Even that's subjective, some people don't like the typical pancake designs of the European cars. I'd prefer something with substance like the GTR, same as some people like Hummers, Jeeps and G Wagons
I have one of these 2017s although non-Nismo, it's a great car to live with everyday. I've had two GT-Rs over the past 3 years and can vouch that they're great for everyday driving. That said, I will be getting my hands on either a Porsche GT car or a McLaren soon. The GT-R is awesome but after living with one for a while it's time for something a bit more special.
Really speaks to how much Sofyan holds himself back when you see how the GTR made him respond in this video. Guess the car really brings out the rawness in a person!
Miraak Dova unfortunately times are changing and the things the old Godzilla has cannot be present in the new R35. Especially when other companies like Porsche have scary quick PDK transmissions, not even drivers mod can shift as fast as a dual clutch transmission.
I remember the first time I drove a GT-R. I was rolling at like 5 MPH and just "touched" the gas pedal and the car bolted forward. Its ridiculous speed literally made me lose control of my face. I have never experienced an instantaneous smile before. It was like my very soul smiled first then it showed up on my face afterwards. Anyone who likes cars definitely needs to drive this car once in their life.
This has got to be my favorite of your reviews. I loved how honest you were about your opinions and the emotions it stirred in you. LOVED your pure reactions to it. Made me LOL. Nicely done, sir.
Yeah no shit the GTR doesn’t look as great when compared to a Lambo those things are pure poster porn and the GTR is far far more subdued. I like the ‘subdued’ supercars.
Rick Nazario the fact that your dumbass even mentioned lambo makes u sound like a bigger sped. Fuckin moron ur trying to compare Italian to Japanese with cars that are double and triple the prices. And yes the Nissan GT-R is the best looking Japanese made car there is so please stfu.
i somewhat disagree with "losing track" of the wheel mounted paddles, on the track your hands are always 9-3 so there's no way to lose track of where the paddles are regardless of wheel position
Wrong, and here's why? Because Matts test drove 3 different GT-R's including this same press released one you see here and never not once launched it. SMH!!!
MAN, your reactions are so lively, I feel at times like i am sitting right next to you> This and the jeep track-hawk launch reaction was so much fun to watch, love it, please keep doing more !
Maybe its because I'm Japanese but seeing his reaction makes me so happy haha. I've never driven one yet though! We get made fun of it a lot but cheers to Japan obsession with perfection and it paying off and making people happy.
This car was new when Need For Speed Pro Street came out. It is OLD when it comes to supercars but still impressive as it can hold it's own against the new NSX.
I'm a huge Nissan/Infiniti fan, but I'm just not seeing it with this car. It's $170,000 for a GTR with the NISMO package, and for that you get turbo lag, a dual clutch transmission with only 6 gears, and an instrument panel/infotainment system that looks 10 years old? I don't get it. For the same money I could have an Audi R8 V10 or a Porsche 911 Turbo with none of the drawbacks this car has, plus more style, charisma, and racing pedigree. Is it really any wonder Nissan didn't even sell 600 of these cars in 2017?
I agree that the GTR may not be one of those good looking supercars or best sounding sport vehicles to some people but what i love about it is that it is its own thing and doesn't try to be like its competitors.
“WHERE’S THE TURBO LAG? IT DISAPPEARED!!” That’s a drive mode for ya. Eco, comfort, weather, sport, no turbo lag lol. I always look forward to your reviews.
I love the car's look. It's iconic and it's truly different. A refresh should only be subtle, somewhat like the 911 has evolved in time but kept the 911 look.
What a car, and the tests that would impress all is how well it turns and carries speed thru them, it’s phoenomimnal and anyone comparing this to a camaro or mustang has no idea , as a gtr r35 especially nismo has supercar status, and has proven it for a decade , every manufacturer super car is always comparing to the gtr.
Brandon Sunthivong I meant to put a period next to the 370Z meaning that the Frontier and 370Z are still old while the Titan and armada finally got redesigned
There’s no lag when it’s in launch.. the whole point of launch control. Even in my Mercedes AMG, I can eliminate the turbo lag by having it in Race Mode which also has turbo running high.. no lag there.
Commando Master agree. At the $150k-$200k range, there are many great sports cars to choose from. It's still utterly fantastic but when there's cars like the mcLaren 570s ~the same price, performance and to most better looks/more special - I think it would be hard to justify the nismo if someone is comparing similar cars without already being a big fan of the gtr.
