Overview of the Nissan GT-R Premium Edition T-spec
This 2024 Nissan GT-R Premium Edition T-spec is offered at USS Yokohama as lot 20023 on 13 October 2026. It is a near new example of the R35, first registered in February 2024 (Reiwa 6), finished in pearl white with colour code QAB and showing just 290 kilometres, approximately 180 miles. It carries an overall auction grade of 5 and an interior grade of A, which places it at the top of the scale for a used car.
The T-spec sits at the sharp end of the late R35 range. The sheet lists NISMO sports resetting, carbon ceramic brakes, a BOSE sound system and genuine navigation, and the photographs show bronze wheels with yellow calipers, a carbon centre console and a tall rear wing. For anyone who wants the final form of the Nissan GT-R with almost no use on the clock, this is a serious proposition.
The Drive Review
The R35 is built around the hand assembled 3.8 litre twin turbo V6 known as the VR38DETT, driving all four wheels through a rear mounted dual clutch six speed automatic. The gearbox sits at the back with the transfer case, which gives the car its unusual weight distribution and its ferocious traction. Pull the paddle and the shift is quick and mechanical, though at low speed the transaxle can clunk and whirr in a way that surprises people used to a torque converter.
What defines the GT-R is how it flattens distance. Launch is violent, mid range thrust from the turbos is relentless, and the chassis stays composed through quick corners because the front and rear axles share the work. It is a heavy car and you feel that in tight turns, but the grip and stability are extraordinary. Unlike many modern performance cars it is also mechanical in feel, with a chorus of whines, thumps and turbo noise that reminds you it is a machine rather than an appliance.
The T-spec is aimed at a slightly more cultured drive than the NISMO, with lightweight touches and fine tuning of the set up, while the NISMO sports resetting noted on this sheet points to a sharper engine and transmission calibration. We cannot confirm exactly what that resetting involves beyond the sheet wording.

The equipment marks and sales points are listed above. The notes also state that the owner's manual, warranty booklet, spare key and locking wheel nut will be sent on separately. The spare tyre circle carries no mark. The first choice section has domestic regular circled, and the member number at the bottom is partly cut off, appearing to read U-2416, which is not certain.
The inspector has written no fault comments. There is no mention of engine noise, transmission issues, leaks, warning lights, air conditioning faults, rust, accident repair, smoke or odour.
Damage Diagram and Body Condition
The diagram carries only three marks. A1 on the front bumper is a small scratch. On the left side, beside the doors in the sill area, there is an A, a scratch written without a size number, and the exact grading is not certain. On the right side, also in the sill area, there is an A1, a small scratch, again not entirely certain. The leader lines point to the strips beside the doors, which we read as the sill area.
There are no dents, repair marks, replaced panels, rust or glass damage marked. The photographs show clean, glossy pearl paint with no obvious flaws, consistent with the grade 5. With the sill and bumper scratches being minor, this is collector grade condition for a driver, subject to inspection on arrival.
Interior Condition
The interior is graded A. The photographs show the front seats in dark half leather and fabric trim with light stitching, an alcantara style dash top, carbon trim around the gear selector and a clean touchscreen. The rear seats appear in leather with no visible wear or marks, and the cabin shows no visible staining or damage. The sheet records no smoke, odour or damage comments. Interior colour is blank on the sheet.
Japanese Auction Grades
Auction grades run from 1 to 5, with 5 representing a near new vehicle with no notable faults. Interior grade A is the best on the interior scale. Together with 290 km they suggest a car that has barely been used.
Model History
The R35 Nissan GT-R was launched in Japan in late 2007 and has been developed continuously ever since. Output, cooling, suspension tuning and interior quality all improved through its long run, with significant refreshes along the way. The T-spec arrived as a more luxurious and refined variant using lighter parts and special colours, while the NISMO sat above it as the track focused model. This car, built in 2024, belongs to the final phase of the model.
Why This Model Has Become Collectible
The R35 is the end of a lineage that began with the Skyline GT-R, and Nissan has confirmed the production run is ending after nearly two decades. The twin turbo VR38DETT engine was hand assembled, the performance remains extremely strong, and the all wheel drive chassis gives a unique driving experience. Low mileage cars with complete service books are increasingly hard to find in Japan, and demand from buyers around the world is strong. As a T-spec in pearl white with carbon ceramic brakes, it is among the most desirable late specifications. We cannot guarantee future values and this should not be seen as an investment.
What To Look For When Buying This Model
On the R35, the dual clutch transmission is the key item. Listen for clunks or whines at low speed, and ask for a service record covering the transmission and transfer fluids, which differ from standard oils. Early cars suffered from launch control concerns, and the wear of the rear mounted transaxle is worth discussing with a specialist. The VR38DETT is strong, but turbo condition and boost control are worth checking on any car with tuning, so ask what the NISMO sports resetting covers on this one.
Carbon ceramic brakes are impressive but costly to replace, so check the discs for chipping and wear. On this particular car, only 290 km is shown, so the real task is to confirm that the paperwork, which the sheet says will follow separately, arrives complete, and to inspect the sill area scratches in person.
Why Import This Car From Japan
Japan is where the R35 was built and sold new, and the best late cars with low mileage and full records often come through domestic auctions. The auction sheet gives a clear independent assessment, which is rarely available on cars sold elsewhere.

Auction Caution
Auction cars are inspected before sale but are still used vehicles. The auction sheet is an independent condition guide, not a mechanical warranty. This car is graded 5 with only small scratches noted on the front bumper and both sill areas, but the owner's manual, warranty booklet, spare key and locking wheel nut are recorded as being sent separately, so their arrival is not confirmed. High performance cars such as the GT-R may need servicing or maintenance after purchase.
