The Rarest Nissan R34 Skyline GT-R On The Planet Is Looking For A New Home
"The Z-Tune and V-Spec II are considered rare, but this particular model is even harder to find."
The Nissan GT-R Nismo may not be the rarest sports car on the road, but throughout the GT-R’s storied history, a few standout variants have been produced in extremely limited numbers. Among them, the Skyline GT-R V-Spec II commands respect for its performance pedigree, while the ultra-exclusive 2005 Skyline GT-R Z-Tune takes rarity to another level. Yet, there’s an even more elusive gem—the Nissan R34 Skyline GT-R V-Spec II Nismo Clubman Race Spec. Now, one of these exceedingly rare machines is hitting the market, offering collectors a unique chance to own a piece of GT-R history.
For those unfamiliar with this ultra-rare variant, only 19 examples of the V-Spec II Nismo Clubman Race Spec exist. What makes this Nissan R34 Skyline GT-R truly special is that it isn’t just a limited-edition model—it’s a full rebuild by Nismo themselves. Each unit is meticulously crafted to the original owner’s specifications, offering a high degree of customization. The transformation is so comprehensive that these cars roll out of Nismo’s Omori Factory with zero mileage, essentially making them brand-new GT-Rs with historic DNA.
One of Just 19 in Existence—At Least for Now
The rare Clubman Race Spec featured here is currently located in Dubai, offered for sale by F1rst Motors LLC, a dealership known for curating high-end exotic vehicles. Under its hood lies Nissan’s legendary GT-R inline-six engine, enhanced with Nismo’s R2 tuning package. This upgrade boosts performance to an impressive 450 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque. Power is delivered to all four wheels through the sophisticated ATTESA E-TS Pro all-wheel-drive system, paired with a precise 6-speed manual transmission—making this a truly driver-focused machine.
Visually, this Clubman Race Spec is a showstopper. It wears the full Nismo Z-Tune body kit, giving it a broader, more aggressive stance compared to a standard Nissan R34 Skyline GT-R. This particular example takes things even further with lightweight carbon fiber body panels, enhancing performance and aesthetics alike. Finishing it all off is a coat of Nissan’s legendary Midnight Purple III—a factory paint option revered for its rich, color-shifting hues and considered one of the most iconic OEM finishes ever offered.
Bring Your Checkbook—This GT-R Is No Ordinary Collector’s Car
While the listed performance figures are already impressive, they may actually be on the conservative side. Some Nismo Clubman Race Spec R34 builds are known to push close to 500 horsepower, underscoring just how bespoke each example can be. Specific tuning details for this car haven’t been disclosed, but it’s estimated to sprint from 0 to 62 mph in just 4.8 seconds and reach a top speed of 158 mph. Despite showing 25,300 miles on the odometer, the interior remains in near-mint condition. The cabin features a clean black finish, accented with red Nismo branding and premium carbon fiber components—true to the race-bred character of this rare GT-R.
If you’re considering bringing this 2001 Nissan R34 Skyline GT-R V-Spec II Nismo Clubman Race Spec home from Dubai, be prepared for a premium price. F1rst Motors hasn’t publicly listed the asking price on their website, so interested buyers will need to reach out directly for details. Rest assured, this isn’t your typical R34 GT-R that can now be legally imported into the U.S. In fact, previous examples have fetched prices exceeding $660,000—making it clear these rare machines come with a hefty price tag.
