With nearly two decades of production, the R35-generation Nissan GT-R has cemented its legacy as one of Japan’s most legendary high-performance cars. While enthusiasts eagerly await the official reveal of the next-generation R36 GT-R, Nissan has joined hands with 7-Eleven and Hot Wheels to offer something special in the meantime. The result is the Hot Wheels Silver Series GT-R, featuring a unique 7-Eleven-inspired livery. The association between 7-Eleven and the automotive world stretches back almost as long as the brand’s own history, but its strong connection with car culture truly began in Japan. Beyond being a convenient stop for late-night snacks or car meetups, the store’s vibrant lighting has made it a favourite backdrop for automotive photography. In recent years, 7-Eleven has fully embraced its role in car culture, showcasing vehicles prominently across social platforms. This marks the second collaboration between 7-Eleven and Hot Wheels, following last year’s debut of the Silver Series Toyota Supra, which featured its own custom 7-Eleven design.

This year’s edition takes inspiration from the facelifted R35 and offers more intricate detailing than the average Hot Wheels model, in line with its Silver Series status. The car features a crisp white base coat with bold 7-Eleven graphics, complemented by realistic taillights and authentic front badging. The result is a striking miniature that any 1:64 scale collector would be proud to add to their collection. And unlike the real GT-R, this one comes with a price tag that’s easy on the wallet—just $7.11.

Collectors and fans can purchase the Hot Wheels Silver Series 2017 Nissan GT-R at participating 7-Eleven, Speedway, and Stripes outlets. It’s also available for online purchase through 7Collection.com. With several eye-catching 7-Eleven-themed items on offer, it’s worth a visit. The only question left is—which JDM legend should 7-Eleven and Hot Wheels collaborate on next?
