An updated version of the 2018 prototype will be publicly unveiled next March at the Geneva auto show. Production will be limited to 50 units, most of which already are spoken for, with pricing starting at €990,000 ($1.1 million).

Based on Nissan’s latest GT-R Nismo performance model, the GT-R50 commemorates the 50th anniversary of the GT-R muscle car. The new hypercar will be fitted with a 3.8-liter twin-turbo V-6 that can kick out 710 hp. Buyers also can choose from a wide variety of customized options.
