  • tiff should have reviewed it... clarkson's was good but sometimes his sarcasm get old.

  • im getting this car when im in my 30s!!!

  • what job would you need to get one of those? lol

  • @kalormon

    pilot maybe :D

  • where my father works somebody actually has that car, and i live down south

  • this road test is an embarrassment to the gtr

  • Tires filled with nitrogen? Big deal. My tyres are filled with 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen and 1% of other kinds of gas, beat that!

  • It's assembled by 14 highly trained ninjas and it's got more technology then Tokio :D

  • Nice beard! Oh, up closer it's your scarf or collar!

  • If I came by a wad of cash e.g. lotto, the R35 GT-R is where I'd stop for my supercar.

  • TEH NEW ONES BETTER!!!!!! lol

  • 1:05 Door hinges already crunching.

  • Check out Chris Harris's review "Nissan GT-R by autocar.co.uk" where he demonstrates that it is faster than the Porsche GT3 and the BMW M3. It's a waste of money to buy anything else other than a GT-R.

  • whats the diffrence between gtr premium and r35 gtr

  • @alcoholicmr The GTR Premium just means that it has all/most of the options or fully loaded basically. As for the "r35 gtr". well the R35 just means what body style it is. I.E the R34, R33, and R32. The previous skylines had the body style in the name but with this one they dont usually mention it. As well as getting rid of haveing the 2 different version previously (GTR and GTS). There is only GTR's now. Hope this helps.

  • @ImprezaRacerSTi

    finally thank you so much for your help

  • 10 people driving porsche 911 turbo

  • Listen at 4:03 thats the turbo whistle......Sounds like the turboes of a veyron....

  • lol it pains british people to say good stuff about a car that cost half as much as a 911 turbo and is better in every way.

  • Does he know any words except 'great'? :\

  • naa but japen are shit  we are better at raceing but your to good for drifting

  • worst review ever, he compared the clutch system to a golf.. are you kidding me?

  • @reavrr: in fact, it's exactly the same as the DSG in a Golf.....a double clutch gearbox, and VW were actually the first to sell such a gearbox......(But Porsche created it 25 years ago!)

  • @Kheops63 Yea, but the difference is in the reaction time. I still think that 386 CPU does the same processing as P4, but P4 does it faster, that's what makes it different.

  • @reavrr: the speed difference can't be felt by a human being, maybe with a P4 (not even with an old 386...), because both of the gearbox have no torque cut! The difference with the Nissan'one is it can handle more torque and that's all!

  • @Kheops63 Gotta love the torque cut and suspension tweaking that the Ferrari one does.

  • If you give me a Bugatti Veyron, I'll sell it and buy a Nissan GTR R35.

  • @maybe183

    yep; and with the rest you can buy even a big house, lets say two more GTR's and a hangar plus a small plain ;D

  • @HerrVonRossi nice! XD

  • clarkson did it better :P ......gave up his neck for it

  • @ajayjohnson2 could u send me a link to the clarkson video for the R35 GT-R

  • @ajayjohnson2 Yea, but Plato can actually drive..

  • @ajayjohnson2 A.K.A. never let young people drive

  • @ajayjohnson2 stig is the best  lol

  • Respect for Nissan.

  • If I had one of these, it would probably be my everyday driver. I have an 07 350z, and it's my only car. Add AWD and a back seat, and yeah.. I'd be pretty much set.

  • drifting baby. thats some nice drift...

  • 8 people hates those damn ninjas

  • look how this car brings joy 

  • 30000 pounds for a car that can stay with the 911 turbo?

    Damn Japanese's

  • ninjas lol

  • who buys a 90k dollar car and puts a tone of miles on it.. u wouldnt do that 2 a lambo or ferrari or nuthing high class..people that own a skyline dont drive 50miles 1 way to work everyday for 9 years..that car would be lucky to see 60k miles

  • @wjezzer if i had one of these i would drive this thing single everyday...

  • if you can afford to buy it in the first place, maintenance costs should not be a worry to you.

