It looks like a new front end, most likely it's just a heavy refresh before the GTR goes EV.
If thats the case hopefully the drivetrain gets an update as well

Not only that, but we would have seen a ton of test mules driving around.

Here is the link to the press release.

With “evolving toward ultimate driving pleasure” as its product concept, the Nissan GT-R continues to enhance its status as a premium sports car. The new models represent the next level of balance between speed and ride quality. "Fronted with a new grille design, cutting-edge technologies and craftsmanship, the new models are the pinnacle of the GT-R R35," said Nissan COO Ashwani Gupta.

The models feature improved aerodynamics and a refined ride quality. While maintaining horsepower, noise and vibration have been reduced and the sound carefully tuned to enhance onboard comfort.

T-spec represents the GT-R’s philosophy of leading and shaping the times and is inspired by the words trend and traction. The GT-R T-spec has been created to always be ahead of the times and to drive with robust grip. The Nissan GT-R Premium edition T-spec is now equipped with specially set suspension and carbon disc brakes, delivering the pleasure of a smooth ride and responsive handling.

The Nissan GT-R NISMO maximizes the use of racing technologies. By refining aerodynamic performance, suspension tuning, and adding a mechanical limited-slip differential to the front final drive, this is the highest-performance GT-R ever. The exclusive Recaro carbon back bucket seats have been refreshed for enhanced drive quality, providing a unified feel with the car and increased comfort. The Nissan GT-R NISMO Special edition uses high-precision weight-balanced engine parts, such as piston rings, connecting rods, crankshaft, and a clear-coated NISMO-exclusive carbon engine hood (with NACA ducts).

Not a fan…the grey with red lines remind me of the i30, and that’s never a good thing even if it’s the sports model 🤣
And I know the GT has always been the muscular type, but the squared off look, looks to be even more severe…reminds me of a Bentley, also not a good thing 🤣

I remember watching a documentary on the design of the original GT-R and listening to the designers speak about how they believe they have crafted the perfect machine. And any revisions going into the future would only ever be minor adjustments and subtle changes, they never wanted to stray too far from the original design
