What you're witnessing here is a car that outpaces a Porsche 911 Turbo around the Nürburgring, a vehicle that, in its prime, commanded twice the price.

Even in its factory form, this legend boasts acceleration that will practically pin your eyes to your skull. So, what happens when you take this already iconic car and dial up the intensity? Well, you might just find out. This extraordinary specimen of the 2009 Nissan GT-R Premium has been custom-crafted to unleash a staggering 1030 horsepower, ready to answer that very question. Crafted by the masterful hands of Mack Bronson & The Shop in Houston, Texas, this specific GT-R was built for the prestigious Texas 2K24 event. With an awe-inspiring 1,031 horsepower and 778 lb-ft of torque at your control, it's no wonder this car commands attention.
Exterior and Interior

Adorned in sleek black, this 2009 Nissan GT-R Premium oozes performance from every angle. From the hood vents to the front spoiler, fender vents, and the strikingly designed grille, every detail speaks to its athletic prowess. Moving to the rear, the imposing rear wing, quad exhaust tips, and the iconic pie-shaped quad taillights solidify its aggressive stance. Custom Forged Multi-Piece OZ Racing Alloy Wheels, paired with new Michelin Super Sport 4S Tires (Front: 255/35/ZR21, Rear: 315/30/ZR21), deliver exceptional grip and handling. This GT-R boasts newly-installed yellow Brembo brake calipers for added visual and braking impact. Upon stepping into the interior of the 2009 Nissan GT-R Premium, one might mistake it for an ordinary car at first glance. However, nestled within the front buckets of perforated leather and anti-slip fabric, you'll find an array of toggle switches and a feature-rich infotainment system, revealing the true business-minded nature of this machine. For those seeking even more thrill, this GT-R offers easily adjustable boost levels up to 31 lbs with a convenient Dash Readout, putting the power at your fingertips.
