Nissan added 17 items to their GT-collection in U.S. The Japanese automaker provides all the different accessories which will show off the Nissan owner everywhere he goes. The new collection includes gloves, key-rings, T-shirts, etc.
Nissan GT-R was represented in black with metallic parts and this is why the whole collection is made with carbon fiber. The items can be good for any kind of driver. A businessman could use a GT wallet or a briefcase; an ordinary Nissan fan will like a T-shirt, key-ring or gloves. And some cool guys might really like a GT leather hat.
Although these kinds of things will advertise Nissan production in all the places, the items are not as cheap as they might have been. A shirt is offered for more than $100 and a briefcase costs above $1,000. If you plan to be a Nissan fan, you won’t only pay a “good” price for Nissan GT-R, but will also spend a fortune on the accessories.
