Video Description

#nissan #jdm #gtr The car so powerful it practically ruined Toyota’s LFA experiment by beating it to market. And did it for a fifth the price. Today, even as Takumi in Japan are still assembling VR38DETTs with meticulous hands, the writing is on the wall. The end of the GT-R badge draws near once again. As it was in 1973, and 1999, The next generation of GT-R is not guaranteed.. Will there be another machine capable of adorning itself with those three small letters? The performance landscape has shifted since those humble beginnings in 2007. Today’s world of electrified hypercars and top dollar supercars begs us to ask once more… Does Nissan have another fight left in it? This is THE SQUIDD, a channel devoted to telling boring stories BOLDLY. Automotive icons, car company calamities, supercar legends and underdog heroes. All told through the lens of The Squidd, automotive content creator famous for being a dude with bad hair.
