R35 Premium - Read Inserts

[Turbo Piston]

Hey Guys,

Just wondering how yo guys feel about the Red in the premium version? Personally I don't like it and opting towards the Base model, except im left without the bose stereo system and the dark wheels.

Unless I buy the base model and change the wheels anyway, im sure I can work around with the stereo. I just wish the Premium came with the option of just black interior, what do you guys think?

yeah sadly in aus we are a bit limited for choice. the japanese cars had 3 options levels. base, premium, and black edition. the premiums in japan had the upgraded alarm, upgraded bose stereo, dark wheels, bridgestone tyres but still had the same seats as the base model. and the black edition was a premium but with the red insert seats.

maybe buy the premium and hope down the track someone with a base model will want to swap seats with you...

Just get the premium and get the Red retrimmed. Couldn't be more than $1k.

The stereo isn't that great in either and you could paint the wheels cheaper than a retrim+premium cost.

You can't be serious! Cut out the red and patch in the black inserts? What about all the stiching holes which will never match up again?

These seats will get ruined for sure.

Just take a look at the photo of the 4 GT-Rs lined up in the "R35 Development Project, A snapshot of a customer build" thread. One of the cars has the black wheels (premium) and three have the "charcoal" wheels. Can you really see that much of a difference? And if you spent $4000 on upgrading the standard stereo I'm sure you'd end up with a hellava better stereo than the so-so Bose system. (Plus you get the stickier Dunlops)
