Just imagine getting the keys to a Nissan GT-R during the winter season. We know we’d run out and do exactly what the driver in this video from YouTube user Vehicle Virgins is doing. More than 500 horsepower of twin-turbo grunt, one of the best all-wheel-drive systems in production, and an...

Remember when Nissan said it was serious about getting back into motorsports? So serious, in fact, it launched its racing marketing campaign during the 2015 Super Bowl with a very expensive ad? Well, seems things didn't quite work out and now, three days before Christmas, Nissan is killing the GT-R...

Soulless, ugly, and overweight. These are the three things I hear nearly every armchair-enthusiast fanboy say about the Nissan GT-R. The NISMO? It's scoffed at as an even more ridiculously priced Nissan with more boost and little else. All of those people are wrong. The jeers of the GT-R being...

Nissan’s GT-R NISMO is famous for having lapped the Nürburgring in only 7:08.679, making it the fastest production car at the German circuit that can be had for under a half a million bucks. What’s not so well known is the fact that upgrades made to the car to enable the incredible...

Everyone knows Paul Walker was an avid car fan, but the late actor wasn’t the only member of the Fast and the Furious family to have a penchant for cars. Sung Kang, who played the character Han in some of the movies, also has a love for cars, particularly classic Porsches. However, he also...

The Nissan Patrol isn’t sold in these parts, although we do get its Infiniti QX80 corporate cousin. That’s a shame because the Patrol is a much better looking vehicle than the ungainly QX, and now it’s even got a performance-oriented NISMO version. ALSO SEE: Acura Bringing...

Mercedes-Benz confirmed earlier in the year that it was working on a pickup truck, though whether or not the vehicle will make it to the United States is still up in the air. The new pickup is to be a mid-size model based on body-on-frame underpinnings common to pickups from Renault and Nissan...

Nissan’s controversial Gripz concept has finally made its auto show debut, and contrary to popular belief the sporty crossover doesn’t herald a replacement for Nissan’s 370Z. Instead, Nissan is using the Gripz to gauge interest in the potential of an expanded Z car family, one...
