Johnny Manziel, also known as Johnny Football, recently traded in his Titan SL for a brand-new 2015 GT-R! While the Nissan Titan is an awesome, hard-hitting truck, we can understand if Manziel wants a vehicle that better reflects his own swift performance on the field. Back in 2012 when he won the Heisman Trophy, Manning Award and a slew of other honors, he was considered the best player in college football. And over the past year, he's proved his worth as a dual-threat quarterback for the Cleveland Browns.
Although Manziel is a popular athlete, it's understandable that fans aren't just interested in his football skills. News about the car he drives has also captured interests. On Oct. 1, he posted a photo of his new ride on Instagram and last time we checked it had almost 67,000 likes.
If you're shopping for a 2015 Nissan GT-R in Decatur, Ill., you can select from Premium, Black Edition, Track Edition and high-performance Nismo models.
Johnny got a special Black Edition with a black interior and (according to a TMZ photo we saw floating around the Internet) a sleek Pearl White exterior. Black Edition trims also get black alloy wheels, Recaro sports seats, a carbon-fiber rear spoiler, and lots of tech and entertainment features, including a Bose sound system, Bluetooth phone/audio, heated front seats, active-noise cancelling and a rearview camera.
GT-R is one of the fastest production cars in the world, so clearly Manziel likes to move at high speed on and off the football field. If you're also a fan of performance and wouldn't mind driving the same "whip" as a star athlete, keep an eye out for the 2015 GT-R in Decatur - it's coming to Crown Nissan soon!
