2014 Nissan GT-R Reviews
Nissan has unveiled the Japanese specifications for the 2013 Nissan GT-R and announced that the 2014 Nissan GT-R U.S. model year will be making its world debut at the 2012 Los Angeles Auto Show. The 2014 U.S.-spec GT-R will be nearly identical to the 2013 JDM-spec GT-R, but American customers will enjoy a few more updates, like limited to minor tweaks to the engine’s internals.
For the 2014 Nissan GT-R model year, the GT-R’s body remains unchanged. Up front, the GT-R is very easy to recognize due to its large hood bulge, enlarged central air intake, super-wide-beam headlights and its front fenders with the "aero-blades”. The sports coupe’s rear end gets the hallmark four-ring taillights, a functional rear carbon fiber underbody diffuser, rear venting, rear spoiler and integrated quad exhaust tips.
Customers will have to choose from a rather wide color palette that includes: Deep Blue Pearl, Jet Black, Solid Red, Gun Metallic, Pearl White and a limited production 4-stage metallic Super Silver.
For the interior, brings a few updates for the 2014 model year. All models will be offered with a carbon-fiber interior trim.
The 2014 Nissan GT-R Premium Interior Package includes: exclusive Red Amber color semi-aniline leather appointments with hand-stitching on the front seats, plus Red Amber accents on the instrument panel that includes a large center-mounted tachometer and the easy-to-read graphics of the display, steering wheel, door trim, armrests and shift knob. While the 2014 Nissan GT-R Black Edition will get a redesigned steering wheel and adds a unique red-and-black interior scheme along with leather-appointed Recaro seats.
The most amazing feature of the 2014 Nissan GT-R remains its game-inspired multi-function display, which Nissan created in collaboration with Polyphony Digital. It offers eleven pages of info, including: mechanical and driving information, acceleration, brake pedal pressure, steering angle, and a recording function with playback.
Under the hood, the 2014 Nissan GT-R keeps the usual 3.8-liter twin-turbo V-6 engine that delivers a total of 545 horsepower and 463 pound-feet of torque. However, the Nissan upgraded this 6-pot even further.
The engine has received new fuel injectors that help improve torque delivery at mid- to high-rpm ranges. Nissan also installed a new oil pan baffle to stabilize oil behavior and oil pressure under high performance driving conditions. Then added in plasma-sprayed bores to reduce friction, a secondary air management system to avoid excessive CO2 emissions upon cold startup, a revised oil-scavenging system to keep the twin IHI turbochargers well lubricated and a lateral wet- and dry-sump oiling system to keep the engine properly slicked up under heavy load. As a final addition, an aluminum nameplate is added to each engine showing the name of the engine constructor.
The 2014 model year prices have been increased by $2,770. As a result, the 2014 GT-R Premium is priced at $99,590 and the 2014 GT-R Black Edition comes in at $109,300.
