Is The Nissan GTR 50th Anniversary Edition Still Legendary?

- Опубликовано: 5 дек 2019
- 2020 Nissan GTR 50th Anniversary Edition Review by The Straight Pipes. The 50th Anniversary Nissan GTR brings no new performance improvements, but it's definitely not slow with 565hp and 467lb-ft torque from a 3.8L Twin Turbo V6 VR38DETT. The R35 GTR has been around since 2008, so it's technically 11 years later (12 years later since it's a 2020 model... but who's counting?). But at $139,998 - would you take it over the Audi R8, Porsche 911, Acura NSX, BMW i8?

So is the GTR still a legend or is it desperate for an update? Make sure you watch our R34 GTR vs R35 GTR comparison: ruclips.net/video/wev_gievHmo/видео.html
It definitely looks cool. Although I'm not a Japanese car guy, I'd still be stoked to see one on the road, which I did a few months ago.
Metro Music I agree. I used to look at its sport luxury brand infiniti as well, but it has been left behind by Acura and Lexus. I have been waiting so long for the much promised infiniti version of the gtr. Acura now has the nsx and Lexus will soon have the LCF. I wouldn’t be surprised if infiniti will scrap plans of ever producing one.
Used to love it but kinda reminds me of an Altima now
I’d say it’s both. I’ve never been taken by the styling (but really liked the R32 - R34s), but it somehow looks better now than 10yrs ago... I think the Bayside Blue is a winner and maybe helps here. There’s been a few GTRs turn up at autocrosses over the last 10 years, and I still remember how amazing it was on my first ride-along; I’ve driven, and rode with, very fast cars and drivers, and I was amazed at how fast it was. “How can such a big car defy physics so thoroughly” was my thinking. It’s still a hell of a lot of car, although if I had the money, I likely spend it on a Cayman GTS and put the savings to the tire budget - just more of that tossable sports car agility, less GT car.
The 370Z on the other hand seems a bargain. I don’t care about the ancient tech, and it’s a lot of sports car for 30 grand. Get the base model, get a Torsen or Quaiffe for it, and enjoy the hell out of it.
waiting for both you on new lotus evora gt.
For me, this thing will never get old
I hope this year is the “send off” of this generation gtr. It’s a great car but it’s time for the r36
This gen will go down as a legend
iluvcakes19 you’re right. No disrespect to the r35 it’s just been around long enough. I’m ready for the next gen and I’m sure all the r35 owners are ready for them to start going up in value once they stop making them
ConLee the question is, is Nissan ready to build r36? Or are they going to take like a decade like they did with r35. They as a company are having a hard time keeping up with Honda and Toyota in sales and profit. So I really hope they are able to innovate and build the r36. I was a teenager when this car first came out. So needless to say, I have been a fanboy for all these years. It’s so sad to see all its rivals are so much faster than the Godzilla now.
ConLee imagine if they unveiled the Z35 and the R36 at the same time?
@@dufferego87 it's been a decade since its release bud
Godzilla 😳I loved it when it came out, and I still love it.
I loved it when it first came out (as it beat supercars for a cheap price) but they didn't change much and its performance stayed similar, whilst the competition from not only supercars but sports too caught up and beat it
@@Harry._.Thompson really?
Harry Thompson which one is beating it? Specially on the track? In a straight and at what price? Yeah .... stop talking none sense
Not taking account the tune ones at over 1500hp
And I’m not a huge skyline fan but let’s be real here, this thing does 0-60 in 2.7 and it’s made more for the track
@@danieloceans9652 Tesla Model S P70D/80D/90D/100D, Tesla Model 3 Performance Editition, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Porsche 911 GT3 (not the RS), McLaren 570s, Audi R8, Corvette C8, and an Acura NSX are all quicker in a straight line, and excluding the two Teslas, all of them are faster on the track.
Bij Dikh right, outside of the Tesla. All the cars you name are way more expensive that’s the point and hate to break it to you the GT3 (both of them) and the turbo S are not faster. The NSX is as fast in a straight .... yeah
50th Anniversary GTR is the same as the 40th Anniversary lol
A true POS
@@4gegtyreeyuyeddffvyt
yeah it's not the best car
After tons of studies of this car
Never saw a 40th anniversary thing
There was tons of changes over the year. So no it’s not the same car as it was 10 years ago. Do you research before commenying
@@G0ddEityawesome
no there hasn't only changes are small mods to make idiots by the same old crap since 2007 but you being the typical GTR fanboy
I’m so grateful for Yuri saying Canadian after every price. From a US-centric perspective, it helps.
