R-PWR Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Hey All, Just bought a beautiful white 09 R35 GTR, all I can say is its amazing. I have driven a lot of exotic cars, along with highly modified R26 GTR's and all I can say is the R35 GTR as an out of the box package is in its own league. There is no Review or Video that can some up how this car feels to drive, it does everything so well and I haven't even had the chance to take it to the track yet If your considering an M3 or equivalent don't make the mistake go for the R35 GT-R as quite frankly there's no car this side of $350,000 that I would rather drive. Look forward to meeting many of you in the community and getting to a few events!

g35me Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Until you own one it is hard to describe to someone else how good it really is. Well done on your purchase.

Beer Baron Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 lol. you are right but it's funny reading it now. I've known that feeling since 2008 when I got mine!! seems like a lifetime ago now but I do still remember the first time I rode in one, the first time I raced one (was in japan in 2007, release day, in a mates 800hp R34 GTR and we were level pegged by a near stock R35!), the first time I saw one on a race track in person (was Tsukuba 2007, same day as we raced one on the freeway), and of course the first time I drove one. by then I already knew they only had about 290kw at the wheels and the very first thought I had blasting up a winding hill was that to keep up with this car in a R32/33/34 GTR I'd need at least 400kw in a stripped out lightweight GTR and a dogobox at least or even a hollinger. and even then the R35 would pull a length or two at least on every corner exit. and you know what? buy a 32/33/34 GTR, build it to a reliable 400kw add a hollinger, some decent brakes and suspension to make it handle and you've spent almost as much as just buying an R35 GTR... they are a very impressive car. not because of how much power they have but because of how little power they have and how fast they are still.

R-PWR Posted July 13, 2011 Author Share Posted July 13, 2011 ^ exactly the gear box is amazing and the confidence it gives the driver with its balance and grip is phenomenal. Also keep mind it does all this being under warranty and fully street legal Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/370765-absolutely-amazing/#findComment-5911924 Share on other sites More sharing options...
