So we went for a cruise in his 68 Camaro 350, he wanted to hang out with some flat chested ho-bag, Suddenly me and another guy were walking home cuz buddy ditched to innocently (no sarcasm) hang out with this skank, anyway so I see a BMW m3 e46 with roll-cage, recaro seats etc etc. so that got me talking about dream cars, I started to list mine which included the m3 we just saw, the r34, and R35 (GT-R). I looked 20 feet ahead of me and speak of the MF devil.

even if i had the extra cash, i wouldnt buy one of those or any new car from a lot. but i would have a bad a** 240 that would stomp on one of those any day of the week. sorry but its not that cool in my book.

As much as I love 240's, the chassis's and engine are about 20 years old. Any 240 that can beat a R35 GTR(and I'm not talking about just straigtline performance)will be unbearable to drive on the streets.

thats not true at all man. it has 480 crank horse power, and is 3800 pounds. its best quarter mile time is 11.6... and is $80,000 not that impressive if you ask me. the 240 is 1000 pounds lighter, and can make 400hp at the wheels very street able, that should put you at a low 11 sec (with a good driver). suspension, i doubt that the suspension on the new gtr would top a nice set of coilovers and some aftermarket suspension arms with either poly bushings or heim jonts. and as for brakes, brembo brakes or wilwood brakes can be had for about 1500-2000 and the price of those compared to the price tag on the gtr.... well you do the math.

gtr isnt going to top it in much if that same 240 i described was against it. lol now one thing the gtr does have on the 240 is comfort and luxury. i dont know what options they come with, i never looked in to one (only way i know what i do about them is a quick wikipedia search). but if you bought the cleanest 240 around and pay a shop to do all the work, you would have a far faster, better handling, better stopping car than the gtr for less than have the price.

at least thats how i see things /rant

im gonna go wipe my p*ssy dry now thanks

I saw one like 1 month after they came out. I just got out of a bowling ally and saw it parked in front of this Mexican restaurant. Funny thing is that this area is super ghetto, it is like "Little Mexico" over there. Kinda odd but whatever. I still think the R35 is cool, but there is still better cars out there like motoman said. I agree with his statements.

yes, there are better cars out there, but you still gotta admit that r-35 GT-R's are pretty cool looking. probably one of the few "modern car" body styling that i like. i'd still take an r32 or r34 of the GT-R family over the r35 though.
