Sporting Nissans celebrate 50 years

NISSAN is celebrating the 50th birthday of its iconic sports cars with special edition models that have been revealed alongside the latest 2020 versions of the 370Z and GT-R.

Revealed just before this week’s New York International Auto Show, the 370Z and GT-R 50th Anniversary special edition models pay homage to the marque's race cars that achieved track success in both the USA and Japan.

Both cars feature special liveries and badging to help them stand out from the latest 2020 models plus additional interior trim and fittings.

The 370Z special gets a 50th Anniversary Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel, leather and suede-covered, heated four-way power seats with adjustable lumbar support, unique stitching, graphics and the 50th Anniversary logo embossed into the backrests.

Dark chrome accents are used throughout the interior, including special kick plates adorned with the Z logo and synthetic suede door panel inserts exclusive to the special edition model.

Meanwhile, the interior of the GT-R 50th Anniversary Edition comes in a special grey colour scheme with a number of unique 50th Anniversary features including the steering wheel and gear shift knob trim, special seat embossing, an Alcantara headliner and sun visors, and more.

In addition to the special edition models, the 2020 370Z range will be available in four trim levels - the base model, Sport, Sport Touring and NISMO - while the latest GT-R will be available in Premium, Track Edition and NISMO variants.

Nissan has yet to reveal which models and trim levels will be available in the UK, or when they are likely to go on sale.
