Most enthusiasts will remember Nissan’s R34 Skyline GT-R due to its video game greatness and movie appeal. The Nür editions of that time became shorthand for the ultimate factory versions of Nissan’s last Skyline GT-R, and such cars tend to fetch premium prices on the auction circuit. Yet there’s another GT-R star in town that comes from the generation immediately before the R34. Only 44 examples of the Nismo 400R ever appeared, and these vehicles are now hammering for up to seven figures, turning them into the ultimate factory-backed GT-R derivative on the collector scene.
