What is the 2nd car in post #5???

TVR Sagaris. LOL, half the reason I have been trying to get a job in Europe the past 18 months as it is my dream car and one day will bring one to Aus as a personal import

Firstly, hehe...

Sorry Andrew for going slighlty off on a tangent...

...but my Victorian friend above and I have great dialogue before.

Welldone man! Hope all goes well.

Yeah, I won't go off topic in this thread.

And back on topic... that was an interesting video. I've been a passenger in a R35 and it's an awe inspiring car. Undoubtedly better in every way when compared to any of the earlier GTRs. But, I think I would appreciate it more if it had a traditional manual gearbox. Sure the DCT transmission is much faster, but shifting gears manually is a lot more fun. And I this is the point with these sorts of cars; we buy them because we want something fun to drive. And as much as I was in awe of the R35 when I was in it, I didn't think it was as much fun as an R34 that I had the pleasure of driving.

There is two ways to look at it.

If all you look at is the facts, the R35 wins. Performance statistics, warranty, new, reliability etc etc etc

But if you look at emotion, then its a different story.

Personally, I think nothing beats driving JEt200 at the track. 350rwkW, 1100kg, rear wheel drive and NO driver aids at all. Raw driving pleasure.

but some poeple prefer dual clutch and electronics and only care if they beat someone else.

I've been searching for an R34 GTR.

Although I love the R34, I am starting to think that value for money, and what your getting (wear and tear wise) for the price you pay - the R35 may be the better option.
