No-Reserve 2014 Nissan GT-R Black Edition Pairs 545 HP With a Freshly Upgraded TransmissionA high-mileage but seemingly well-sorted 2014 Nissan GT-R Black Edition is currently up for bid at no reserve on Cars & Bids, giving enthusiasts a shot at Godzilla with some meaningful mechanical work already sorted out. Finished in Pearl White over a black-and-red cabin, the coupe has covered roughly 144,600 miles, yet the selling dealer says the factory transmission was proactively sent out for a ShepTrans Stage 1 upgrade, a detail that matters a great deal to GT-R shoppers who know how expensive gearbox repairs can get on this platform.The R35 generation arrived for the 2009 model year and quickly earned its Godzilla nickname for the way it humbled far pricier machinery on track days and back roads alike. Power in this Black Edition comes from Nissan's 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged V6, rated at 545 horsepower and 463 lb-ft of torque, sent to all four wheels through a six-speed dual-clutch automatic. The Black Edition trim added a few visual and performance touches over the standard Premium car, including 20-inch Rays forged wheels, a carbon fiber rear spoiler, Brembo brake calipers, and heated Recaro seats trimmed in leather.Beyond the transmission work, the listing notes an aftermarket midpipe, a blow-off valve, and a set of lowered springs. A Carfax report attached to the listing shows no mileage discrepancies and a clean Georgia title, though it does flag a minor damage event from May 2025, and the seller discloses the usual cosmetic wear expected on a car with this many miles, including some curb rash on the wheels and a weathered front grille. Recent service history includes a four-wheel alignment, fresh tires on multiple occasions, and a transmission rebuild performed by the selling dealer, a certified dealership based in Marietta, Georgia.AdvertisementAdvertisementFor buyers trying to gauge whether the current bid makes sense, Hagerty's valuation tools peg a 2014 GT-R Black Edition in number-3, or Good, condition at roughly $72,900, a figure that has held essentially flat over the past year. Hagerty's data also shows real spread in what these cars actually bring at auction: sales over the past three years have ranged from $57,225 up to $116,025, with roughly three dozen public sales recorded in that window. That range underscores how much originality, mileage, and modification history sways price on the R35 market, and it's worth running any comparable GT-R through Hagerty's valuation tools before bidding with confidence.As of this writing, the no-reserve auction sits at $50,000 with bidding scheduled to close on July 27, meaning there's still time for the number to climb well past Hagerty's average condition figure. It's a reminder of just how active the GT-R market remains right now.
