All 2009 Nissan GT-Rs are equipped with a standard 3.8L twin turbo V6 producing a claimed 480hp (358kW) and 434lb-ft (588Nm) of torque, backed by a paddle-shifted, dual clutch rear transmission and ATTESA E-TS all-wheel drive system.
To date, approximately 70% of the first year allocation of GT-Rs for the U.S. – roughly 1,700 cars - have been sold as part of a pre-sale program that has been underway since February 2008. The first car was delivered to a customer in California on the 7th of July.
