In a bid to raise funds for Usain Bolt's charity, a one-off GT-R has been made which has interiors with an embossed signature of the Olympic champion coupled with fittings finished in real gold. The gold supercar will be auctioned on eBay to raise funds for Bolt’s charity, which supports children and young people in Jamaica.

Bolt is the brand ambassador and ‘Director of Excitement’ for Nissan. As part of its involvement, Nissan will develop a series of limited-run GT-R models which will be available around the world.

According to Nissan, Bolt has been developing his own “Bolt GT-R” after testing various models at Nissan’s proving ground in Oppama, Japan.
