2017 Nissan GT-R Nismo pricing confirmed

Future GT-R Nismo owners will be faced with two groups of people: Nissan aficionados who totally understand why somebody would spend a six-figure sum on the car, and everyone else who thinks that doing so is utterly baffling.

The second category is bound to have considerably more members than the first. Consequently, the 2017 GT-R Nismo's price tag of £149,995 (€184,950 in France and Germany) is going to demand repeated justification.

It's not as if such a tough feat can be achieved by focussing on value for money.

Take cost per horsepower, for example. Sure, the Nissan's 3.8 litre twin-turbo V6 engine boasts an impressively high output, but most rival offerings from swankier brands score very similarly on this basis.
