Guys and girls.

With a mere 4 weeks to go till my car arrives and just coz I need a bit of an uplift and less worry about warranties, parts, HPC's and Nissan....what really makes you smile about your R35?

 

[axolotl]

Overtaking manoeuvres (blink and you miss them).............all in the interests of road safety of course

 

[axolotl]

also safely taking (well sighted) bends at speeds that would not feel safe in my impreza

Cross country run on an unfamiliar scenic route, recently through the Scottish borders....

He seems very intelligent to me then....

The certain knowledge that you've bought the car-least-likely-to-be-described-as-a-hairdressers-car.

Man, am I glad I never bought that TT?!?

 

[supraman]

Carlsberg don't make cars but, if they did, they'd probably make the best car in the world - an R35 GT-R!

I actually believe that the GT-R might be the best all-round sports car on the planet. Who's with me?

I reckon you're prob right.

Dry track

I have had these cars in past and none would stay with the GTR, if I did a mean average under all 4 conditions.

996RS
997RS
996GT2
430F1
SuperLeggera
CSL
Evos + Scoobs
TVRs

the closest would have been the Lambo.

What impresses me most about the GTR, is it can hold it's own on a dry track, against well setup and well driven GT3s.. but would annihilate pretty much everything under the other 3 conditions.

I enjoy leaving late and still arriving at my destination early!

 

[zeyd]

3rd gear !

 

[SpeedBear]

And of course the ability to tailor the car to your own desires, be that performance or looks inside and out, with the help of a very large base of suppliers.

 

[MSM]

3rd gear !

and 4th !:wavey:

and 4th !:wavey:

By the time you hit 5th you have had time to think about 130 mph and the legal consequences and should be backing off.

Sorry,I responded in a humourous way to the question ! I of course would never condone or encourage driving in such a fun,sorry meant to say ,dangerous, way on public roads

 

[supracat]

you're probably right Supraman - of course, with one exception, the UK Supra TT - as my old one was mod'd to over 500bhp with loads of good tailout slides to be had........

when are you next over at big Duncs???

 

[Steve]

The Julier, San Bernardino and Stelvio passes !!!

Interesting take and a very similar car history to me.

Agree completely apart from 1 thing.

The GTR is found wanting in the wet, it could not annihilate a skoda in the wet, not if you wanted to keep it in 1 piece.
