Olympics Legend Usain Bolt Wants Another Triple, This Time His Third Nissan GTR

After winning three gold medals in this year's Rio Olympics, Usain Bolt, the fastest man on earth wants to achieve another triple - he wants his third Nissan GT-R. 

Bolt, the Jamaican sprinter who just won the gold medal in the Men's 4x100m relay, Men's 200m and Men's 100m event in the Olympics has the world record with marks of 9.58 and 19.19 seconds respectively is so passionate about four wheels fast sports cars. It makes sense that the fastest man would want the fastest rides.

Bolt usually drives a Ferrari 599 with a 12 engine of 620 hp and manages to go from 0 to 100 km / h in 3.7 seconds. He also owns a BMW M3 - which in it he already experienced three accidents but lucky enough to be unscathed - as well as a Range Rover, Ford Raptor and a Subaru Impreza. But his favorite car model is his two Nissan GT-Rs which he said has been his dream car - together with Lamborghini Aventador - eversince he was young.

In an interview with Sun Motors, Bolt said, "I checked it out with Powell (another Jamaican athelete) and it was just the ultimate car. So I got one with black as its color" 

"It's just so special that I park it in the middle of my garage together with my other cars" Bolt added

Bolt's second Nissan GTR was then given as a gift by Nissan after his triple gold medal at London Olympics last 2012. Nissan gives him full customization and he chose Gold as its exterior color and white as its interior. The interior's color is a pretty bad decision for Bolt as it's a huge task to let it stay clean. Once a Gatorade bottle spilled inside his GTR and it took days to be cleaned. There was even an instance where one of his friends accidentally threw up at the back of it.

"I would not advise anybody to get a white interior. It looks nice but it stains a lot."

Now, Bolt is eyeing his third Nissan GTR with colors probably representing his nation and Bolt cant wait to use it and push the limit to race. However, his advisers are saying that he cant use the GTR to race unless he insured his legs, which will cost about a million dollars a year.
