The 2024 Nissan GT-R lineup introduces two exclusive models, the T-spec Takumi Edition and the Skyline Edition, slated for release in the U.S. in “very limited numbers.” With distinctive paint options and interior color schemes, these special editions add allure to the iconic GT-R series.
The Takumi GT-R features Midnight Purple paint and a Mori Green interior, complemented by a gold-plated VIN and a red-scripted engine badge, paying homage to Japanese master craftsmen.
Meanwhile, the Skyline Edition, making its debut on American shores, boasts Bayside Blue paint and a new Sora Blue interior, resurrecting a color palette reminiscent of past generations.
Amid rumors surrounding the future of the R35-generation Nissan GT-R, the company unveils these unique models, hinting at a possible shift in the lineup. While Nissan remains tight-lipped about the speculated demise of the R35, the release of the 2025 Japanese GT-R in limited numbers adds fuel to the speculation.
Despite Car and Driver’s attempt to verify these rumors with Nissan’s U.S. team, the company declined to comment.
However, Nissan’s revelation of the T-spec Takumi and Skyline Editions offers enthusiasts a glimmer of excitement amidst the uncertainty.
Inspired by Japanese craftsmanship, the Takumi Edition embodies meticulous attention to detail, featuring premium upgrades such as carbon-ceramic brakes and gold-painted Rays forged 20-inch wheels. Its captivating Midnight Purple exterior and Mori Green interior set it apart as a true collector’s piece.
Meanwhile, the Skyline Edition pays tribute to the GT-R’s heritage with its iconic Bayside Blue paint and Sora Blue interior, evoking nostalgia for enthusiasts. While pricing and availability details for these special editions remain undisclosed, anticipation mounts as their release approaches this summer.
As enthusiasts eagerly await the arrival of these limited-production models, questions linger about their potential inclusion in the R35’s final model year, leaving enthusiasts intrigued and eager for more updates.