You'd have to be an idiot to pass on a 570S if it were priced exactly the same as this GTR. Most GTRs are cheaper than the McLaren though, and for good reason, just looks alone the GTR loses miserably.
So some research on used McLarens. Most to all the suspension parts have to be replaced at 20,000 miles. And most likely you'll need the whole engine redone as well. These Nissan are like Rolex watches and will last a long time.
GTR loses miserably? GTR is 10 years old versus the current McLaren. It took 10 years for the Euro competition to catch up to the GTR. For that reason alone, Godzilla will always be king.
I think it’s too pricey. You can get a 2014 GTR. Add maybe 10k or more in mods and you’ll have more HP than the 2017 model, and a lot more than certain competitors in this segment
Subjective. The reason I love the GTR is the looks. Not into the whole futuristic style. GTR portrays a humble look. Absolutely sexy. If they were to ever change the look dramatically, I would hate it. Other than that, good review.
The GTR Nismo would be a nice car but it's just too expensive. You can completely pay off a brand new Z06 Vette, hellcat, or a shelby and still have money left.
DatCarGuy310 yeah, and the GTR Doesn't compete with any of those. That's like saying a Bentley is overpriced because you can pay off a Mercedes s class and still have money left over. The GTR competes with super cars
To proclaim such an asinine statement about base super cars speaks volumes about your intellect. The only fanboi is you. This Frankenstein of assorted ideas and influences from lower Nissan models is a waste of money considering the price bracket.
Stop calling it Godzilla God dammit. That's reserved for the R32 GTR its tolerated for the R33 and R34. The R35 is more related to the FM platform than the Skyline.
Cali Kali That is stupid, kid. The GT-R price is fair. There is nothing that comes to the GT-R's performance spec even if its over 100K. Everything with in GT-R's performance tier is well over 200K. You are the same people that insult the STi for the pricing. The STi is priced fairy at 35-40K because there is nothing that rivals its performance for the same or less price.
Just laying out some facts, if you look at nurburgring times the nismo GTR is 8th on the list beating out many "super cars" priced well above it. has nothing to do with the brand, i have my qualms with nissan
I've never understood when people say you lose track of steering wheel mounted paddle shifters. If your hands are at 9 and 3 where they should be, it makes it even easier to shift gears through turns.
Trust me if I was behind that wheel, I would be swearing because that's how excited I would be. xD
Altered Physix alright
Altered Physix i
this guys gay as hell
i'm already swearing in my base model gtr, I would be dead in a nismo
GTR Wendy omg I remember you from Alejandro’s shoutout
This is why I like your reviews. Company gives you a $100k car to review and you're still honest about things you don't like.
Artak091 it’s actually way more with options. Could reach up to more than 150k
Artak091 unless it’s a Honda Civic with a manual he’s gonna basically not like something about it lmao.
Luvia Sama nothing's perfect in this world
AD M that nismo starts at 155k
AD M nismo gtr is £150k
How dare you say its not good looking
Its not good looking to him because it isn't a 6 foot 3 muscled guy.
I mean it is a little fat.
This car in person looks hella better than video shows it.
I like it
Dark_Angel_of_Death i can agree
Gtr is not a good looking car .....are u crazy ?!??
Gtr looks amazing
Its only when you park it next to a McLaren, R8, Lambo, etc that you notice the flaws in the design.
Even that's subjective, some people don't like the typical pancake designs of the European cars. I'd prefer something with substance like the GTR, same as some people like Hummers, Jeeps and G Wagons
Pretty ugly, looks like a boat.
Redline Reviews I think the GTR in person is a sexy ass car.
salomondrin's video of the nismo would prove that the gtr is very attractive to women.
Gtr isn't a great looking car.
Gtr is a stiff car.
Gtr has a nasty sound engine.
*puts foot on gas* "HOLY FUCK!!!" 😂😂
Orlando Tovar 👍
Lol
😂😂😂
Always loved your reviews, you're always very honest and you have a good time doing it! My favorite reviewer on TH-cam!

Wide body it and make it 1,000hp >:) now you don’t need to sell it

long live the Godzilla :D
Miraak Dova
Why?
Miraak Dova unfortunately times are changing and the things the old Godzilla has cannot be present in the new R35. Especially when other companies like Porsche have scary quick PDK transmissions, not even drivers mod can shift as fast as a dual clutch transmission.
Miraak Dova would be interesting to see a manual R35
Long live the Godzilla!
