Nissan GT-R given the velvet glove interior treatment by Vilner

Filed under: Coupe, Performance, China, Europe, Nissan, Design/Style



Bulgarian customizing house Vilner is good at creating evocative, high-quality, one-off vehicle interiors for its deep-pocketed customers. It is not, however, particularly adept at composing intelligible press releases in English. (Seriously, even if you don't generally look through pressers, this one is worth your two minutes.)

The subject in question this time is a Nissan GT-R with a distinct dragon motif. Created for a wealthy Chinese client, this Year of the Dragon Godzilla has impressive quilting in the shape of scales, a monstrous and complexly embroidered dragon on the headliner, a similar treatment inside the trunklid and red accents as far as the eye can see. The matte white finish you see is some kind of wrap, rather than paint, as Vilner makes it clear (in an unclear way) that this GT-R started out as a red one.

We're told that performance via horsepower to the wheels has been increased, as well. A new exhaust is the only performance upgrade that is specifically called out.

The gallery of mostly interior images is worth a look. Just try not to get creeped out by the dead-eyed, red-sneakered model that pops up in a few of them.Continue reading Nissan GT-R given the velvet glove interior treatment by Vilner

The red on the dash makes it look cheep. Less red and it would look better....headliner = NO.

I rather see a full Carbon fiber interior. Please I don't want to see a Loui Vuitton interior.
