Nissan GT-R Prototype Spied Testing at Nurburgring [Video]

Two official test cars from Nissan have been filmed going round the Nurburgring test track by Youtube user FastSportscarDriver. One is black and the other one is gray. The gray one is camouflaged at the front an rear, yet strangely there doesn’t seem to be anything new hidden under there, just the regular 2013MY body.

The 550 horsepower Nissan GT-R set a blistering time of 7 minutes and 24 seconds this year at the hands of Toshio Suzuki. However, there are a number of cars that might want to best that, like the new 911 Turbo or 2013 SRT Viper.

Nissan is probably trying to find a new setup for the 2014 model year that will allow it to keep its titles and bragging rights. The R35 GT-R has been with us since 2008, but a replacement is unlikely to come any time soon.