@@Miraak0Konahrik HAHAHAHAHH youre such a fanboy😂. The r35 has already ended its production.

Thanks to this video I pulled the trigger and got myself one and a NIsmo too.
Dude I love your reviews but especially love the ones where you get so surprised by the performance of a car you're driving.....kills me every time 😂🤣
I watch so many GTR's videos and can never get tire of it. Wish I had a GTR :(
Why are navs even in cars anymore? Smartphones in every pocket...
in case your phone is low on battery?
Zed Cars have USB ports these days?
You obviously don't have navigation in your car. It's very convenient
Miguel Abrego I do have navigation in my car. It’s easier and more convenient for many to use their phone for navigation instead.
@@user-ji3il6ce2o safer to utilize the hands free features via the cars navigation and Bluetooth so you won't be nearly distracted
Your reaction to the acceleration made me push the subscribe button. When you truly love performance and cars you can't hide it
i somewhat disagree with "losing track" of the wheel mounted paddles, on the track your hands are always 9-3 so there's no way to lose track of where the paddles are regardless of wheel position
Yao Xiao I was thinking the same thing when he said that.
Godzilla is the king of the v6 sound than no other. Nissan makes one of the best v6s than no other.
The 370 is quick as shit ... I couldn’t imagine driving this!
Wow!
True; owned a 370z and it definitely was fast.
Sofyan your face @ 16:24 was priceless. It's as if it was the first time you felt this driving a car. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
You just transformed into SubaruWrxFan for that few seconds you launched it LOL
Ahahaaa
Wrong, and here's why? Because Matts test drove 3 different GT-R's including this same press released one you see here and never not once launched it. SMH!!!
MAN, your reactions are so lively, I feel at times like i am sitting right next to you> This and the jeep track-hawk launch reaction was so much fun to watch, love it, please keep doing more !
When he’s doing the launch control-his body language says theres a SLIGHT bit of hesitation from releasing the brake lol
Maybe its because I'm Japanese but seeing his reaction makes me so happy haha. I've never driven one yet though! We get made fun of it a lot but cheers to Japan obsession with perfection and it paying off and making people happy.
3:49 LMAO
Same key as a goddamn Sentra, wtf is wrong with Nissan
masterwhopper414
yeah. buy a 170k car. get a key that a nissan versa has
I thought about a 2007 Altima when I seen that key. Same exact key jus with the Nissan badge on it, horrible.
Hideika Gaming most cars today have that feature.
Just get normal GTR nismo version is like M, AMG, RS
Hideika Gaming why should it be any different? What would you suggest?
This car was new when Need For Speed Pro Street came out. It is OLD when it comes to supercars but still impressive as it can hold it's own against the new NSX.
I'm a huge Nissan/Infiniti fan, but I'm just not seeing it with this car.

porscheman998 exactly, I bought my 2017 Audi used and it barely costs more
This is absolutely my dream car! This car motivates me to get through college
Great review, love your reactions. Priceless! Feels like I'm right there with you. Everytime I'm interested in a car, I come to redline. The best!
I don't know why Sofyan doesn't have more subscribers seeing how much knowledge he has on cars keep up the good work

And we love it! 👌🏻
Ron Ulysses Swanson LMAO!
Waab yall dirty for that man 😂
Ron Ulysses Swanson , that’s your boy friend though.
You changed your mind real quick when you started driving it, your weirdness was wiped away super fast!
I will buy a GTR by the end of this year.
I’ll be back to post it 👌🏼
When?
3 more months
Minoxidil Journey you didn’t get it
That V6 sounds sweet from the exhaust
Give me this over a tesla any time of the day Gtr has heritage The testla simply doesnt
GTR is legendary please Tesla is nothing compared to it, I’d even rather get a 370z than a RC car lol.
“WHERE’S THE TURBO LAG? IT DISAPPEARED!!” That’s a drive mode for ya. Eco, comfort, weather, sport, no turbo lag lol. I always look forward to your reviews.
When a car break your back, it’s worth every penny.
Tritan what if a man breaks your back 😗😗😚
I love the car's look. It's iconic and it's truly different. A refresh should only be subtle, somewhat like the 911 has evolved in time but kept the 911 look.
I'm buying the 2020 GTR
Did you buy it?
@@kendallg556 no. I've reviewed a nismo and found myself to enjoy it, but not as much enjoyment as something like a gt3rs.
