Collaborative GT-R model commemorating the 50th anniversary of birth
Recently, I haven't been out in the city because the state of emergency has been announced again, but I had a little business on this day and had the opportunity to walk in Ginza for the first time in a while.
When that happened, I stopped by here, Nissan Crossing.

Formula E's vehicle "NISSAN FORMULA E" welcomes you first.
However, this was not the purpose for which I stopped by this Nissan Crossing this time.

I wanted to meet this one that was on display in the back ...
so!
The GR-R50 by Italdesign was jointly developed to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the birth of GT-R and Italdesign in 2019 and 2018, respectively.

It's a test car.
This Italdesign GT-R50 is based on the latest GT-R NISMO and is equipped with a 3.8-liter V6 VR38 DETT engine that boasts a maximum output of 720 horsepower.

This Nissan GT-R50 By Italdesign, which will be sold only for 50 units worldwide, is an amazing model with more than 100 million units.
The test car on display this time is a test car made with the same specifications as the GT-R50 on the market, and it seems to be a real test car that has undergone various tests from the city to the circuit.

The impression is completely different due to the difference in body color
Even so, I thought that this GT-R50 would make a tremendous difference in its appearance just because the coloring of the body was different.
This test car I saw this time is black x white. That's why it's such an image ↓

And here isGT-R50 I was watching at the same place in October 2018.. The impression is completely different! ↓

This is a test car of Italdesign GT-R50, but it seems that it will be exhibited at Nissan Crossing @ Ginza until March 31, 2021, so if you are interested, please come ^ ^

I want to know the greatness of GT-R someday
Even so, I've always wondered if the GT-R is a really great car.
Because, there are really many people around me who own or have run Porsche and other manufacturers' cars and say "GT-R is the best". is.

Unfortunately, I still only "sit in the driver's seat of a parked exhibition car", so I don't really understand how great it is. sad….
However, there are so many people around me who say "GT-R is good", so I would like to feel its greatness and goodness once. This is also one of my dreams ^^

Is the lion of Ginza Mitsukoshi more conscious?
Last but not least, Ginza Mitsukoshi is in front of Nissan Crossing.
I usually go to the department store by car, and I don't often see the department store from the entrance (what?) From the road surface, so I was surprised to see Ginza Mitsukoshi.
Because that lion was masking! !! !! ^^ with Mitsukoshi mark

Wow, I thought that Mitsukoshi's lion is also masking properly now, so I was curious and just saw Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi this time on the same day, that? The lions of Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi did not ...

It was a day when I was able to discover "So what?" (Laughs). Even so, by hiding the mouth, I can understand the wonderful thing about this lion's eyes.
Italdesign of GT-R50 is 50 units in the world, but how many units will come into Japan? Is there a lot of delivery to Japan only for Japanese cars? Isn't that the case ...
I think we have to wait for a miracle to see if there is an opportunity to pass the actual car in the city, but I look forward to that day coming someday.