US-centric? Isn't everyone's perspective centric to where they live and what they have experienced?
Honestly love what this channel does. I want them to review more fun cars like the s2000 rather than just fast cars.
What? They review all kinda cars, what you talking about?
Lol, they just reviewed the Hyundai Venue.
They review even the slowest car :)
It's still a legend!
Haha, no...
Ehhhh not really...
The very first KPCG10 is a legend. The R35? Hmmm... not really, just a 911 rival.
Farhan Ahmad Tajuddin welcome to 2019 old man
The stripes ruins it
Hey Yuri & Jacob! Keep up the bond and the great job! I like your nice, professional and striaghtforward vids! No BS, No pompous phrases,....Straight to the point!
Dude your content is so good keep doing what ur doing
suspension also tuned by lotus, the more you know.
thx james pumphrey
Ur a man of the culture I like that
mo powa baby??? Hope he’s good he didn’t yell like before the heart attack in the newest vid
MOW POWA BABY
Ugh I forgot my name he had the heart attack 5 hours after he shot the lotus vid
Michael Rossi ohhhh really that makes so much sense oh my he wasn’t feeling good yet still did it
Awesome review. Love the GTR. A drive in a track-spec GTR on a race track last year ruined how I feel about every car slower than 2.9's, lol. Keep up the great work - so impressed by your production value and attention to detail.
“Knee-sand” ! 😆
Hey guys, thank you for always showing the price conversion to US dollars! It’s the icing on the cake with your great videos! Cheers from NY
the first time I saw the GTR in 2008 compared to me seeing a GTR now hasn’t changed. I still love it
The GT-R is still a superb high-performance machine after 11 years and can be enjoyed in less than perfect weather conditions without scaring you. The information from the Multi Function Meter can also be recorded onto a memory stick.
was my dream car 15 years ago, still is my dream car now. Getting closer and closer to getting myself one
I've been waiting for The GT-R Review. Thanks a lot!
That full name badge on the back is 😂
It's just a decal, you can remove it.
I could watch these launch reactions all day
Best car review channel on RUclips. Doug Demuro ain't got nothing on you guys. Keep up the great work!
Bruh... Those wheels are insane! 🔥
One of my favorite cars still. It never changes and it's still awesome.
Whoever buys this gotta remove that 50th anniversary sticker at the back.
Yeah, that's an appalling sticker.
tykszeto was thinking the same thing. I’d take off all the decals including roof and hood as well
I was so close to leasing one and I already new first thing to go was decals lol
George Villa What happened?
50th anniversary badging looks tacky
Thts not a 50th anniversary one they very miss informed the 50th anniversary one is the gtr50
Norma Head dumbass this is the 50th anniversary they got two versions of it one is from the italdesign thing and this one is the bayside blue that represents the r34 skyline gtr
@@normahead8668 bruh, it's literally written at the back that it's the 50th anniversary edition
@@mursie100 tht a sticker does a old school graphic r34 rims and a sticker and interior leather tht says 50th anniversary on a basic 2020 model really make it a anniversary model more like a fucking reboot model.
@@nosferatu7611 Bayside blue u can get on any gtr only thing tht it has tht is diffrent is r34 rims . Does a graphic sticker and interior stitching tht says 50th anniversary on a basic 2020 model make it one. More like a reboot then anything
I saw one tonight in a parking lot I freaked out and jumped out and the man the owned it was an absolute legend and walked back to his car and Revved it for me I was a complete fan boy but I can’t help it🤣GTR ONE DAY💫❤️❗️❗️
The GTR is still a beast
One of the best cars ever made
Rather have skylines back...
Space Emperor Karl nigga wut
Ok fanboy
Right cause all y'alls broke ass selves gonna afford a $100K+ car???? At least the skylines were somewhat affordable by comparison. Now it's impossible
Space Emperor Karl so you’re saying you are broke ass? What
The transmission issues are limited to the 2009 models only. They've been resolved in newer GTRs. GTRs are bombproof.
When the GT-R50 comes out you need to bribe someone to drive thiers.
Its gonna take a lot to bribe someone who can afford one of those.
Yes the real 50th anniversary idk why they think this the 50th anniversary one
Norma Head this is the 50th anniversary bruh they got 2 versions of gtr for the celebration one is from italdesign and the other one is this bayside blue that represents the r34 skyline
@@nosferatu7611 thts the thing is it though does old school graphic and r34 rims and a sticker and interior stitching tht says 50th anniversary on a basic 2020 model really make it a anniversary edition. Tht some reboot shit!