What a car, and the tests that would impress all is how well it turns and carries speed thru them, it’s phoenomimnal and anyone comparing this to a camaro or mustang has no idea , as a gtr r35 especially nismo has supercar status, and has proven it for a decade , every manufacturer super car is always comparing to the gtr.
Its rare when he gets excited when he accelerates. 👀
Almost 10 years and its still op as hell. Made all the car brands stepped up their game! T
Sounds like you had one too many Redbulls or something man, giving me a cardiac arrest list listening to you GEEZ
Love this car! Enjoyed the review and test drive. Definitely one of my top 5 favorite cars.
I see the wide body challenger that ur about to review
YESSSS... ;)
Redline Reviews Thanks for the heart :D
Around 3 minutes I saw it
Redline Reviews gtr Nismo vs wide body hellcat. Now that would make an awesome video.
What that giant red Challenger lol
such a handsome exterior and interior.
I used to love the design of this car but it looks dated now. Come on Nissan it's been over 10 years now, time for a new look.
can you say 911= 50years of the same look
C'mon you should know Nissan by now. They hardly even update their cars lol. Look at the Frontier, 370Z, the Titan & Armada FINALLY got redesigned.
R36 coming. .Just you wait. .
Baasil F. 370z still have the same body. We’re talking about a new body design
Brandon Sunthivong I meant to put a period next to the 370Z meaning that the Frontier and 370Z are still old while the Titan and armada finally got redesigned
Godzilla is an oldie but goodie. Even the base model GTR is a beast. Just wished that Nissan would give the Z series some love.
Imagine the Maxima with that engine
Dâniël Rodriguez
to bad the maximas 3.5l is a cvt. but I heard that the cvt is not bad
jmanyes yea it's good at down shifting
I know a guy who dropped this engine into a 6mt g37 sedan. It was meant to be.
imagine the juke with that en- oh wait, they're already make it
Dâniël Rodriguez R u crazy? Do you wanna torque steer off a cliff?
This was your best review to date. Never seen you enjoy a ride so much and say the “F” & “S” word so much! Loved it
Overkill feels like an understatement. :P
With a midpipe this car sounds very exotic and sounds much better than the AMG models which sounds like tractors
Your saying gtr gear shifting in automatic is very slow it's because you are also moving very slow. . try it run faster so you'll know. .
There’s no lag when it’s in launch.. the whole point of launch control. Even in my Mercedes AMG, I can eliminate the turbo lag by having it in Race Mode which also has turbo running high.. no lag there.
YUNG BUNNY MIFFY lol.. that’s good to know.
Randy R the cla wouldn't stand a chance against this this is a completely different league
f181234 thanks for stating the obvious.. funny how I started talking about turbo lag and now you talked about the performance and how fast it is
Love the car, but Nissan is on crack with a MSRP of $170k.
I wanna be as happy as Sofyan in a GT-R Nismo!!
For a 150,000$ no car in that price range can beat it
sunny money maybe a Corvette Z06
Except for the Tesla P100D... That thing craps on everything in terms of acceleration.
sunny money Dodge Viper ACR
BMW I8....end discussion. have a nice day
357 HP ? Really... Nice try :)
Nissan is my go to car !! Nissan never let me down I swear
GTR is too overpriced now. It's not value for the money anymore.
Commando Master agree. At the $150k-$200k range, there are many great sports cars to choose from. It's still utterly fantastic but when there's cars like the mcLaren 570s ~the same price, performance and to most better looks/more special - I think it would be hard to justify the nismo if someone is comparing similar cars without already being a big fan of the gtr.
You'd have to be an idiot to pass on a 570S if it were priced exactly the same as this GTR. Most GTRs are cheaper than the McLaren though, and for good reason, just looks alone the GTR loses miserably.
All about economics. Company see demand for this car, so it marks it up. They most likely did it so the next gen GTR will be the same price.
So some research on used McLarens. Most to all the suspension parts have to be replaced at 20,000 miles. And most likely you'll need the whole engine redone as well. These Nissan are like Rolex watches and will last a long time.
GTR loses miserably? GTR is 10 years old versus the current McLaren. It took 10 years for the Euro competition to catch up to the GTR. For that reason alone, Godzilla will always be king.
Uploads at 6:00am
Why
I still love ur videos vids
I love the GTR, yeah the ride can be harsh, but it's a grown man car. I get compliments everywhere I go. It definitely turns heads everywhere
I think I'll get one.. test drove it and loved it
16:16 I'll have what he's having
Godzilla looking beautiful already
150k for a Nurburgring 7:08 race car,worth it.
