Auto Trader has the latest pictures of the Nissan GT-R demonstrated at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.

The shots reveal a deep front air intake and quad pipe exhausts, hinting at the substantial power under the bonnet.

Formerly known as the Skyline GT-R, the replacement will be known simply as the GT-R. Nissan plans to take on Audi’s R8 with the machine.

No technical details have been revealed yet but a 4.5 litre V8 engine with 450bhp has been rumoured.

Nissan has been fine-tuning the car’s handling on the mighty Nürburgring Nordschleife.

The Japanese manufacturer will reveal the finished car at the Tokyo Motor Show in October.
