Is This The END Of The Nissan GTR?

- 17 years into production and Nissan is just about ready to release the final refresh of the R35.
I borrowed the 2023 T-spec and took it for a drive down to Hakone to remind myself why this car was just so special.
But what will the future hold? Will the lineage continue? How will it all pan out?

I've said it before but the cinematography from this channel's really on another level. It's like a sophisticated "cars & coffee" vibe every time I watch. Love that.
❤️
The R35 has aged well. I remember being disappointed at its weight and size when it launched. As everything has got heavier, today it seems just fine.
Which is why I think it will become a collector car. The nose diving sales exactly mimics the end of R34’s sales back in 2002.
The GTR you shot in this video looks especially nice yo me!.Watching this clip on a 4K TV, I can really appreciate those details,colors,and light reflections.
i still want one
You need one for the collection!
Damn what a nice shot of the r35 at 00:03 ! Beautiful choice of music for the B-Rolls as well!

I never hear anyone complain about Audi R8 being out for so long. It came out in 2006, so it’s been out longer than GTR
But it has had two generations.
To be fair the r8 is lame
Exactly!
@@samuelgarrod8327 and GTR R35 has 3 generations. CBA, DBA, and EBA and if you count the 2024 face lift that’s total of 4.
I’m so glad you addressed the cost of the R35. And you perfectly stated why 90’s Japanese sports cars were so loved: supercar or supercar beating potential for an attainable price or work towards.
europes biggest nissan dealer and gtr dealer said that he joined meetings in nissan hq japan and that the next gtr will be 100% ev
Very very good point at the end.
The GTR (Skyline) cars are now no longer accessible or affordable to the average person.
Well, when new at least.
Its hard to see how Nissan can justify charging so much for the last of the line cars,
since they haven't exactly made huge leaps in either interior finish or technologies,
or even in performance terms over the last few years.
As you say, they now see themselves as Porsche 911 competitors, and can charge accordingly.
Whereas, when it launched in 2007, they could outperform the equivalent 997 Turbo but yet be
still realistically affordable for a reasonable price....no longer unfortunately.
It's really nice to see the production value of the channel evolving throughout the time. The new drone footage looks amazing. Keep up the good work!
Will do thank you!
Dino the B roll/driving footage 10/10 and Huge congrats on that cover i never knew that thats insane and i absolutely love how Japan revise refine and perfect everything their way of thinking is genius also that Millennium Jade R35 your driving beautiful 👌 and that Futuristic R35 looks like something straight out of Cyberpunk its wild 😮 but yes their definitely weapons but i think all the versions of GTR's are for sure ☝ great vid nicely done 👍
Fantastic episode. Love that so much of this was just you driving the car.
I actually think the hyper force is a fantastic design. The only problem is what the people want is a SPORTS car. Not a hyper car.
Bellissimo video Dino.. interessante e appassionante...
Continua così ❤
Grazie 🙏🏻
I never liked the R35 compared to the old GT-Rs. It is too much of a supercar for me. But this last redesign, specially in this T-Spec Millennium Jade is beautiful. Thank you for another amazing video, Dino, so many stunning visuals!
I tend to agree with your comment that Nissan have sort of lost their connection to the GTR's "high performance for the every-man" philosophy with the more recent iterations. I became a Datsun/Nissan convert back in the 80's watching the Group C Turbo Bluebird in the Australian Touring Car Championship and then the R31 Skylines. You could connect with them because although the turbo models weren't sold here in Australia you could buy a Bluebird that looked the same and the N/A RB30 Skylines performed pretty good anyway. I later fell for my automotive true love, the Datsun 510, for the same reason. An every-mans car but on a level above the other stuff that was in the market at the time.
I hope Nissan doesn't lose that base philosophy in the process of trying to compete too hard with Porsches, Ferraris and McLarens.
Nothing made after 90s, maybe early 2000s, really catches my interest anymore. The 70s/80s/90s cars were so much more enjoyable and exciting.
I think it’s good that the GTR has lasted as long as it has. The long term parts availability will be a good thing. I think Nissan dropped the ball hard by not competing with Toyota in the gt86 market back in 2013.. a new Silvia would have been amazing if it did the same path with Toyota gt86/gr86. There are so many S Chassis fans wanting a new version…no idea how they didn’t see it..
