R35 IS NOT A SKYLINE*** pardon my word vomit. I have been corrected! Anyways, next cars being driven: Porsche GT4 as well as GT3. 😤🤙🏽

Bruh the GTR is ultimate goals. I like how your growing with the cars and not just jumping to finance the next best thing. Your channel is the realistic car guys channel #Respect.

“Being loud hardly going anywhere “ I felt that 😔

I own a 2017 gtr in orange with the peanut butter color inside. First off the name GTR carries more volume than a modern Supra. Secondly if you drive a fbo gtr like mine with all supporting mods, it literally will put a smile and leave a wow factor lasting expression. The GTR clunks on the older version has been addressed in the later models. The way you feel about the 2016 GTR is honest and I felt the same way when going for a ride in my tuners Plaid. When asked will I ever sell my car. The answer is no. I love everything about the built quality sound power comfort style and history of the GTR.

My dad has a 2020 gtr premium and quality over is much better than older gen. One thing about the gtr is how you feel and hear everything thats going on with the car mechanical wise. 2017+ facelift to me is the way to go . I definitely recommend driving a newer for sure!

For the 80-90k range, we are starting to see F90 M5s coming off lease. That is also awd, and the interior is second-to-none

[alfatech]

Natural progression from BMW or the Bupra is a Porsche. That's what most BMW enthusiasts move onto 👍

[Saltymoles]

I dont think ive ever been more excited for a youtuber to get a new car i dont even care what it is😂you’re just a good dude its cool to see you having fun

[Ultreras]

Good video Jon! You should do more reviews like this, you’re a natural.

Having driven both, (a friend's GTR and a A90 at the dealer) The Supra is miles ahead if you want something to drive on the street. The GTR is always clunky and feels out of place if you drive normally. Where you will see it shine is on the track or going through some twisty mountain roads. With the traction and the precision of the AWD system, you are able to be on throttle super early. Take an early apex, squeeze on the throttle and it will rotate the car for you while accelerating, you'll exit the corner at a much higher speed than when you entered - something no RWD car can do and other AWD cars will understeer. The stiff suspension, brutal power delivery and the hard shifting transmission, that's when it all makes sense - the GTR is a race car that you can drive on the street.

Performance aside—I say that because I think the performance is great—my biggest issue with the R35 platform is the interior quality. When they initially debuted in the US all of the Nissan plastics were excusable compared to price and the list of cars beaten by the R35. At current asking prices, new, used, and prior to COVID tax; the interior and ride quality are completely unacceptable.

[codyhammond]

The thing with GTRs is that it was a car that you can hop in, and compete with some supercars on the street for a fraction of price. Those cut costs are made obvious in the interior, but it has always been that way since it's inception, because that is how the GTR is made relatively affordable. These GTRs do not age well at all because of that fact, and interior amenities that were expensive then are cheaper now. That steering wheel and dash are horrible for today's standards, because they weren't really that great then.

My nephew just bought a new Supra, I drove it and was actually surprised how hard it hits when you stomp it from 30 mph. It really jumps.

[daddybotz]

I just got the R35 yesterday. Still cant believe its in my garage now.

[BoostedBunny]

Great video. I was considering selling my GTR for a Supra and after you're videoim definitely KEEPING my GTR. I think you should def test drive a 2017. Much more refined and luxurious vs 2016. All the things you liked about the Supra you'll have in the GTR (except price and looks which are subjective). The main advantage over a Supra for ME is the AWD for all year round driving, 4 seats, and a trunk. I had driven all RWD cars prior to my Maserati Ghibli and it's hard to go back after having AWD in these higher end cars. Cheers and look forward to more of your vids!

[jfiler]

I got to take one on the Napa back roads for about 3hrs. The inside reminded me of my old G37S coupe but the performance is insane. I think if you had the experience that I had then you would probably like it a lot more

[adriangarcia]

Big fan of the channel dude keep it up! I had a 12’ R35 and it was a dream come true. After some time was finding it hard to daily where I live and was starting to have issues. Jumped into a 2020 Supra and LOVED it! Felt great, new and was so easy to use daily. Recently sold the Supra and jumped into a 19’ R35 😅. Different cars both great. ✌️

[jsavoni]

Great video. Well I have always wanted a supra and got one end of Nov. 23 manual limited. So it's great to see you compare them and that the supra is up there

[MickDavies]

Hey first time on the channel. I'm in the same boat dude but I'm in Australia 🇦🇺. 32/33 yrs old, great job, currently love my golf r wagon which is wicked but really entertaining the idea of a 2010/11 GTR, V10 R8 or an RS6. End goal is a McLaren before I'm too old to enjoy it.

[matthewjudge]

I found that the fun in a GTR is on a twisty road, seeing how quickly you can get on the power, it's explosive coming out of corners. In a straight line it's fast but gets old if you're used to high power RWD cars because it's AWD and DCT systems make it feel less dramatic, it kinda just goes and you're along for the ride.
