Great comment on what's important in life. If you step back and think about it, even if it's 5% driven and 95% parked... a lot of that 95% of that is spent asleep. So go for it. Superb review, I appreciate how frank you are about what you like and what you don't. Exactly what I was looking for. It's like the car is your SO!

Love the videos mate keep them up! I watched everyone one of your R8 videos before buying my manual v8 last year (also white like yours 👌) and am currently looking to swap to a GTR so yours vids have been very helpful! Wondered why the gtr feels so wide when on paper it’s a good 10+cm narrower than the r8? Love to hear your thoughts!

When I’m cruising at slow speeds I often drive it semi auto & flick the paddle, it’s just 2nd nature like driving a manual. Has yours got the latest gearbox map? I do agree what you say about the size! They feel so big down the little lanes of Surrey where I live. Love your videos fella, look forward to more soon. My GTR is a CBA Litchfield Stage 3 also. Cheers

A v8 R8 and a GTR are my dream cars and you've had both of them! So cool! A GTR is a little above my price point, so I'm looking to get myself a Nismo RS Juke to satisfy my GTR cravings lol. I think that would be a good car for you to make a buyers guide on. The juke is a nippy little ride with the 1.6t.

Good review, I feel exactly the same about my GT-R, the automatic mode of the transmission just sucks and I drive it all the time in manual mode. Stepping on the gas a bit while downshifting helps it so much and it feels less clunky. Don't be afraid to maintain it guys, it is literally the best car I've ever owned. Get one while you can. You can't do much wrong - beside of killing the gearbox :)

Well done thats a great review. Honestly the points made in this video are exactly how I feel about my car 🤣 i find that sometimes having the gearbox in R mode makes it a bit less lazy but still its keen to try get up the gears quickly. Also when you have it in manual mode, the gear levers attached to the steering collum instead of the steering wheel is frustrating but at least they rectified it in the EBA models

You should try and get a shot of a earlier gtr I was wanting to buy a r35 gtr to replace my R32 gtr but after driving a friend's car I did not want to my friend wanted to buy a r32 after driving my car I didn't like not having a manual gearbox the sense of speed on the r35 gtr also put me off 100mph felt like it was doing 60 The r35 handled a lot better than my r32 gtr but the steering feel and connection to the car was no where near as good straight line performance It didn't feel any faster I think my R32 pulled harder at high rpms My R32 gtr is running 420whp 512fly it has tomei cams -5 turbos it's mapped on 95 Ron running just under 1.2 bar

Well I had a R33 GT-R and my friend a R32 GT-R. We both sold our cars and bought DBA's. His was a track edition. After a while he sold his 35 and i kept mine. He went back to buy his old 32 again. Same car. After the test drive after many years he was disappointed. He is searching for a new r35 again. I remember when i had my 33, I went and rented a 600hp r35. It blew my mind back then and i decided to sell my R33 and get one. Never going to sell this car. Might be my age (almost 40) but to me this is a much better car as a whole. Nissan nailed it back in 2008-9
