LEGO on the fast track with a Nissan GT-R Nismo

With a £150,000 price tag, it’s clear the Nissan GT-R Nismo is not a car for driving to the supermarket and back quickly when you run out of milk. The fact that renowned LEGO car builder Firas Abu-Jaber built a LEGO version and said it was his favourite car, makes it even more apparent that this is a special vehicle. The name Nismo is just a contraction of Nissan Motorsport, and this supercar is all about speed, control, and performance on the track. Firas’ LEGO version is brilliantly accurate with some skilled building techniques used to get the shaping and the coloured components spot-on.

It’s worth taking a look at the booty, to see details such as a red Technic gear used for the rear lights and admire the shapely form of this LEGO car.

As if that was not enough, the doors, hood, and trunk open allowing a peek at the snazzy red and black interior and the impressive LEGO version of the 3799cc 24v twin-turbocharged V6 engine.
