Nissan unvealed
their 2008 Nissan GTR GT500 race car at the Tokyo Auto Salon,
alongside a few more concepts and tuning packages. Nismo entered
the GTR GT 500 in the Super GT race series for the 2008 season,
replacing the Nissan 350Z. The GTR GT500 managed 4 victories in
the 2009 Japanese SUPER GT Series GT 500 class.
The 2008 GTR
GT500 is displayed in Nissan livery, which has been designed as
a collaboration between Nissan, NISMO (Nissan Motorsport) and
feedback from members of the 'Club NISMO' fan club.
The brush stroke design motif will remain in the
livery due to the fact that motorsport fans from all over the
world immediately associate that with Nissan. Otherwise the car
will mainly use red (signifiying racing passion) and black (signifiying
high performance), swiping forward from the rear.
