Since Paul Walker’s iconic portrayal of the R34 Nissan GT-R on the silver screen, few tuner brands have captured the hearts of enthusiasts quite like the Nissan Skyline GT-R. With the R34s becoming increasingly sought-after following the 25-year import law milestone, it’s no wonder that enthusiasts are eagerly seizing the opportunity to own this legendary car. In the midst of this fervor, Mecum Auctions is gearing up to showcase a truly unique version of the Nissan GT-R in the upcoming month: a 2002 Nissan Skyline GT-R M Spec Nür that is federally street legal for driving. This rare gem promises to ignite excitement among collectors and enthusiasts alike as it makes its grand debut on the auction stage. The last one we could find sold on bringatrailer.com last January for a staggering $455,000!
What makes the GT-R M-Spec Nür so special? This is a special edition variant of the Nissan GT-R. The “Nür” in its name pays homage to the famous Nürburgring circuit in Germany, where the GT-R underwent extensive testing and development. It features several enhancements over the standard GT-R, including upgraded suspension, brakes, and aerodynamics. The interior also received special treatment, with high-quality materials and additional features for comfort and convenience. One notable feature of the GT-R M-Spec Nür is its engine. It is powered by a Nismo modified twin-turbocharged 2.6L inline six engine, which produces impressive performance figures, making it a formidable competitor on both the road and the track.
Scheduled to grace the stage at Mecum Auctions in Glendale, Arizona, this pristine example of automotive engineering represents more than just a car it’s a symbol of passion, dedication, and relentless pursuit of perfection. With only 24 units ever produced in black paint, this particular Skyline GT-R M Spec Nür stands as a testament to exclusivity and rarity.
With its all-original paint and hasn’t been molested with aftermarket parts, it stands as a pristine representation of the Skyline GT-R’s heritage. Every curve, every contour, bears witness to the meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into its creation. One of the most incredible things about this GT-R is that it’s street legal to drive in the U.S. even without meeting the 25 year import vehicle law giving any enthusiast the ability to appreciate it on the open roads.
As it prepares to cross the auction block at Mecum Auctions, the 2002 Nissan Skyline GT-R M Spec Nür this car stands as an iconic piece of tuner history. We anticipate that this car will go to similar price that bringatrailer auction did a year ago for close to half a million dollars.
