# Photoshopped Meme Cars Nissan Shows Deadmau5 What His New GT-R Nyan Cat Car Could Look Like By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2014-09-07 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nyan-cat-car References: [technabob](http://technabob.com/blog/2014/09/05/nissan-deadmau5-nyan-cat-gt-r/) & [twitter](https://twitter.com/Nissan/status/507284221778726912) After Ferrari threw a fit at Deadmau5's custom Nyan Cat car wrap—even going so far as to send a cease-and-desist—it didn't take long for another automaker to step up and offer its services. Deadmau5 sold his car and in response to this, Nissan send out a tweet that stated "heard what happened to your car. Good news? We found a replacement, ready right meow." Along with the tweet was a Photoshopped picture of Nissan's GT-R model, proudly bearing the flying Pop Tart-shaped cat and rainbow tail. There's also a detail shot that shows a small Deadmau5 logo has been added under the GT-R logo on the car. Since Nissan was so quick to jump on this opportunity, the tweet has been shared and favorited thousands of times, making it the purr-fect response. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.8/10 - Popularity: 73% | Activity: 92% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Custom Car Wraps:** There is a growing trend in the automotive industry for custom car wraps, providing opportunities for businesses to offer unique and personalized designs. - **Social Media Marketing:** The use of social media platforms, such as Twitter, to respond quickly and creatively to current events and viral trends is becoming a popular marketing strategy. - **Brand Collaboration:** Collaboration between brands, such as Nissan and Deadmau5, presents a disruptive innovation opportunity to create unique and attention-grabbing products. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Automotive:** The automotive industry can capitalize on the trend of custom car wraps by offering specialized services and products. - **Marketing and Advertising:** The marketing and advertising industry can provide expertise on leveraging social media platforms for creative and viral brand responses. - **Entertainment:** The entertainment industry can explore potential collaborations with brands to create unique merchandise and promotional campaigns. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Automaker Video Game Collaborations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nissan-x-rocket-league.md) - [Anime Creature-Inspired Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pikachu-aceman.md) - [Conceptual Electric Sportscars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/r32ev-concept-model.md) - [Playful Art Character Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/porsche-labubu-project.md) - [Electrified Supercar Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nissan-hyper-force.md) - [Sneaker-Resembling Electric SUVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/327-edition.md) - [Generative Art-Wrapped Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kaoru-tanaka.md) - [Collaborative Gaming-Brand Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/razer-lexus-tx.md) - [Pop Artist-Designed Auction Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/850i-xdrive-gran-coupe.md)
