Despite the fact that the Nissan GT-R Nismo has been with us for a while, the Japanese supercar hadn't received the Doug DeMuro analysis. You know, the review loaded with quirks and features. Well, that time has now come and we've brought along the footage showcasing the adventure.
You might be wondering what are the dangerous points of a supercar that will set you back $180,000. Well, as Doug will enthusiastically point out, Godzilla might just hurt your pinkie, at least if you don't pay attention to the owner manual.

In fact, there are even more ways in which the Nissan halo car can hurt your fingers. You see, as any modern supercars, the R35 is loaded with sensors, but, since this is a bit of gaming console on wheels, it also allows the driver to see all the info delivered by those sensors. It's just that you need strong fingers to scroll through all the configurable menus.

But wait, there's more (it's actually less, so allow us to explain)

Ladies and gentlemen drivers, there are some key quirks and features of the Nissan GT-R Nismo that Doug didn't mention in his review and we'll list two of them here.

The first involves the handling. You see, the all-capable AWD hardware of the GT-R has allowed engineers to calibrate the electronic control software in a way that makes the handling unique. As such, the car constantly allows a bit of wheelspin to make the driving experience engaging, but the driver barely feels this, due to the delicate intervention of the nannies.

We must also mention that when adjusting the steering wheel on the vertical axis, this moves with the entire gauge cluster. Sure, there are plenty of standard Nissan models that feature this, but it's still uncommon enough to raise eyebrows.
