Nissan KPGC110 Gulf Livery TM645611
The Nissan KPGC110, more affectionately known as the "Kenmeri GT-R," stands as one of the most enigmatic and coveted chapters in the illustrious Skyline GT-R lineage. Launched in 1973 as the second-generation GT-R, it inherited the legendary S20 twin-cam 2.0-liter straight-six engine from its Hakosuka predecessor, promising uncompromised performance. Its production run, however, was tragically cut short almost immediately due to the 1973 oil crisis, resulting in a mere 197 units ever built. This extreme rarity, coupled with its distinctive styling – particularly the iconic four round taillights that would become a GT-R hallmark – cemented its legendary status. The "Kenmeri" moniker itself derives from the immensely popular Japanese television commercial for the C110 Skyline, which featured a young couple named Ken and Mary and their memorable catchphrase, "The Skyline for Ken & Mary." Today, the KPGC110 GT-R is not merely a car; it is a profound piece of automotive history, a symbol of a performance era abruptly halted, and an immensely valuable collector's item sought after by enthusiasts worldwide.
