Gtr has Supercar performance but I wouldnt call it a supercar like a 458 / aventador / LFA to me supercar is exclusive and a gtr isnt exclusive at all.

Ric gallardo under 200k is even rare! One day.. One day

But where do you draw the line / price bracket to define it this way? That sounds more like the definition of an exotic than a supercar.

Agree with Jamie & Hamish. I think the stigma of Nissan being a family car producer gets in the way of people thinking the R35 is a supercar. If it was the only car that Nissan produced, people would certainly think of them as a supercar manufacturer. Being that there's only one R35, it's 180k and it's bloody fast, I consider it a supercar.

Though going by the supercars.net definition, every car is a supercar lol.

'the local lambo dealer' is only local if you live in south yarra, which I don't, therefore its not local.

also most people that own 35's are wankers anyway. nyaanyaa.gif haha.

There are maybe 4-5 on carsales, including one out my way in charcoal and manual, delicious. Need my rap career to take off lol

Drats I don't have a local Nissan dealership, because I don't have a Nissan Dealership in my suburb...

Definition of supercar would have to take into account scarcity I'm mean M/amg's aren't supercars I think being mass produced is the barrier for me I mean I see gtrs at least once a week comapre to an r8 lambo ferrari would be what couple times a year?

The interior of a gtr is way below the standard of a supercar unless its changed since the 2011 model I went in an amg c63 interior munched it... Supercar unfortunately is more then just the performance it's the whole image / package for me

Hence why I said "it has Supercar performance"

Cause it's supercars.net Haha!

:laugh:

Does that mean it's exclusive for you if you go to an area with a Nissan dealer?

R35 = supercar

:rofl:

But in saying that, the R35 GTR is still seen as a Sports Car, but has the performance of a Supercar.

You been in a 911 turbo? Terrible interiors! Or GT2/GT3 = no interior lol. I think it's more this perception that it has to be from Italy or Germany to be classified a supercar, because that's where the exotics and supercar manufacturers come from. Rolls Royce Ghost @ 600k-800k are super exclusive, but I wouldn't call these supercars.

I believe it is still seen as a Sports Car, yet Nissan has shown the capabilities of their design / engineering in this car to uphold Supercar performance.

In average, it's about a 3rd of the price of a 911 GT2 / GT3 and probably around the 4th of a price of a Lamborghini.

exactly.

south yarra might be the closest lambo dealer around but it sure as hell aint local to me in rowville laugh.gif

What I was getting at is that because there is no Nissan dealership in my suburb, going by your argument then its a Supercar :P

but I didn't say there was, you called south yarra the local lambo dealer.

the CLOSEST nissan dealer to me would be ferntree gully.

Yeah, South Yarra is closer to me :P

so according to this conversation lambo dealerships are more common than nissan dealerships?

Nah, LOL!

Ryan's just trying to say how much more exclusive a Lamborghini dealer is...

Yet the R35 GTR is only available at 2 "local" Nissan dealers :laugh:

    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
    • Modern oils are amazing. Add tyres to that as well.
    • Probably a smart choice to buy one vs build, purely for the motivation part as you said! Imagine the metal dust everywhere from grinding all the steel to build one. Ha ha ha!   Also, post a photo of your garage.   Mine is below, this is where I've been cleaning and have already half filled a caged 6*4 trailer. And this is after my cleaning expedition mentioned previously... The middle normally has a car in it, but I'm dumping things in the middle as I sort through them. And poor skyline was dusty and has had the lightest few drops of rain and now it looks atrocious and needs to be dragged back out and washed thoroughly! And yes to the right is technically another bay, you really can only see 2 bays out of 3 in this picture.
