Nissan: Video: Nissan GT-R, fun for the young at heart

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil – Nissan’s stance on “respecting your elders” just got real. The company put some Brazilian seniors behind the wheel of a GT-R sports car just as their drivers licenses are set to expire for good. Although Brazilian Traffic Code does not lay down a maximum driving age to get or renew a driver’s license, people above the age of 65 must pass a physical test every three years – and for some seniors in Brazil, that means their driving days may be behind them. So why not go out when driving one of the fastest production cars in the world?

With this emotional milestone in mind, Nissan Brasil presents “The Great Farewell.” In this special piece of content, seniors in Brazil take the wheel of a high-performance Nissan GT-R at a racetrack for an experience that’s packed with surprises (and smiles) from start to finish.

The video above has English subtitles on the bottom of the window in gray. View the video in full screen mode to enlarge the words.

 

The GT-R is Nissan’s iconic high-performance flagship, powered by a hand-crafted 3.8-liter V-6 twin-turbocharged engine  that provides adrenaline and excitement to drivers of any age.
