With upgraded turbos, a flex-fuel conversion, and about 14,700 miles, it is on Cars and Bids at $100,000 with four days to go.2020 Nissan GT-R 50th Anniversary EditionCars & BidsWhat it's worth right nowThe 50th Anniversary Edition is among the most desirable R35 GT-Rs, but modifications change the value equation. According to Kelley Blue Book and current dealer listings, stock low-mileage 50th Anniversary examples generally trade from around $150,000 into the low $180,000s, a significant premium over the roughly $122,000 they cost new.AdvertisementAdvertisementThis car sits apart from those stock cars. Its heavy modifications add performance but reduce collectability, and the disclosed damage entry and emissions considerations detailed below temper value further, so it should be priced as a modified car rather than a preserved collector example.2020 Nissan GT-R 50th Anniversary EditionCars & BidsWeighing the desirable Bayside spec and big-power build against those points, fair value realistically lands in the $95,000 to $130,000 range, most likely around $105,000 to $120,000. At $100,000 with four days remaining, the bidding should climb into that band.Condition and detailsThe car is a striking, heavily built example. Finished in Bayside Blue over gray, it runs the hand-built 3.8-liter twin-turbo V6, rated at 565 horsepower in stock form, through the six-speed dual-clutch and ATTESA all-wheel drive, and it carries Brembo brakes and Bilstein DampTronic suspension. The Carfax shows it has been registered in Southern states since new.2020 Nissan GT-R 50th Anniversary EditionCars & BidsThe modifications are the central consideration. The selling dealer reports upgraded turbochargers, a flex-fuel E85 conversion, 20-inch Rohana wheels, a 50th Anniversary stripe and rear-badge delete, a digital cluster, and an aftermarket infotainment system. These add real power, the dealer says similar builds make 780 to 820 wheel horsepower on E85, but no dyno sheet was provided for this car, so treat the power as unverified, and note the stripe and badge delete remove some of the 50th's signature identity. The mods also reduce collectibility versus a stock car.2020 Nissan GT-R 50th Anniversary EditionCars & BidsTwo more important points. The car may not pass emissions in some states, with factory emissions equipment reportedly removed, so confirm exactly what was taken off, whether the factory tune and turbos can be reinstalled, and your state's requirements before bidding, a California buyer raised exactly these questions. And the Carfax notes minor damage in August 2020, plus some curb rash on the wheels, so inspect both. The dealer has a set of original wheels that can be negotiated into the deal, and a pre-purchase inspection is essential.2020 Nissan GT-R 50th Anniversary EditionCars & BidsAdvertisementAdvertisementThe offerSpecificationDetailMakeNissanModelGT-R 50th Anniversary EditionYear2020Mileage14,700 milesEngineTwin-turbocharged 3.8-liter V6Power565 hp and 467 lb.ft of torque stock, more as modifiedTransmission6-speed dual-clutchDrive typeAll-wheel driveExterior colorBayside BlueInterior colorGrayCurrent bid$100,000, with four days leftInterested in this 2020 Nissan GT-R 50th Anniversary Edition?

The 50th Anniversary Edition, marking half a century of the GT-R badge, is best known for reviving Bayside Blue, the vivid, deep-shifting color made famous by the R34 Skyline, applied here through a four-coat, double-heat-treatment process and contrasted with white racing stripes. Beyond the paint, it adds unique interior trim, badging, and finishing touches that celebrate the car's motorsport heritage.2020 Nissan GT-R 50th Anniversary EditionCars & BidsThat combination of ferocious, all-weather performance and the most iconic color in the GT-R's history is what makes the 50th Anniversary Edition so coveted. In modified form as this one is, it trades some of that collector appeal for a substantial jump in power, appealing to a buyer who wants Godzilla at its most brutal.My takeThis is a seriously fast, seriously eye-catching GT-R. Bayside Blue is the color every R35 fan wants, and the 50th Anniversary treatment makes it special, while the turbo and E85 build turns an already-quick car into a genuine monster for a buyer who prioritizes power. If that is what you are after, this is a lot of GT-R.AdvertisementAdvertisementFair value sits in the $95,000 to $130,000 range, below stock 50th Anniversary money precisely because the modifications, while adding power, narrow the collector pool. Go in clear-eyed: get the emissions situation fully documented and confirm you can register it in your state, ask for a dyno to substantiate the power, inspect the minor-damage history and curb rash, and negotiate the original wheels into the deal. Handle that homework, and you have a distinctive, big-power Godzilla in its most iconic color.Disclaimer: This post is for informational purposes only. We are not a dealership or broker.
