Thanks for watching!

Crazy to think the R35 used to be criticized by some for feeling digital. 15 years on and it’s now quite analog in a world of so many sports cars gone even more digital.

Rented a 2018 for a weekend... and my god. I couldnt stop driving it. Never was a big fan until I drove one. Fell in love. I daily a 600whp STI and I still miss driving that GTR.

[Veyronp]

GTR been around so long its now an analog sports car haha

[carsonw]

This car is still my dream car 10 years later. Hopefully I'll be able to buy one some day

[SpaceFabrics]

Subtopher is awesome. Truly enjoy watching both. Awesome car...

[stillevan]

Substitute Topher has his OG Topher Cadence down pat now, really cool to see how he can match Topher Senior’s flow so well

[leblaze]

The GTR is such a classic. Love it or hate it, and plenty of people do, it has been an icon in car culture and it's great seeing you do a revisit of it!

[lexbraxman]

Reliable car that does literally everything, in any weather (with proper tires), including beating Ferraris and most super cars in races.

[knoxkill]

You are literally outside my work 🤣🤣 man if I only knew

[ricepony]

Future classic. I’ll never forget going around VIR in one when they first came out, the midrange punch and gravity defying brakes blew me away. It’s far more analog than it gets credit for.

[AndreThompson]

Damn, it's crazy that these are basically unchanged for 15 years. I'm still bummed they are auto only, but the performance is undeniable.

[dexstrat]

the fact that it doesnt have hood struts is crazy

[POVCruiser]

Nissan nailed it with this. Would love to own one someday!

Edit: Though I do think I like the MK5 supra a TAD bit more in terms of looks especially.

[oldshumi]

Thank you for the REAL gauges Nissans, its like a breath of fresh air

[themiler]

The Nissan GTR is impressive, its great speed and appearance makes it compete with high-end cars, just as the GTR 34 remains a car legend, this successor is another level.♥

[the.mylooo]

The design is really art of work especially with this colour 😍

[saiyan]

god man such a clean whip dude, hope I could spin this around one time in life !

[sammacintyre]

For the love of cars let’s just appreciate some of these legends. Would love to have one in the garage

[legitkong]

Some people hate it but I like the mechanical noises from the transmission. Makes it feel like a real race car and uncomputerized.

[DoSumMe]

I always call my 2009 Sentra a GTR because it has some of the same switchgear inside lol
