GT-R R500 Unveiled in New Nissan Works Livery |
| Source: Nissan | Published: January 14, 2008 |
The GT500 specification Nissan GT-R racing car, which will vie for the
2008 SUPER GT series, will make its public debut at the “Tokyo Auto
Salon with NAPAC” (January 11-13, 2008 at Makuhari Messe), followed by the
“Osaka Auto Messe 2008” (February 9-11, 2008 at Intecks Osaka), the country’s
two largest annual custom car shows.
The new works livery – which will be featured across Nissan motorsports
activities during the 2008 season – will be unveiled on the race car. Nissan
will vie for the SUPER GT Championship, one of the world’s most demanding GT
race series, with the new machine built on the same multi-performance super car
concept of the Nissan GT-R road car.
The new livery resulted from close collaboration between Nissan’s design team
and NISMO, its motorsports affiliate company, and incorporates feedback from
members of the “Club NISMO” fan club.
The signature wide “brush stroke” design motif, synonymous with the current
Fairlady Z race car, was carried forward into the new GT-R racing car as
Nissan’s racing fans worldwide could immediately associate with the design. The
livery design swipes forward from the rear in bold red and black – the red
symbolises the passion for racing, while the black signifies the high
performance of the new Nissan GT-R.
