Where are all the 370GT Coupes Hiding?

[Vee37]

Recently i got a 2008 Skyline 370GT Coupe, and in the first week I think I saw 1 other on the road (NSW around Sydney and driven out south west). However, since then, in the past few months, I haven't noticed any others on the road. Where are they all hiding? Or are they really that rare? When I have been to the mechanics, I think they had not worked on one previously  either. I was previously thinking of getting an Audi S5 around the same age (2008), and that car I have seen on the road. although, its pretty hard to distinguish year models around that same time. and while driving it may be easy to confuse a newer recent model with an older model S5. When I was getting it registered, there was an S5 in the parking lot at the time.

Is there somehow of getting a count of the numbers of currently registered 370GT Coupes? I have searched the NSW Registry web site, and I cant find anything at that level of detail, beyond checking explicit cars by License plate (ie 3rd Party insurance)

They're starting to succumb to random unfixable electrical gremlins.

In the US V35s and V36s are mostly disappearing because they've been crashed and modified to death like any other cheap RWD car. Such is life.

I see a lot more V35 Coupes than V36, not sure why either.  it isn't like they were more common a few years ago, they have always been a bit rare compared to V35s.

[Vee37]

I have seen V35's a lot more, but less of recent. And I think there used to be two often parked on the side of the road, on my standard route I take to the shops. Although, I haven't noticed them as often as I used to, but with lock-downs etc i haven't been driving out shopping on a whim.

I would be really interested to know how many are registered? I have found the Bureau of statistics for general age of cars, but not by make & model. Other than maybe calling service NSW, the only other indicators I can think of is if NRMA &/OR GIO etc keep and are willing to share the stat. Or an even rougher hint would be the number of cars for sale.

wish i still had my V35.

I still get to see it around town.

I can count on one hand the number of V36's I seen in WA. That's including mine I had.

I own a 2008 370gt and live in West Sydney also do not see many others at all! kinda like it in all honesty until i need parts!

I've seen a few in Victoria. Had to fly to NSW to buy mine. Havent seen any since moving back to Perth. 

I think most people just get a 370z instead and be done with it 🤣

You are the exact opposite to me. I had to fly down to Melbourne and drive it back to Sydney. And there aren't too many 370Z out there either. I just checked carsales, and there are none for sale, but a few 370GT Coupe's and even more GTR's.

Ah yeah maybe not for sale at this point in time but their numbers significantly exceed ours.

If you are rocking a G35/37 it’s time you get a stock Q60 and with a little pixie dust you can push this + 500 hp @wheels..

You seem to like them from all your posts about them, do you own one?

[wizlb]

Modifying the Q platform..

 

Check out this video, it really explains how to go from 300 hp at the crank to 450 at the wheels.

i know you're excited about your car, perhaps you should start a build thread so you can put in regular updates and spam all the youtube videos you want in there

[wizlb]

We have the same car, your car is a G and my car is a Q.. they are all Infiniti cars.. 

 

I was only sharing and most of the G drivers at one time were Skyline driver.

 

And maybe the G drivers will one day get a Q.. who knows these things

Interesting, I was not really watching it but just passing hrough, but, a guy got pulled over on the show where they check for alchohol & drurgs, I cant remember the show name, buts its three characters. He was driving a red 370GT Coupe. I watched the show (which I dont normally do as it *&#% me no end in the way they hold the final results over the ad breaks) because of the 370GT Coupe. Not a great reference...
