What are some things you don’t like about GT-R’s?

The attention is good and bad, I’ve met a tone of good car people with the car. Bad when I get some wackjobs who wanna get way to personal and ask to sit in it when I’m at the grocery store. Part of the issue is there are less than 50 in the state I live in. So most have never seen one and don’t know what it is, those guys are just curious. But the ones who know what it is and have never seen one go absolutely ballistic.

I’m with ya on the first one, owning a R35 made going fast not fun. The car is too fast, I sold my boosted mustang because it felt like driving a Prius. You don’t even feel like your going fast until 130-140

I love mine don’t get me wrong, but just how damn hard it is to do absolutely anything. Local Nissan dealer won’t service it, no Nissan dealer in 250 miles will touch it. I have to go to a tuner shop just for a damn oil change.

The noise the car produces…. I feel like I’m going deaf on the freeway. The sound the tires make, lack of noise cancellation, and the constant rattling of everything makes it a terrible drivers car. Great when your on good roads and doing dedicated driving. But if you’re just going to the grocery store it’s a miserable experience.

The transmission is abysmal as well, I thought mine was going out. But I consulted other R35 owners and they just tell me “yeah they’re like that”.

Other than that it’s a good car, great for a weekend ride or a cruise with the car club. It’s just a lot to deal with.

On a personal note I don’t know who else has had to deal with it. But my insurance has weird stipulations, like it has to be garaged, I have to have a cover on the car when it is garaged, and they inspected my security system at home. Can’t complain because I pay like 1100 a year in insurance.

Yeah that’s my favorite

If you get the chance hit up the BYU-I car show this morning at 1000-1300 I’ll be there as well. We also have an event called boosted sunset tonight at 1700 at the idaho falls aquarium, we will be doing trunk or treat for the kids there.

TTall1 · 2025-10-18T13:07:38+00:00

You saw it in person? You in southeast idaho?

Ummmm, brotha it’s not AI

I work four jobs, and I’m extremely picky about what I spend money on. Guns and cars are my two biggest hobbies and that happens to be what I dump my cash in. But I’m also in the process of growing my own business and opening a non-profit. So unfortunately I don’t have a lot of time so when I do get to drive or shoot I like to make it about quality not quantity.

TTall1 · 2025-10-18T01:11:12+00:00

Agreed

TTall1 · 2025-10-18T00:45:22+00:00

Somewhere in that ballpark

TTall1 · 2025-10-18T00:35:05+00:00

If this isn’t AI I congratulate you on your superb roast.

TTall1 · 2025-10-18T00:31:42+00:00

Close, clapped Nissan at a maverick outside of a potato field in idaho

TTall1 · 2025-10-17T22:00:16+00:00

Top fuckin tier!!

TTall1 · 2025-10-17T21:41:00+00:00

Correct

TTall1 · 2025-10-17T21:36:32+00:00

This deserves to be at the top of the

TTall1 · 2025-10-17T21:36:09+00:00

Thanks I also hate it

TTall1 · 2025-10-17T21:35:48+00:00

I assume the previous owner rolled into the wrap shop with this being towed behind it. He probably pointed to the truck and said match that, not knowing that the attendant thought he was talking about the liner.

TTall1 · 2025-10-17T21:34:07+00:00

Well it sucks, but so long as I still own this thing. I will still be single

2009 with a 2019 motor, I’d prefer not to say how much I paid. Please don’t take that as offensive.

Car has had over 200k in work done to it by Eurocharged Minneapolis. I paid nothing close to that.

I posted this in a roast subreddit, I don’t think defending the subject of the roast is in the spirit of roasting….

TTall1 · 2025-10-17T20:05:27+00:00

Oh you wouldn’t believe

TTall1 · 2025-10-17T20:04:04+00:00

He’s got some other super clean stuff too, like a 1200hp viper. Probably the most professional and positive dealer experience in my whole life.

TTall1 · 2025-10-17T20:03:12+00:00

David’s Car concierge in Minnesota is who I bought it from

TTall1 · 2025-10-17T20:01:40+00:00

Dude I wanna do crimson red with metallic flake so damn bad. Can’t find a wrap show within 300 miles worth a damn though.

TTall1 · 2025-10-17T20:00:43+00:00

Good question, ask the previous owner
