Nice to see it has a worthy owner too - Erik Comas is an ex-F1 driver who drove for Ligier and Larrousse and won the F3000 championship in 1990. He also won the All-Japan Grand Touring Car Championship twice in row in a Skyline GT-R for NISMO.

Only one of these cars were street legal, and it's sitting in the Nismo showroom in Japan. As for McLaren purchasing the rights, they did. However it was specifically for the Tom Walkinshaw Racing engine that was built out of Nissan's engine. McLaren's cars are junk from what I've seen. Their quality control isn't great so you end up with a lot of messed up manufacturing on the construction of the cars themselves. For that money it's a travesty. The engines might be good, but the cars not as much. It's not the same company it was when they produced the F1. Whenever a company has an amazing product that's successful, and then they move into higher volume production it's usually at the cost of quality.

You know you see something special, when you don't notice a F40 until 1:48min into the video

When you say 'derived' one must clarify how far away the Mclaren M838T engine actually is from this Nissan unit, and that is very far away indeed. These racing units were Nissan designed, then Tom Walkinshaw enhanced. It was vastly changed after this for for the touted Indycar usage. Then those units ended up in the hands of Mclaren and Ricardo, who just used them as test beds and tinkered with them while they did a clean sheet design of their own for the M838T. There's nothing really in Mclaren's engine apart from the original bore size that remained. It's kind of like claiming a Boeing 747 is derived from the Wright flyer because they have wings. Well yes in the most pedantic sense of the word, but also no. Ricardo looked at the engine and saw what worked then just built their own for the 21st century. It's not even really an improved copy or anything.

About as rare as it gets 😍

Legend has it that back when Nissan made the single R390 road car for homologation they offered to make other ones to the public at one million dollars a piece but nobody went for it. Anyway, I absolutely adore the turbo sounds this engine makes.

The Nissan R390 GT1 was a racing car built in Atsugi, Japan. It was designed primarily to gain a suitable racing entry in the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1997 and 1998. It was built to race under the grand touring style rules, requiring a homologated road version to be built. Therefore, the R390 was built originally as road car, then a racing version of the car was developed afterwards. Only one R390 road car was ever built and is stored at Nissan's Zama facility. The road car was claimed to be capable of attaining a top speed of 354 km/h (220 mph). However, this claim has never been proven. 😍