Yep they screwed up BIG by not going ahead with the IDX. They let Toyota take the entire market segment. Now they have turned owning an R32/33/34 somethig only the rich can afford to do with limited parts availability and upping prices continuously. In contrast owning an air cooled 911 is far easier
Lovely video and talk.
So, would you order Millennium Jade T-Spec or Bayside Blue Track Edition?
Blue Nismo lol
Good as always 😎
The views are so worth waking up at 6am for
There's no such thing as too many GT-R's, hope they never stop making it. I want the next one to be a Hybrid.
I remember going to the US debut of the GTR here in Los Angeles in 07 or 08
Still such a great car! Killer color as well
Nice video!! ❤❤❤ #SpeedHunter
Thank you
For a vehicle that's been produced for 18 years and to do a 0-60 in 2.8 seconds is insane .
Keep thinking of the new Tesla Model 3 performance as I'm watching this. Similar 0-60, all wheel drive and similar weight though lower center of gravity. Makes me think of the M3 more like a baby GTR in a way, but not as gorgeous looking as the GTR.
like it son 🔥💯💪🏻
nice video #news
I think with the r35 is they made it to be future proofed, probably an ageless design
btw by the way is that your car dino dc🤩. well i got somethin ta say. i wish the next coming era of nissa gt-r would be able to defeat all of them EV productions. able to defeat tesla cybertruck, able to defeat lucid air the unstoppable okay. nissan got this. dont let them americans always be the winner.
Not my car
R35 was ahead of the time then it became behind the times. Still am amazing car. Disclaimer: I own a r35
I feel as though Nissan lost their way with the GTR as well. The idea at the beginning was that it was basically the Japanese version of the Corvette. What I mean by that, is that it offered the performance of a supercar while being considerably cheaper. When they first came out with the R 35 that’s what it provided but when they made it over $100,000 they really lost a lot of that. It still had the performance but at that price why not just get the Porsche.
I agree man 19million yen is outrageous
They lost the plot. Which is silly as all they have to do is look at the sales figures to see something ain’t right
The R35 is probably the perfect package and is the poor man's supercar
At least the 2007 to 2012 models should've been offering manual transmission. To be a "worthy successor to R34". Such a shame many of us will never get to drive one, because what money we can save will go to BMW or Porsche with a manual.
So, I heard about 5-6 years ago about a company negotiating with Nissan over providing lithium for batteries for the R36 GTR, and it would be an EV.
They’ve been working on the R36 for atleast 6 years already, it will be a full EV, I’m willing to put money on it.
Which is very sad I think. It’ll be an overpriced EV barge and I think it will fail, spectacularly.
maybe the next generation of GTR is fully ev
R35 actually lives up to the price and hype :) Would prefer this now over the R32-R34 range!
Uhh the 911 for example?
Ask Tamura what he had Nissan buy as the inspiration… 991 Turbo S
im afraid the r36 will suck no matter what
Let’s give them the benefit of the doubt
@@dino_dc when you described how they lost the plot w/ Porsche turbo description… kinda sums it up
It's not even that hard of a task either, design a new flat 6, give it a design blend of r34/35 and bang instant classic. They do not need to rush it into a hybrid at all.
I genuinely hope that sharp lined cyberpunk looking thing doesn’t replace the R35 GTR. That new concept is so damn ugly
Nissan "lost it" when Mizuno-san left. I believe 2013 was the last Mizuno-san year. After Mizuno-san, the standard R35 became "soft"
I think I even remember seeing an article that he didn't want a hardcore model (what the Nismo ended up as) and left as a result of that. He had a specific philosophy that he wanted to follow, but corporate higher ups (ehem Andy Palmer) wanted their vision that ended up in the 2016 facelift and the 2015 Nismo.
Yeah, they pushed Mizuno out sadly.
@@DylanTK Mizuno-san is the OG Mr. R35
@alipaguia6498 The Nismo ain't a bad car, although my belief is that it went against the R35 ethos is being a "quiver" car... drive it to work, big boot, and more than adequate for a track day. The Nismo performance jump also did not justify the price point. The route I took was a used DBA, and that Mizuno-san car was my blank canvas.
The r35 never felt *athletic* to me. It looks so heavy. Similar to the visual weight that a Cadillac has. It’s not an exceptionally beautiful car. I don’t think anyone believes that it is. Regardless it’s still a fantastic car. This year Nissan has rolled out a lot of stunning designs! I’m really hoping they’ve gotten over this hump of making the ugliest cars on the road since 2003.
That car ugly af! The ideas from back in the 70-80's of what a futuristic car would look like is what we should be getting in 2024! What happened to those creative ideas???
you can hate it all you want, youll never be able to afford one
Q50 rwd and pretend it's a gtr 😅