Norma Head but the white stickers at the top and rear is just
Bad
You guys are the best!
I really like how analog it is, no touch screen BS. I just watched Doug's review of the M8 Competition and price being no object, I would take this car. I love the simplicity and there is a rawness that that comes about because of no extreme technology. Plus buying this car and having the budget to buy the M8, I could buy a MX5 for the Mrs. :) Also, like your intro music.
This car was so complex and driving felt digital when it came out. It’s crazy that now it’s considered simple and raw
I have 2 of theses,, for the money no other super car can get near it,, I've had Porsche, Ferrari, Aston Martin,, etc etc,,, all over £100000 to buy,, its the driveability of the GTR which is incredible,,, every day use.. Fantastic machines.
That monster laugh of Jacob while launching;)
GTR car and your review - awesome.
The price on this car spiked like crazy ever since it’s been out🙄..
The only Nissan these guys love reviewing 💀😂
They are race cars. Worked at a Nissan dealership and all of these went to California, Alaska, Arizona race tracks. $10k to do a brake job. Tune ups for $8k plus every 10k miles.
that can't be true... 10k for a brake job?
Godzilla is in a class by itself and I wouldn't bother to test any car against it. It shows that simplicity is the best over all the tech and glitter other cars come with. Focus on what really makes people want a fast car and just give it to them. The build of the engine alone shows heart, dedication and true craftsmanship that many have forgotten. Keep in mind the best and most expensive watch is still hand made and that spans decades with the Swiss company.
Fine video boys
Can you guys do more Lexus reviews? Specifically the IS lineup? You have the best reviews on RUclips and I'm looking to get one soon. Your input is one of the only ones I trust on here.
I saw so many shared interior parts with my 2015 Infiniti q50, the steering column stalks, the center console joystick button thing, etc.
The Launch got squirrelly breaking traction! YEWW! 😲
I love how you compare it to other cars but say it’s old! This in today’s standard still smashes most super cars even today!
These guys do a great job. 🇨🇦
Takes off like a RC car? I love RC cars! Please incorporate an RC car drag race between you too in one these episodes!
THIS IS MY DREAM CAR!!! i hope to own a NISMO GTR one day!!
U will
Go for it!
Tiffany Chen thanks Tiffany!!
Edelhif I will! I already have a blacked out 350Z rn!!
@@theinstagrant did you master it? Is it already too slow and easy for you?
You guys have probably the greatest job ever
Ya it’s really fun
That tail lights never get old.
Yeahhh notification squad 😍😍
Rims and gauges are awesome! The rest is a little bit old but works.
It's all nice and dandy, but dang I love the original Godzilla
This thing will never die
Nice to see a little interior update, the gtr really needed that, that old nissan analog 90s interior was just so lame for a such a great car
Yooooo that whee color is beautiful
If it's not broke, do not fix it 🤙
Daaaaamn, there needs to be a StraightPipes intro music playlist, I would listen to it all day!!
FACTSSSS
I thought y’all had already reviewed it... or maybe I’ve been watching a lot of car videos 😘
You guys make the Fast and Furious face when they hit NOS. LOL
I don't care how "old" or "slow" (relatively speaking) or "unrefined" the GTR is, I will never stop wanting one.
I had a 2009 GTR, one of the first into the USA. The attesa AWD was the most unique and spectacular part of the drive train. I've had a lot of fast cars and it was unbelievable how it handled.
Yes... It's Always been the "BEST.. Bad Driver's Car". FYI, you might want to fix the.. " I've has alot", To maybe "I 've had alot"? If you do, I'll edit mine and only point out that this car is for guys that "can't drive".
@@JerseyMikeP haters gonna hate
Like they said Godzilla always remains to be Godzila ❤❤ Crazy video boys as always❤
A great tribute to the Zilla .. still a legend .
Great review of this legend. I have a 2017 GT-R. Why no box test? ;) This supercar would kill the box test!
The GTR is so awesome in so many ways. It doesn't have the character of the older ones, however it is wicked fast and looks pretty cool. A lot of engineering went into these cars. One of the best Nissan cars ever made. Still hooks hard......
Transmissions seem to be the Achilles heel of Nissan. Dual clutch 6, CVT, 4,5, & 7 speeds all had reliability issues. I’m assuming the Manuals were solid, but if they could solve their Jatco transmission problem; they’d be solid.
