Their off-the-wall designs and futuristic shapes look cool, but concepts aren\u2019t always drivable. A few years back, Nissan pulled back the curtain on its GT-R50 concept, a coach-built GT-R designed by Italdesign. Instead of the one-off concept going up for sale, the car you see here is one of 50 units <a href=\"http:\/\/ItalDesign begins delivering exclusive 710-hp Nissan GT-R50\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:2;\">Nissan\/Italdesign built for the road<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This GTR-50 is offered by <a href=\"https:\/\/legendarymotorcar.com\/inventory\/2021-nissan-gt-r-2457.aspx\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:3;\">Legendary Motorcar<\/a> in Ontario, Canada. It\u2019s number 11 of the planned 50, though the seller notes that only 19 have been built. Nissan <a href=\"http:\/\/Nissan GT-R50 still up for grabs one year after sales started ...\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:4;\">didn\u2019t close the order books<\/a> until July of this year but hasn\u2019t confirmed the production totals or the number of customer sales.<\/p>\n<p>The GTR-50 was a 50th birthday celebration for the GT-R nameplate and Italdesign, the shop responsible for penning the concept. People became so enamored with the car that Nissan agreed to build a limited run of 50 units. Though it\u2019s immediately recognizable as a GT-R, the GTR-50 is a sleeker coach-built car with more interesting lines and a funky optional rear hydraulic wing.<\/p>\n<p>Nissan <a href=\"http:\/\/Nissan GT-R50 by Italdesign packs 710 horsepower | Autoblog\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:5;\">modified the car\u2019s<\/a> twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter V6 engine with turbochargers from a GT-R GT3 car and massaged the internals with beefier pistons, a new crankshaft, and more. Those updates boosted output from the standard car\u2019s 565 ponies (2021 model) to 710 horsepower. Torque climbed to 585 pound-feet, almost 100 more than the standard car, and Nissan updated the six-speed dual-clutch gearbox to handle the power.<\/p>\n<p>Legendary Motorcar didn\u2019t publish pricing for the GT-R50, but it\u2019s a safe bet that it will sell for far more than the vast majority of people can afford. The 50 cars Nissan sold carried a starting price of around $1.1 million, and this car\u2019s odometer still shows delivery mileage. Given the recent excitement (and money) surrounding other rare car sales, this one could be quite a shocker.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Occasionally, a super-weird concept car or rare one-off coach-built model will cross an auction block or sales listing.
