Nissan is making a few changes to the GT-R for Model Year 2009. Soon it will be two years since the GT-R went to market in Japan and these changes/ additions will benefit that market first. MY 09 is being dubbed Series II.

It gets a power upgrade of 5ps to 485ps/ 357kW, the white point paint is now Storm White, Brembo brake calipers are now rebadged as Nissan instead of Brembo, and the front license plate base has been removed and the fuel tank increased from 71 litres to 73.8 litres. Fuel economy thus goes from 8.2 km/L to 8.5km/L. However, all this comes at yet another price increase, this time up 5 percent.

 

They shouldve atleast gave it 10 more hp than just 5.


Some samples of the new color. Storm White vs Ivory Pearl White

 

It's too bad Nissan still sucks... I'd like a GT-R to go w/my RS4, but not when it costs an extra $20K+ to do it.

 

overpriced!!

 

These are some pretty weak improvements. Bigger gas tank, different logo on the brakes, oh yeah, and 5hp?