The Renault partnership didn't help
@@V1ralB1ack though it kept the Z alive...
@@Edelhif It helped them both by expanding and sharing money but Renault and cheap shit cars like that encourage small engines and cvt's which caused Nissan to be fucked... This is because Europe has much much much heavier car restrictions than America with some places taxing by cylinder and not having accessible freeways. Because they're fucking stupid and then they wonder why their economy is weaker than ours.
The dream that one day will come true
Buying one soon my first gtr dreams does come true I guess
Hope you have a review of the 2020 Audi RS6 Avant coming up soon ??!!
Whoa.. Starbucks for cup test. You guys moving up in the world LOL
I see some timmys in the cup holder 😂😂😂
I know you guys already did a video on this, but you should do a BZ/86 video with a Pedal Commander installed. It completely fixes the power problem and it’s super cheap
That launch at the start was so fast I had to finish pouring my beverage, then restart video
What beverage
Torque plays a big factor in that feeling of speed all the time. It only how much torque it produces but at what rpm range, they probably tuned the car to give out most of the torque at low to mid range rpms.
So oldschool, so classy, so damn brutal
I like how big and boxy it looks and yet still performs so well. The view at 8:18 just looks so cool to me.
I'm kinda annoyed by people that always yell "It's so old!" SO! It's also SO GOOOOOODDD!!!! Nissan has constantly updated and tweaked this car over the years, and I think that should be respected. The fact that this old car can still keep up with more modern Porsches speaks volumes. It was ahead of its time when it debuted. I can't wait for the new one, but if I had the money this would take my money! And I really like the small styling tweaks they've made over the years. It still looks fresh to my eyes and the hugely updated the interior as well.
Oh please, I've seen a stock Audi B7 RS6 Avant demolished a stock newer GT-R in a drag race.
This is going to be my daily driver in 2020. 😁
Well what happened
@@fahmi1347 bought IS 350 F
@@harryvirdi4095 how do u like it?
@@fahmi1347
It is really nice ride. I highly recommend it. I live is mid west so winters are brutal here but with AWD tech is awesome with decent tires . My love for sedans is stronger than SUVs.
@@harryvirdi4095 Alright sick! I live in the Midwest as well so that AWD sounds helpful. I am definitely going to check it out.
so, I didn't watch the Hyundai Venue review..
but I watched this one twice!
does that put me back in your good graces?
😃
it's crazy how cool this old ass design still is.
You missed 2 upcoming review teases in the Venue. Never miss a video. You're still cool tho
When was this filmed?
GTR is my lottery car of choice , think my wife's sick of hearing me say every week on lotto day "let's see if I can pop out and lay a wod of cash down for a brand new GTR!" 😁👌
1:30 Yuri looks unwell ahaha
Hands down the 2020 BMW M8 Competition you gotta Jake and Yuri you gotta
Beautiful GTR. Hope to see the R36 soon.
will always want one, would change the stereo for a andriod one
Business Insider reviewer said that the Alcantara on the doors of the Nismo was a con...Like it was cheap carpet... Thank god for guys like you who know what they're talking about.
My dream car 😍😍😍
One big problem for Nissan. They made R35 so great that even themselves may have no idea how to do it again with R36.
I heard rumours that the R36 would be hybrid. Not sure if that would be true.
It has Mach 1 strip on the hood. so cool :)
REALLY REALLY SUPERB BRO
Straightpipes and throttle house collab?
10 years later and 50th Anniversary, no changes.
El Mago Well, it does have…mow powa baby
When did the Gtr transition to start/stop button?
Desperate move ! Nice review
my dream car
A machanical masterpiece
its way over its best time. its hugely more expensive now, while only offering marginally better performance. tech is missing completely, fuel consumption is insane etc. - used one? yeah. new one? hell nah.
Bring back the skyline badge along with the affordable performance!
If you're buying a $130,000 super car, you're probably not worried about fuel consumption
It's still 'current' actually and it still outperforms everything for its price. Go and drive one :)
기현 Arikadou that’s a funny way of saying “considering 10 years of inflation too” /s
Correct, for the near 200k price, there are too many other good choices. Used? And drive it as a GT? Sure
I'm glad Fulton Reed from The Mighty Ducks is doing something he loves after making great movies!!
How do you search for the car problems like the transmission failling
I love the R35 Godzilla VROOM VROOM she roars like a Godzilla when starting up
She's showing her age a little bit, but Godzilla is still such a monster... I love the GTR.
