Overview: Nissan’s GT-R may be fugly to the lay person, but as an instrument of pure speed, it’s a thing of beauty. A 545-hp, twin-turbo V-6 and astounding, all-wheel-drive grip give the GT-R supercar-grade performance. Its six-figure price, while high for a Nissan, is cheap among anything else so quick. Numerous enhancements over the years have made it ever faster and more refined, with 0-to-60 times dropping below three seconds. That’s Bugatti territory. This car’s not called Godzilla for nothing.
