Thanks for watching! - Авто та транспорт
Crazy to think the R35 used to be criticized by some for feeling digital. 15 years on and it’s now quite analog in a world of so many sports cars gone even more digital.
On the opposite end, LFA was seen as too clunky and now it’s praised as an analog car.
Its hard being ahead of your time. You dont get appreciated till every follows you along.
Analog all the way please and thank you.
Pretty much. People put the ZR1 C6 on a pedestal because it was a manual transmission V8. Though it did get around the Nurburgring faster.
@@Userxxx840 the c6 zr1 still holds up too but for the time that the R35 was released, at around $70k original msrp, it put many supercar manufacturers on notice. Also the first car to really start the whole launch control craze that I can recall. Ferrari had it too on the 430 but the brutality of the 4k rpm clutch dump still holds up, at the cost of a few early transmissions.
GTR been around so long its now an analog sports car haha
Say that you can't buy
Who cares? You buy these cars for performance not to show off with your interior, buy a merc for that
@@alexandrubaginean7369 Saying a car feels analog or digital does not just refer to the interior tech/features. Its mostly about how the car feels to drive and experience as a whole. Whether it feels mechanical and raw or removed and dampened etc.
This car is still my dream car 10 years later. Hopefully I'll be able to buy one some day
10? Try 15
@@hudsonriversirens I know how long the car has been out. But I wasn't really aware of modern cars until like 2013
U can find a 2010 to 2015 for less. Than 70k.
Trucks are great to travel with
Buy a house instead
Rented a 2018 for a weekend... and my god. I couldnt stop driving it. Never was a big fan until I drove one. Fell in love. I daily a 600whp STI and I still miss driving that GTR.
How’d you rent it?
And sti had more power then stock gtr and shows how good gtr is they are impressive u jus wanna drive 247wish I could afford one maybe one day
Probably by going to a car rental place that offers GTR 😂@reverbandchill3425
@@reverbandchill3425probably on Turo or something
How many engines and turbos have you gone through on the STI?
Subtopher is awesome. Truly enjoy watching both. Awesome car...
Substitute Topher has his OG Topher Cadence down pat now, really cool to see how he can match Topher Senior’s flow so well
The GTR is such a classic. Love it or hate it, and plenty of people do, it has been an icon in car culture and it's great seeing you do a revisit of it!
I feel it's absolutely a modern classic.
Thank you for the REAL gauges Nissans, its like a breath of fresh air
Yess!!, I have been waiting for another GTR driving POV for so long!!
You are literally outside my work 🤣🤣 man if I only knew
god man such a clean whip dude, hope I could spin this around one time in life !
Reliable car that does literally everything, in any weather (with proper tires), including beating Ferraris and most super cars in races.
The design is really art of work especially with this colour 😍
Best feeling diffs in any AWD platform imo, for on throttle oversteer performance on track, it just hooks.
Still one of my favorite cars. I was 15 when it first came out in 09'. I agree with you subtopher, just an iconic design and car. I had a buddy who owned one that his parents bought for him, what a beast of a car. Just FUN.
Future classic. I’ll never forget going around VIR in one when they first came out, the midrange punch and gravity defying brakes blew me away. It’s far more analog than it gets credit for.
I love substopher content
This has been my dream car since I was a kid, drive one last month and it was smooth and enjoyable
Subscribed! Very pleasant to watch.
Absolutely love this car 😍 still a dream car of mine, even though I'll more than likely never be able to afford it. Always a joy to see one, especially in person 🔥🔥🔥
Why say that about yourself? You can do anything you want in life!
That section of Jog just between Beeline and 45th is the only somewhat twisty road we have here in West Palm 😅
For the love of cars let’s just appreciate some of these legends. Would love to have one in the garage
Some people hate it but I like the mechanical noises from the transmission. Makes it feel like a real race car and uncomputerized.
Great review g
Damn, it's crazy that these are basically unchanged for 15 years. I'm still bummed they are auto only, but the performance is undeniable.
