"This is an extra edition of "American Cars I'd Like to Own Someday.
This time, I'd like to introduce you to the 2020 GT-R Nismo, the final evolution of the R35 GT-R, which is available for immediate delivery.
The details of the car are as follows

I found and photographed this GT-R Nismo when I went to BUBU Saitama (Chevrolet Saitama South) to cover the new Chevrolet Corvette (C8).
The R35 GT-R is very conspicuous. The R35 GT-R is very conspicuous, and when you see it, you can't help but notice it.
And when I took a look at the price board, I was surprised to see the price of the car! "What, 26.8 million yen? Are you serious? I was like, "Really?" (laughs).
There was no way that a shiny GT-R would be priced at 2.68 million yen, so there was no possibility that the price was wrong by a single digit, and I also considered the possibility that the price was 16.8 million yen, but even I knew that the R35 GT-R Nismo was extremely expensive, so that was unlikely.
So I checked with the staff at the store and they said, "That car is indeed 26.8 million yen. That's more than the price of a new car, isn't it? But the car has only been driven less than 1,500 kilometers, so it's almost like a new car.
He added, "The 2022 model of the GT-R Nismo was announced in the spring of this year, but the 2022 model will not be delivered for a long time. Also, the 2020 model is already at quite a premium at this stage due to the fact that only 131 units have been sold. There are already a few of them on the used car market, but all of them exceed the selling price of a new car," he explained.
As I listened to him, I thought, "Maybe I should take some pictures. Since the C8 interview was done earlier than I expected, I had more time to spare that day.
As I mentioned in the video, premium prices are not uncommon in the world of American cars. Recently, when the C8 Corvette just came out, the Shelby GT500, and the Dodge Challenger Red Eye were usually priced at a premium of 10,000 to 20,000 dollars when ordered from Japan to the US.
When the second generation of the Ford GT was announced, they even screened prospective buyers in order to prohibit them from buying the car for resale.
With the R35 GT-R being a special edition of Japan's world-class high performance car, it is no wonder that it was sold at a premium when it was first released.
However, I was surprised to see the price of 26.8 million yen, since the base model of the R35 GT-R was priced at 7.77 million yen when it debuted in 2007. The price is more than three times the price of the debut model, which is outrageous when you think about it (laughs).
However, the second generation Skyline GT-Rs (R32, R33, and R34) are now commanding a tremendous premium in the used car market. Especially for the R34, the R34 V-Spec II was sold at an auction in Australia for about 24.5 million yen, and an unused V-Spec II Nür was sold on Yahoo Japan for 50 million yen.
If the Nismo is the pinnacle of the R35 GT-R, which has greatly improved its performance since the Skyline era and has gained worldwide recognition, it would not be surprising if in the future it would fetch a higher premium than the current second-generation Skyline GT-R.
Of course, who knows if the price will really go up in 10 or 20 years? Of course, no one knows if the price will really rise in 10 or 20 years, and buying one for investment purposes is like gambling in a sense.
But regardless of the future price increase, the 2020 GT-R Nismo is certainly Nissan's culmination of a super high performance car and one of the fastest road-going cars in the world.
Even if you take out a long term loan, the monthly payment will be 300,000 yen or 400,000 yen, and I don't think ordinary people will be able to afford it, but if you have the financial means, I think it's a car you can't lose buying.
By the way, when I heard the price of 26.8 million yen, I immediately thought, "That's the price of a C8 Corvette 2LT (11.8 million yen) and a Cadillac Escalade Platinum (14.9 million yen) combined..." (laughs)
