investment-grade Japanese performance car, a weekend supercar killer or simply one of the finest modern GT-Rs available from Japan today, this example deserves very close attention.

What Makes The Nissan GT-R Black Edition So Special?
The Black Edition has always occupied a sweet spot within the GT-R range.
It delivers a more focused driving experience than the standard GT-R while retaining all of the everyday usability that made the R35 such a success. The addition of lightweight Recaro sports seats, enhanced interior detailing and a more purposeful feel throughout the cabin gives the Black Edition a distinct character that many enthusiasts actively seek.
The Black Edition has become one of the most desirable non-special-edition GT-R variants because it offers the perfect balance between collectability, usability and performance.
Combined with Nissan’s legendary VR38DETT twin-turbo engine and advanced all-wheel-drive system, it remains one of the most capable performance cars ever produced.
Why Are Nissan GT-R Values Continuing To Rise?
The Nissan GT-R is no longer simply a used performance car.
Production has ended, the automotive world is rapidly moving towards electrification and enthusiasts are beginning to recognise the significance of the GT-R in automotive history.
Low mileage examples are becoming increasingly difficult to source, particularly those retaining strong auction grades and desirable specifications.
Cars like this are no longer being viewed solely as performance vehicles. They are becoming genuine collector assets.
The combination of limited future supply, increasing global demand and the legendary reputation of the GT-R platform continues to support values worldwide.
Many enthusiasts who delayed purchasing Skyline GT-R models during the early 2000s now look back wishing they had bought sooner. The same conversations are increasingly being had about exceptional R35 examples.