Nissan should be ashamed of itself for not updating this beauty. I'd fire the ceo and the board.
They need to offer a real manual.
The DCT transmission goes with the GTR like peanut butter and jelly.
Car is too much for a manual
@@JDMintegraVTEC I prefer manuals but I agree.
Nissan nailed it with this. Would love to own one someday!
Edit: Though I do think I like the MK5 supra a TAD bit more in terms of looks especially.
What? Nowhere? 😭
True, such a fun car overall.
@@wr1ght939💀
@@ThePumpkinMan2 Exactly. Would love to own one one day, I do see them here a lot and they're beasts on the road.
Exactly
the fact that it doesnt have hood struts is crazy
weight, cost, space
Why is that crazy? Doesn't even matter.
lol weight...it's a GTR. It's already a pig. Struts don't affect that. @@drywater3559
I legit don't understand this argument... Why does that actually matter?
weight reduction
Just had a sneaky quick drive of a 2008 Premium example and can testify the hype is justified, it's very raw and mechanical feeling which you don't get it many modern sports/super cars. I've driven some fast cars including a Tesla Model S and can say the GT-R is up there at the top.
That menacing laugh 8:00 😂
The Nissan GTR is impressive, its great speed and appearance makes it compete with high-end cars, just as the GTR 34 remains a car legend, this successor is another level.♥
This made my day, and make me jealous 😅
Bro
You had me laughing when you said these premium seats there nice and squishy 🤣👍
Crazy these haven't gone down in price much older ones still 60 70k ..I wish we got 6spd gtr wish they made some with manual even for 1 year be sick 6spd r35
I do love driving...which is why I need a manual so I can actually drive lol. I get bored just turning the steering wheel.
Yeah i would still never complain about this car from 09 to now. Whenever anyone even feels like complaining about it i would just suggest driving it and then yeah. Not much left to complain about
A centered digital speedometer would be nice as well. The awkward analog speedometer reminds me of my frs's, but it remidies that with a centered digital speedo.
Beautiful analogue instrument cluster.
Topher is #1!
yo what about substitute topher
@@doit2winhe's fire too
Don’t forget Tedward
Greatest car of all time
Bolddddd shout
Godzilla is alive and kicking! Love this car!
Wow that 2013 gt-r / 2023 is insane
I know people hate it cause it’s still analog. But it’s still an iconic vehicle and super fun to drive. Only thing it could use is a stock turbo update.
17:26 HIts the upshift paddle and it responds to shifting to 4th gear slowly?
I remember when these first came out beating everything double its price tag.
With a proper exhaust....STILL the best sounding car I've ever heard (Other than an LFA). Simply Eargasmic
Freezing cold take lmao. My pops had an 08 GTR with a Stillen full exhaust and it sounded *good*, but putting it in the same ballpark as an LFA... cmon man
2023 vehicle with a CD slot! crazy
Hey, can you do a pov in the nismo gtr next
I will say the paddle shifters have some delay compared to the c8 vettes.
I grew up with the r35
Is that a CD Player in the infotainment system?
Which year would be the best year model to buy? Your thoughts.
Is there some piped in engine noise? It kinda sounds like it has some speaker engine BS going on?
Please review 2007-08' Acura TL Type-S.
Such a shame that the infotainment was completely ignored. Those gauge layouts are fully customizable. It would've been cool to see all that stuff.
LC500 vs GTR which one you like better?
I'd love one
I just noticed this, but are we not gonna talk about the CD player?! Don't get me wrong I love carplay, but the ability to play CDs really is an impressive feature in a new car!
Benefits of an old car :)
My 2019 Ram has a CD player. Think they finally stopped offering it in '21 or something.
I always appreciate when companies go that extra mile to make an engine bay look pleasing. It's easier to just take the modern BMW approach and cover up an eagle's nest of wiring with a goofy plastic cover.
Please do one for range Rover 2023
What is the place you drive your car?
Sometimes I pretend my Elantra N is a GT-R lol. Maybe it’s the performance page and dual clutch that gives off those vibes. Of course I realize it’s a ridiculous thing to think ha ha.