  • @sarzamineiran

    these can be bought second hand in japan for just 50,000 USD now days........ so maybe not :P

  • @sarzamineiran if you dont mess with it even if you do up to a point it wont break its a nissan gtr they are bullet proof

  • @MichaelCoolGuy86 by the way the people that buy GT-Rs are the same people that buy lambos and high end sports cars. im sure they can afford an oil change or just buy another GTR altogether lol.

  • Understeers on high speed corners because that's the limit of the chassis in lateral G's, technology can't change that without downforce. I bet the understeer is no worse than a gallardo ,GT3 or R8 though, it just feels like it reletively because it behaves so well in all other areas.

  • My dream car Lol One day will be in my garage.

  • @krasav4ik82 keep dreaming ;)

  • It does 0-60 in 3.2s stock on numerous magazine. And the new 2012 Nissan GT-R now has 530 hp instead of 485 hp and have 488 pound feet of torque verse 434. And it beat the Corvette ZR1 by 2 full second on the famous German ring on slightly wet track.

  • 3:47 What kinda laugh is that? lol

  • it worth 30k, but he said uk taxes will push it to 60k, is he serious?!

  • @hamdanae Cars are heavily taxed in europe based on how much Co2 they produce, the displacement of the engines, type of fuel etc. Which is why small diesel cars are very popular in european countries

  • i Wish I had a Gtr..

  • this car is a baby ferrari killer

  • everybody dogs the looks of this car but i absolutely love it

  • its a good sign that his only real knock is the torque split causing understeer because thats fairly easily remedied by decreasing the amount of torque to go to the front

  • Um, the three Rs arent as good as it gets... you can turn the last R completely to off on the traction...

  • How did JP powerslide a GT-R on dry tarmac? it had Chinese made tires?

  • @Arai4lpinestars ur fuking stupid its called off button for traction control

  • @zampakto93 even the "Drift King" and NOMUKEN can't slide that car, you NIGGA.

  • @Arai4lpinestars i have seen people drift a gtr u CRAKA

  • Ninja's :D

  • no top gear did the best review on the gt-r

  • great review. Looks manlier than the M3, in my opinion. U need this and a cool chick, not hot; otherwise, plain golddigger. Good job to Nissan ill say

  • THE SHIT!!!!!!!!!

  • The greatest car. Ever.

  • あぁしびれる

    

  • man i want that guys job

  • best performance for price.

  • pre-cum 1:11

  • 32 gtr rulez 35 is maxima copy

  • i wouldnt be a fan off fifth gear but thats a brilliant review of the gtr much better than clarkson sore neck and a bin man coming to save him

  • "You see? Really useful information"......  HAHHAAHA! so goddamn nice comment

  • why do u need to beat a ferrari or whatever anyway?

  • FAP FAP FAP FAP FAP FAP FAP

  • the car is cool but not as cool as ferrari

  • My fav car of all time. Even if I was a millionaire I would have one of these.

  • i'll stick with the ZR1

  • i must say, i have found this a bit wierd but when i see a R33 or R32, some time after i see a GT-R, iv seen 7 GT-Rs in real life, saw 1 yesterday :D

  • I want to get one of these someday so I can spank rich, fat old men in their 300 grand italian and german cars, and they'll have never seen it coming from a Datsun :p

  • Good thing that 60% of Japan's budget goes to education.... go Japan engineers :D

  • Jap's rules

  • beats any car! not neccessarily in looks (i love the sharp, stiff looks a LOT :D), but just pure fun :)

    no damn porsche, oh noo :D not even the R8, though i like that too, or an Enzo, oh noo :D R35 GT-R all the way! :)

  • @GenAdams i agree, the muscular look runs in the family of all Skyline's, a phenomenal 0-60 in 3.5 secs and its economical, happye faces all round :]

  • @GenAdams the gtr cant beat the enzo or the porsche

  • @blackjack7154 it did ... check nurburgring lap times 

  • @blackjack7154 it can beat the enzo but it came only 1.5 seconds off at the nurburgring and it has beaten all the porches including the carrera gt

  • Bit like a VW.....yeah right!! At least its quicker than your Daewoo eh Plato!!

  • Bit like a VW.....yeah right!!

