    13 years later, and ive come back to say... i finally bought my attainable dream car. The GTR. it was from this moment when i watched Jeremy review it that i knew i had to have it one day. i was 17 when top gear did the gtr episode. the car completely lives up to the hype even today.

      I'd argue instead that the R35 raised the bar on what a sportscar should be. Because of the R35, the Camaro, Corvette, and Boxster are what they are today. Sports car pricing with supercar performance. Despite this, I still feel that the 911 has always been the yardstick, and remains to this day. Absolutely, the R35 did give Porsche a run for their money, not just with competitive pricing, but outright outrunning the 911 in a few certain years. To my memory, this was exactly from 2007-2013. Unfortunately, the R35 has since diminished against growing expectations, and coupled with rising MSRP, the 911 has the crown back. I also disagree with it guarding the door towards being a hypercar. I'd argue that door is definitively held by the 911 GT2 RS today. The Aventador SVJ, 488 Pista, and McLaren 765LT also get to claim dominion over that door. Given the same (competent) driver and the same (balanced) track - say, Suzuka, an R35, even in Nismo configuration, will not outpace the 4 cars listed above. Let's turn the clock 10 years back. The hypercars of that time would have been the Veyron, Agera, Huayra, and Veneno. In between the R35 and the listed cars, there definitely are a few stopgap cars. Aventador, 911 GT3, and 12C all come to mind.

I didn't know about the shitty fuel economy though. I thought it got the same fuel economy as the corolla cos that's also a v6 so that's kinda a bummer.

    when it came out, it was the fastest, safest, most practical car in its class and a few classes above. You are less likely to crash driving a GTR than you are pretty much any European(or American) sports car in its class.
    It took everyone else a while to catch up though. Now?? the GTR is no longer the fastest, but its still a definite contender that does not bow out and keeps the other cars above its class on their rims.

    I’ve driven an R35 and to this day it remains the most powerful and amazing car I’ve ever had the pleasure of driving. When you turn all the toggles to R mode it really becomes Godzilla. What struck me most about the car is that when you drive it in automatic mode, it drives as easy as a Maxima, and when you try to accelerate, the car won’t “let” you. It’s very restricted when in full auto mode. But when you go to manual mode, all bets are off. The thing accelerates like the damn devil. I remember it felt like riding the roller coaster called Greased Lightning, where it takes off like a bullet and you get that feeling in the pit of your stomach, the GT-R gives you the same feeling when you accelerate fast. It’s truly astonishing. I love this car. I wish I had gotten a second crack at it, but one was enough. Glad I still have the pictures and video from the experience 🤘🏻

    There is something about the older r35 that I love way more than the newer ones. It’s smooth and subtle yet sharp and slick. The design of the bumper with its pseudo-canards and the main screen gauges being designed by polyphony. The car is subtle enough to pass as a simple sports car to the untrained eye but to one who knows, they will recognize it immediately.

    480 HP back then was quite a lot of performance for the amount of money Nissan asked for, which was I believe around $70,000 USD back then. This was a huge performance bargain compared to a Porsche 911.

    I owed one and an Evo X. Took them both to a track day and Evo's brakes faded after two fast laps.The GTR just kept getting faster with no issues. 👍👍

    A full on Japanese muscle car with four wheel drive and it's powerful 3.8L twin turbo V6 engine!! The Nissan GT-R is an amazing and beautiful looking car

      Tesla Model S P90D? 5 seats with just over 760 horsepower, 2.8 sec 0 - 100kmh and 10k less then the GT-R

      kenanlambo not even in the same league in terms of cornering and handling.

    • @kenanlambo
      @kenanlambo 7 лет назад

      Bert R Have you driven one? I have driven an P85D for a week, cornering is magnificent. For example I could take long oval highway exits with 160kmh with ease

      kenanlambo Those are some fearsome numbers. I'll check it out. Just to look. Unfortunately not a realistic buying proposition for me currently.