The GTR and NSX just remind me of Gran Turismo in the best possible way. The NSX is my dream car
I think it’s too pricey. You can get a 2014 GTR. Add maybe 10k or more in mods and you’ll have more HP than the 2017 model, and a lot more than certain competitors in this segment
Victor C. I agree
Cant compare modifying a car yourself , than engineer building a Nismo in Japan
GTR has the sexiest rear view with those rounded lights!
Gtr is best car
That motor looks incredible.
That door doesn’t have a good thunk.
djbk4lyf92 weight reduction
A good thunk is on the top of my priority list when buying a car

A-n-n-d try to keep the Hellcat from swapping ends . :)
Blame business costs in Japan big Government . In Japan , it cost 18,100,000 yen
Everyone seems to forget that the GTR was, is and will always be a car that can be daily driven.
"Still fast for how old it is" what the hell are you talking about it's a 2017?
Josiah Larocque As in the terms of technology, it's an old engine and transmission design
Josiah Larocque that’s what i’m saying
Congrats redline 4 ur 300K subs achievement; keep growing on !!!
your pants way to tight
bend over just how you like it
What did you expect he is gay.
Too*
Best redline video I've ever seen
when will you review the new NSX?
He said in the video that he'll be getting it next week.
I think it sounds amazing, non-traditional but still pretty sick
for that money 911 turbo. Still looks like an 80-90,000 dollar car
guard3 911 Turbo? A 911 Turbo is almost over 200K with options. So no, the GT-R is the bargain compared to 911.
Who's adding options silly. Rather wing a "Broke dick" base 911 turbo than this slovenly put together car.
gaurd3 dude...people don't buy supercars without options. And you come across as a huge fucking fanboy. Get over yourself man
To proclaim such an asinine statement about base super cars speaks volumes about your intellect. The only fanboi is you. This Frankenstein of assorted ideas and influences from lower Nissan models is a waste of money considering the price bracket.
Nissan Skyline 150,000 in uk,
LMAO! This guys other reviews are so professional- the reaction in this car was amazing.
For the price I rather get a 2018 Lexus LC500 AND a 2018 Camaro ZL1. This thing is WAY overpriced.
If I had the car one day I would always drive it with a smile on my face
Stop calling it Godzilla God dammit. That's reserved for the R32 GTR its tolerated for the R33 and R34. The R35 is more related to the FM platform than the Skyline.
Josh Taylor it's still a GTR you can still call it Godzilla
It's still hold the R3X and GTR badges.
the Nissan skylines earned the name Godzilla for the nismo in 89 I think 🤔
Josh Taylor my bad it was the r32 that had earned the name Godzilla name in 1989
Proof Skyline owners are complete douches. Skylines are overrated. They only hold novelty in the USA because everywhere else has them.
Finally. The car review I've been waiting for. Hopefully you can bring us a review on a (charger) hellcat or demon in the future.
You didn't see the Hellcat Widebody in the background? That's coming later this month ;)
The price should be 80k max.
you're kidding, there's no other car that even comes close to the GTR nismo anywhere within that range
Cali Kali That is stupid, kid. The GT-R price is fair. There is nothing that comes to the GT-R's performance spec even if its over 100K. Everything with in GT-R's performance tier is well over 200K.

Just laying out some facts, if you look at nurburgring times the nismo GTR is 8th on the list beating out many "super cars" priced well above it. has nothing to do with the brand, i have my qualms with nissan
You can get a 2009 GT-R for 50k
I think the GTR will always be the "every day" design. Its just the way Nissan does things
This car eats nsx.
Nah have u watch super gt..? But for sure gtr and nsx will easily eat other supercar..
it doesn't tho. not from a dig or a roll (yes im talking about the nismo)
I LOVEEEE Sofyan's reactions to fast cars LOL
IS THIS "GUY" 4 REAL......
WHAT HE'S SAYIN.....ITS SOOOOOO SLOW.......ITS "TOO" OBVIOUS" HE HAS NO SKILLS......!!!
HE DOESN'T EVEN LIKE " THA CARS THAT GO BOOM"...!!
Al Richmond Kid how old are you
I've never understood when people say you lose track of steering wheel mounted paddle shifters. If your hands are at 9 and 3 where they should be, it makes it even easier to shift gears through turns.
I think your wrong about the looks feminine boy
R R 😂😂😂
I loved your reaction when you did the launch lol!