  • "are basically hand assembled by team of juz 14 highly trained ninjas" LOL! <3<3

  • wow only 30,000 pounds for that back in japan? those lucky bastards

  • What an amazing car...I will buy ten if I hit the lottery tomorrow. This is probably the most review supercar in the world. Even the Alien Top Gear guys are impressed. Best supercar in the Universe...

  • the "heavenly" music at 5:10-end is from TimeSplitters: Future Perfect lawl

  • the "heavenly" music at 5:10-end is from TimeSplitters: Future Perfect lawl

  • WTF WITH THE SCREEN AT THE BEGINNING

  • @DemonOfRazgriz89 i know right ;) looool

  • 5th gear.....on that car....not quite "top gear" :)

  • i like german cars.

  • i like german cars.

  • I so want one. too bad all roads in our country are sh*t. Bumps everywhere, always repairing etc ect. Still, I think it's better than some italian roads.

  • it took the fastest production car in the world, the bugatti veyron, 7:40 around the ring?? thats pretty damn slow for what i was expecting it to do...

  • i don't like the gtr because its too electronic i want a car that will seperate the bad drivers from the good

  • how about the R34? the older brother of this GTR?

  • @riujithetechnician funny as i was writing the other comment i was thinking maybe i should mention past models such as the r32,r33,and r34. i like the older skyline/gtr better because they aren't so elcetronicaly controlled having no experience in skylines i wcant say much but i do know that the driver and car have become too seperated to a point were it's becoming hard to tell a good driver from a poser.

  • @chainsawboy1996 exactly but you have to commend nissan for making this KITT (knight rider) like car. I mean you don't see this kind of car everyday right? as for the R34, in my opinion was created for racing enthusiast. ALL HAIL the SKYLINE!!!!

  • Jason Plato was really annoyed with how good it is because he bought a Porsche 997 turbo for more than three times the price of the GTR..

  • @aaron34nismo

    if English is not your native language, he did mention the flaws because "it's his job to do so", otherwise it will be another Clarkson-rip-off, which, to be very honest, is more annoying

  • "a great... bit of metal"

  • 7:38 in nurburgring thats old...they did it in 7:26 now

  • wow that awesome car only costs 30 grand in japan me wants !!!

  • That shouldn't stop you buying this. Its a GTR, not a Skyline. The presenter made a bit of a cock up at the begining.

  • Japan is the best.

  • @Jamzkangster

    you are a dumbass

  • the best car

    cant wait for R36

  • Way better review than TopGear.

  • i agree

  • jason did a really good review, i would have this car anyday, gtr r35 is the best car ever and it is useable, dont buy any supercar that is more than it because it is a waste of money

  • Probably the best review of this car

  • there are only few cars that is handcrafted. the 1st generation NSX and this GTR and the LFA.

  • more so than any of those, the pagani zonda, Ive been to the factory, there are no robots, no crafting machines, even the carbon chasis is baked by hand in a GIANT autoclave...

  • This car is really as fast as Nissan and automotive review claims. I imported one from japan and it arrived on xmas eve.

  • I...MUST...HAVE...THIS...CAR!

  • i've seen 3 in the us so yeas they r here

  • will those ever be in the us???

  • @haydenkx85 probably not since most skylines can't be in the us. but maybe who knows.

  • do you guys even live in the US????? I live in LA and not even the nice part and Iv seen several! A RED ONE JUST PAST MY HOUSE!!! xD wow great timing! lol

  • skylines are illegal in WA. I forgot to say skyline not any nissan sorry.

  • Well that can be in the US as it is not a Skyline. It is a GTR, Nissan dropped the Skyline name whn they built this car.

  • @michaelball123 no, they didn't drop the skyline name. the older gtr's (r32, r33, r34, etc.) were all based on the nissan skyline. but this time round, they wanted a bespoke chassis. so they don't call it a skyline anymore because it isn't a skyline. the skyline is the infiniti g37 in japan.

  • yes its already here even. ive already seen 2 even though i live in a small town.

  • ummm yea they have posters all over nissan dealerships. hell i even saw one driving around in my neighborhood

  • They been here for awhile already.

