Overall rating

4.5 out of 5 stars

Likes:

  • Stunning performance - and not just in a straight line
  • Aggressive styling a nod to Skyline models from the past
  • Despite its potential, GT-R is easy to drive on a daily basis
  • Bang for buck' pricing is unbeatable in the affordable supercar market

Gripes:

  • Not a quiet or subtle car - even when driven slowly
  • Dark, sombre cabin lacks the ambience or character of rival European cars
  • Purchase price might be low but thirst for fuel is in supercar territory
  • Badge snobbery will ensure some will pass the GT-R by
