The Nissan 370Z and GT-R have gotten more - lately than your lavish aunt’s nails, perhaps as a distraction from how old they are. One of the latest is a 50th-anniversary GT-R, which, in the UK, will get a paint color plucked from retirement for a mere $9,000 over the regular price.

Nissan UK pricing for the anniversary GT-R on Monday, saying each will go for 92,995 pounds, or about $117,500 at current exchange rates. That’s just under $9,000 more than the Prestige trim the special edition is based off of, which in the UK at current exchange rates.