  • one of my favorite all time cars. just incredible. Everyone says this car feels robotic and cold but w/ all the history and pedigree, its definately not cold

  • i dont like the tone he uses to explain the car, he is sort of more negative, and he dident mention all the other super cars it fucked in the ring

  • just got one and yes...its fucking amazing

  • fuck taxes

  • dang the question in the begginning of the movie, i would have gotten right becuz its c and could have won a skyline but im in the us so i cant anyways

  • in the u.s they will tax u to death lol

  • Comment removed

  • inmho , nissan needs to go back to

    marketing 101 .... the most stupid thing they ever did is that they didnt call it

    "Sky-line" .... it's just GTR ...would it matter if you asked? ..yes..it's the whole concept!

  • I think there marketing team supersedes your "honest opinion". This car is a huge departure from the skyline of yesteryear, and anyone with enough money for thing can see past the name

  • tnx for your comment , a rspected idea indeed. nevertheless , the "name" is a basic element in the product mix It's very essential in creating a theme for the product . i'm an MBA student / ex-Aston Martin ..i might see things from a different prospective. tnx agian.

  • Marketing 101, who gives a crap about the name, they could have called it 5hit80x 800 for all I care, it would still be the popular sports car it is today because of what it can do and bang for the buck.

  • your opinion , tnx ...

    & relax btw>

  • well opinion or not, obviously the car is a success, so you can say what you want about their marketing strategy concerning the name.

  • ya right , i didnt say anything about the car .i was negating their strategy. which you didnt like and stormed over by saying"Marketing 101, who (gives a crap) about the name,"

    there're lots of pple out there (Business Community Business Pro's Business Students Researchers) , who gives a crap!. u cant just blow that away.

    Express your opinion in a civilized way plz!

  • Hey I'm not attacking you, so I don't see anything uncivilized in what I said. My point is, Skyline or GTR, whatever the cars name is, its a commercial success. Period.

  • GO AND SCARE THAT 911 TURBO!!!!

  • can anyone tell me the name of the song that started playing at 4:12.

    much appreciated.

  • "rick roll'd"

  • idk but its the same song which played on Top Gear when they took three supercars through france.

  • Its a very powerfull car, BUT , the presentation, Homer Simpson would drive faster then this homo..

  • You'll have to remind us of Croatian drivers winning racing championships.

  • Top Gear Fanboys make me sick...

  • ROFL owned... Beautiful car... And if you guys can't change the oil and filter on the car yourself.. I'm sorry for you. :p

  • yap yap yap yap yap.. its like a damn forum.. shut up stop bitching and enjoy the video. all u asswipes piss me off.

  • Launch control is not meant to launch the car!!! (according to nissan)

  • What i like about the GTR is that you don't have to be a professional driver to drive the car around the track. All the electronics in the car can help correct mistakes on the drivers part, that's why I think it would consistently beat many cars on the market within the price range and beyond.

  • the main bad thing about it is that it only makes 480 hp with 17.8 psi which is kind of sad in terms of hp for the psi

  • Yes but the torque is inmediatli with no lag and diesel low torque. Max torque from 3200 to 5200 rpms not like supercars that have all at end. And for 1000€ you can have a 570HP and 90 ft-tq improvement (121.5 NM) with COBB Acessport. Or for 10000€ you can have the HKS GT680, or hensessey's V700 for 15.000€

  • but you see why would i want to dump more money into a car thats warranty is voided if i use the sport mode on the car, with a transmission that will break. And the high maintenance costs since everything on it is hand made and custom made for each car. This guy could be wrong but i think he said 3000 for an oil change and oil filter change? f that crap. for 80k i can get a new r32 golf and put a twin turbo on it tune it make it the way i wanted and still have some change left over.

  • ya cause a golf would run laps around the g35.. lol. you can put $5k into a civic that would destroy the g35, but it's still a civic..

  • sorry you would need more than $5k to have a civic run laps around a GTR, maybe on a 1/4 mile, maybe (2nd hand turbo kit, then have the Civic gutted). on any lap any day, I dont think so.

  • only 480hp with 17.8psi??

    Dude, if you got some spare change to spare toss me that car over!

  • 2 gripes; no prestige badge eg; uh nice nissan. and it uses a lot more gas than a 997tt to go a little faster, thought these guys were the strictest on emissions?

  • chuck a porsche badge on the front if you want but they'll charge you an extra $100,000 for the same car!
