If a racing world champion like Jenson Button was willing to swap his normal racing car for the NISSAN GT-R, then there must be something special about it. Yes, to start with, it is matt black, lending it a kind of menacing brilliance that is hard to describe but when you see it coming towards you, the feeling is that this is something very very special.
He used this car to see off his fiancée Jessica Michibata and onlookers could not help noticing the matt black supercar as it zoomed past them. To say that it looked great would be an understatement.
Usually, F1 champions opt for some of the more executive cars like the MERCEDES GL which another racing champion Lewis Hamilton did, but Jenson Button chose the stylish Nissan GT-R. Not that he does not have executive cars as he has been seen driving the Mercedes C63 A MG super-saloon. He is also the proud owner of the Mercedes CLK DTM AMG, the Ferrari Enzo, the FORD GT, the Ferrari 550 and the Porsche Carrera GT. All of them may have been purchased without any recourse to Car Loans or any form of Car Credit finance.
The Nissan GT-R however, with its 3.8 liter engine and 480bhp has been a superb performer.
