Remember when the Nissan GT-R50 showed up? Not long ago, actually. They teased it as a concept back in 2018 before it rolled off the production line towards the end of 2020. Only 19 of them ever got built. Just nineteen! It was based on the GT-R Nismo, but it had something different: sleek body panels crafted by the Italian legends at Italdesign. Honestly, it looked more like it drove straight out of Gran Turismo than a real street machine. And guess what? You could actually have one in your driveway.
So, is the 11th GT-R50 ever made? Yup, that one is up for grabs. Legendary Motorcar Company—a place in Ontario, Canada, known for rare beauties—just listed it for sale. And let me tell you, it’s not your basic model. It’s sporting this crazy Liquid Silver paint job, which cost the first owner a whopping $27,000, plus a hydraulic rear wing that set them back $38,000 more. Barely driven, this gem’s been sitting around almost untouched since 2021.
Beneath those stylish panels, it packs the same twin-turbo 3.8-liter V6 as the Nismo, but it’s tuned here to push out 710 horsepower and 585 lb-ft of torque. That power? All four wheels, thanks to a rear-mounted six-speed dual-clutch transmission. And it doesn’t stop there. The suspension? Bilstein DampTronic shocks. Brakes? Brembo. Tires? Michelin Pilot Super Sports.
Inside? You’ll mostly feel like it’s just a regular GT-R, except for some bold red accents scattered around, especially on the seats and dashboard. Seats, by the way, come with carbon shell backs, and they even fold forward to let you reach the rear bench—surprising, right?
As for the price? Legendary Motorcar Company hasn’t disclosed it, but let’s be real here. This isn’t selling cheap. Originally, this GT-R50 had a starting price of $1,165,000. And now, a few years later, it’s probably worth way more.
