    Midnight purple is the one! But, I will take any new GTR!!! If you consider the care, R&D, evolution of the engine and legendary AWD, the consistent improvements, whether small or large that has been put into this car, you will realize that it is a solid choice! What dreams are truly made of! And it still is a looker and very special! Hopefully Nissan doesn't do anything radical in the future, to pander to those complaining about the refresh. The balance is there now.

  • @kingbrutusxxvi
    @kingbrutusxxvi 8 дней назад +3

    I guess I'm going to be the jerk with complaints so here goes... I've been a fan since the late '80s when I saw a 1972 in a parking lot and had to know what it was. All these years later I still love every iteration (I think the R33 is seriously underappreciated) but I've grown a bit frustrated with Nissan. First, since the R35 was released over a decade and a half ago there have been several small changes but they've all been pretty minor. That's a long time but the R35 has managed not to look "old" for a car designed so long ago. My issue is that it has become more and more bland with each cosmetic change. The 2014 looked far better than the 2024. Those early versions looked more aggressive. Their lines were better. Of course looks are subjective and that's only my opinion but that leads me to the other issue I'm having with Nissan. The MSRP on the R35 currently ranges from $125K up to $235K (not counting dealer markups). That is a preposterous price for this car. They can make whatever claims they want but I believe 100% that the prices are why most of us rarely see an R35 on the road. If Nissan dropped the MSRP to the $80K-$135K range they wouldn't be able to build them fast enough. With almost every automaker putting out fresh, exciting versions of their sports and super cars I can't see spending a few hundred grand for a "new" car originally designed more than 20 years ago. Of course no one cares about my opinion but there it is.