Sub topher do you live in Florida? I had no idea honestly. I'm in florida
under 3 sec to 60, ok nissan haha. u a pro at this toph
I always call my 2009 Sentra a GTR because it has some of the same switchgear inside lol
Yes this car is essentially 17 years old at this point, but it is still one of the quickest accelerating sports cars that money can buy. I know Nissan is infamously known for not updating their vehicles often but the GT-R is one of their vehicles that I think still looks better as is than their other vehicles. Plus 565 HP from that 3.8L twin turbo V6 is plenty of power to this day. And yes $123,000 is crazy expensive for this old car but it’s still much cheaper than some of its competitors.
It’s pretty sad that for sub 120k they can’t include a gas hood lift struts rather that eyesore stick..
When are they going to make it more digital even mustangs have digital dash now
I love nissan and will continue buying them but for so many years why does nissan continue to use the window switches and mirror as my 2008 nissan altima and pathfinder. Like this goes for pretty much all their cars. I guess thats what makes them profit and easy to repair.
Nissan elegance
The gtr is a animal no doubt but it’s definitely time for a makeover
Nissan is too broke for make an R36 unfortunately. They lost too much R&D money due to low sales of their normal cars. That’s why the current Z isn’t so good. It’s because Nissan can’t afford good R&D. They just have to make their normal cars better and more reliable, and maybe we can see an R36 soon.
“substitute Tofer” ? god
if i had the money its still hard to choose this over an M5, same price
Good ol' Nissan "Premium" and have to prop up the hood 😂. Couldn't have thrown in at least one hydraulic hood hinge? Still take a GT-R ALL DAY
I WANT ONE.
Price point i think the z06 is the choice
Show us pictures of different cars
He's got that barcode license plate. Nice
It will be a sad day when the r35 is discontinued
Didn't they stop the production?
If only they would update the instrument cluster.
Car is stunning from the outside, but I must say that the interior feels dated for 2023. I also wish that the engine cover color (red in the video) would match the car color.
how can i do what you do
Go opposite way of the sheriff 😅
A great car but its reallt hard to justify the price. Especially with cars like the Corvette E-Ray, Shelby GT500 (much cheaper), and the 911
i miss the Floridian roads, Now im stuck with crappy Texan roads
I went to school in Daytona Beach, FL. I have to deal with crappy Richmond, VA roads, and very crappy drivers
If you think the roads in this video are good, then I definitely feel sorry for you. Florida is a nasty state as well.
@@6lemans10 Lived in Daytona from 09-18 and the traffic has become insane since then, especially around LPGA Blvd.
im buying onr
Every other vehicle has a hand assembled engine too.... robots don't put pistons in or attach the cylinder head to the block..
Hi friend 😊very nice video❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
put into perspective, this thing is even older than the current gen 5 4runner.....
$120k with no BSM is craaazzzyyy
123k for that interior is ludicrous to me
Typical Nissan
But what about the car?
The head lights. I can’t get past the head lights.
Is it just me, or is there a bit of a knocking sound when the car is idling?
Its the exhaust
$116k for a GTR seems high. You could get a optioned out G80 M3/M4 comp. for less and it will be a more refined and just as fast if not faster.
I live in Moldova, and i understand that i will never film a car POV of such a car because of our roads 🥺
What's your gear setup?
TAKUMIの発音日本人並み😳⚡️
100k for such an old interior is wild
It’s pissing me off how early he’s shifting into 3rd then let’s off… then bitches about the car not having blind spot detection … my guy it’s not meant for daily driving . It’s built for racing
This car’s price is almost comparable with 911 turbo S. But turbo S will eat this Godzilla for breakfast. Even regular M3/M4 comp will smoke it. And I’m not talking about the outdated technologies. When this gen came out back in 2009 it was quite a breakthrough and obviously one of the quickest car on the planet, but it was 15 years ago! I’m just not getting why someone could consider this car over German competitors especially for this price tag.
gtr! :)
