A Nissan Juke R with the "crazy" GT-R engine can be purchased for just over $700,000.

Nissan's Juke R car hit the Internet early last year.

The car with the "heart" of a GT-R began as an autonomous project by Nissan's British employees and motorsport partners; it was unveiled as a concept in 2011 and proved so popular that, despite a six-figure price tag, five cars were produced and sold. five cars were produced and sold. was produced and sold.

And now the fifth and final car is up for sale. It can be purchased from the VDM Cars dealer in Gronau, Germany for $706,883. That seems like a lot of money, but remember that the original price was close to $600,000. And the Juke R for sale is practically brand new, with only 12 miles on the odometer, according to the James Edition website.

Designed by RML Group and built by tuning firm Severn Valley Motorsport, the Juke-R is powered by a 3.8-liter twin-turbo V6 from the R35-generation Nissan GT-R, a sophisticated all-wheel drive system and an FIA-compliant undercarriage. The all-wheel drive system and FIA framework make it unlike any other car on the planet. And we're not talking about the standard GT-R. The Juke R's engine has been modified and develops 690 horsepower.

The chassis has also been modernized. Key changes include an adjustable suspension with coilovers and new front and rear cross stabilizers. 20-inch wheels borrowed from the GT-R and an upgraded braking system were installed. In addition to all the upgrades, a custom carbon fiber dodger kit was also installed. The hood and rear spoiler are also made of carbon fiber.

The interior has also undergone significant changes, with the addition of a 4WD controller, a PS3 GT-R-like touchscreen, and a drive mode selector.

Finally, there is one more feature that makes this car special. This Juke-R is the only one of its kind that has been driven by someone other than Nissan. This is due to the fact that two of the five cars built were owned by Nissan and the other two were wrecked.
