View Full Version : My thoughts about the new GTR and a perspective about supercars.

The new GTR is already out in Japan and people are already in love with it very badly and pushed it to its limit, which already result in at least 2 crashed so far in the world (1st in japan and 2nd in Hong Kong). many people are in love with this car because it outran the porsche plus lots of other reasons. Some ignored this fact and would still go for other supercars because it's a nissan. personally I love the R34 and in logic I should love the R35, but I don't.
I love the R34 because its a tuner and it has lots of potential to customise into something I want and be different to every one else. interior is simple and all you do is grab the wheel and enjoy the car. R34 has the ATTESA-ETS system tht does the RWD when normal and AWD when you need more traction which makes the car so driftable for fun when you want to and stable when you need it.
The R35 however is completely different, the car is already good enough to impress ppl without customising. The interior is full of pornography which fancy alloy handle, touch screen, steering wheel as fat as a lambo with buttons. wired speedo wit the 0KMh point towards the right. The car is full AWD which means only steady no drifty. the seats are all leather, expensive.
I won't prefer it because its a supercar, but some people won't is becoz its nissan (=never a supercar with tht name). how does tht work?

PS: I'm only into light and subtle tuning, nothing close to MAxpower rubbish.

I think that the only GTR worth bothering with was the R32. The car in principle was built to Group A Touring Car regulations and as such was a purpose built race car. All others since have turned no wheels in anger; therefore I don't rate at all.

My reasoning is similar for the current Mitsubishi Evo X, I mean really, who are they trying to kid? It's not even close to a rally car anymore.

Mine's also crakced one themselves (just read it recently) so now loads of mods should be on their way. Still, an annoying thing from nissan
