  • 2012 Nissan GT-R

    Although a leaked image of the 2012 Nissan GT-R has been circling the Web for some time now, this is the first time we’ve seen the car in an official setting and confirms that an updated model is just around the corner. Nissan was tight on information but from what we can gather the additions for 2012 appear to be solely cosmetic, though with the GT-R's already impressive performance, there's not much need for more speed. Starting at the front end, the bumper design has been updated and includes a new set of LED daytime running lights on either side. There’s also a restyled air...

But it's the ST that's getting the most attention from the press gathering this year for the Paris Expo. And it's likely because of the 247 horsepower hidden underneath its bespoilered body and its bespoked wheels, and a coat of...
