2020 Nissan GT-R 50th Anniversary Edition brings another birthday party to NYC

This special supercar commemorates the Nissan Skyline GT-R that began production in 1969.

Manuel Carrillo III
A Porsche 911 S brought Manuel Carrillo III home from the hospital after he was born, so it's no surprise his lifelong trajectory has centered on cars, leading him to a robust career creating rich automotive media for publications prior to joining CNET.

The Southern California native briefly lived in Sydney, and is proud to have developed a barely passable Aussie accent. He also serves on the board of directors of the Motor Press Guild. When not reviewing cars or nerding out on OEM premium audio, you can find manual-labor-averse Manuel doing his best to convince his closest friends to fix the very Porsche that delivered him home.

Fifty years ago, Nissan began building the Skyline GT-R.

From sporty coupe to supercar, it's amazing what 50 years can do.

The Bayside (Wangan) Blue certainly pops.

GT-R fans will remember this color last seen on the R34-generation Skyline GT-R.

The 50th Anniversary Edition really amounts to just an appearance package.

This subdued lighting definitely helps with the otherwise in-your-face aesthetic.

The gray interior is more subdued, and more attractive, as a result.

Seriously, this is my new favorite GT-R interior color, and it's not restricted to just the 50th Anniversary Edition.

The two-tone appearance is inspired by liveries from Japan's GP series.
