- Regular cars crest 100k miles all the time, it's not even a big deal. But how often do supercars surpass 100k miles? This GT-R is the highest mileage example of an R35 that I've ever seen, by far. On this episode of EatSleepDrive, we see just how well Godzilla is wearing after driving more than half way between the earth and the moon.

I know I've teased this high-mileage GT-R before, and I'm so glad to finally get this video out for you guys! Huge props to the owner. He has owned it since new and this is his daily driver. #goals
20k is not agression for Duel cluth... it not a automatic...
Very well done! Would love to see a follow up video where the GTR is put on a Dyno to see how the power has held up over time and many miles. I know there's probably not a baseline of that exact car when new, but it'd still be fun to compare against those Dynos from over a decade ago. I'm considering a secondhand GTR so I would definitely tune in!
Cinca0989 I agree. Would love to see how many horsies have escaped the stable since new. Lol
Royalty Exotics in Vegas has a Huracan that has over 100k miles, I think Huston said its twin turbo. You need to go take that thing for a spin ASAP, it runs strong and looks great. Love the GT-R content.
Want to take the Huracan out ?? ..... I'm in canton oh
When i worked at lexus a couple years back i had a gentleman who had put 97,000 miles in two years on his 2015 lexus RCF. I was amazed lol easily the highest mileage one in the country. His response was a classic “ why would i buy a beautiful car like this and not use it and enjoy it?”
Lol damn. Oil change every month!
I call bullshit in that. That's 4100 a month that's over 1000 miles a week
@@6ft7guy Its 100% true. He used it as his Daily. The man Owned Quiet a Few fast food franchises Through out the United states and Used it weekly cross country to Do business and Check on them. Trust Me I wouldnt have believed it either. The man just loved driving
@@6ft7guy did you see the new 2022 civic with over 200k miles within a year
@@TALYJIMMY yup, that’s a perfect example it’s completely possible and honestly happens more than you would think
He reminds me of shaggy haha
didn't really like his performance in the scoob movie :/
didn't help that he wore a green shirt and khaki pants lmao
Haha Haha he's definitely rocking Shaggy's attire and hairstyle
at first I thought you meant the RnB singer "it wasn't me" shaggy I was like wtf 😂
He definitely Deserves some [scooby snacks] for this review, I mean thumbs up 👍
does the owner have sandpaper for fingers? 140k miles or not, when you don't give a shit at all about the condition of your car, this interior is the result.
I got in a 2009 for the first time a couple weeks ago and was shocked at the sad condition of the interior in that one as well. I think people are probably rough on them, but the early years have a noticably cheaper feeling interior than my 13. Many of the switches and trim pieces are different. I think they improved it yet again in 17.
Wedding ring maybe? That’s the only thing I can think of
definitely a matter of upkeep, but its something seen in multiple models, especially the 350z. I think more of it boils down to nissan being cheap
Girlfriend nails...I had the same problem before I traded in my girlfriend and noticed the problem decreased.
I’ve had 2 GTRs and the material around the touch controls is extremely delicate, & itll come off with a rub of a finger (feels like a very thin layer of play dough is the best way I could describe it 😂)
Bruh was the dude eating the paddle shifters ? Idk how you manage to do that
Frrr
Fingernails
Right, He was downshifting Hard!
nah its real leather, not synthetic. Leather tends to fade away the more u use it LOL. It would be funny if he ate it LMFAO
Cheap rubber material.
Thank you so much for keeping it real man. What a lot of first time buyers fail to recognize is that the Nissan GT-R costs supercar money for a reason. A lower-end supercar price tag with supercar performance has supercar repair/maintenance costs. $20,000 transmission swaps. 500+ horsepower.
This isn’t your 300 hp Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, Subaru Impreza WRX STi, or Honda Civic Type R with economy car roots and repair bills. You want the ability to hunt down or keep up with BMW M5’s, Merc AMG’s, and Porsche 911’s on the track/highway? Then you gotta pay the troll toll.
Have you ever owned an evo? Because they are not cheap at all lol. So dont know what you're talking about when u say an evo has economy car roots. Yes it's cheaper to replace a trans than a gtr but you cant say an evo is cheap at all... also I've seen many evos keep up at the track with much more expensive cars. I mean theres a video of an evo 9 keeping up and even beating a lambo at the track with millions of views.
@@jesusangeles152 the evo is an awd turbo lancer...which is an economy car. Just like the STi is a turbo impreza. The GTR is not an upgraded economy car like the Evo and STi. That being said I would never buy a GTR and I actually own an Evo 2. But yes a built Evo is more than capable of hunting more expensive sports cars and supercars. Search English Racing, they build some of the fastest Evo's in the country.
The transmissions can be rebuilt (under 10k) for much less and once rebuilt, can handle more power.
100k is hardly super car pricing anymore.. This car was owned by someone who clearly doesn't respect the car
@@JetCityHooligan I know who english racing is. I myself own a fully built evo x. But yeah now i know what was meant by economy based lol. I totally forgot the Lancers were even a thing lol.
Geez it blows my mind how a lot of people dont give a shit about their car’s interior
Lol ikr if its a street car the interior condition is really important
@@dariovite7501 Lol not really. I would happily daily something with a stripped out interior as long as the driving experience is exciting.
Marco van Hilst You wouldn’t say that after two years in that same car stuck in traffic. Trust me
I can’t have a dust in the inside I won’t be able to sleep if my car is dusty
I'm Rick James bitch! Fu€k your couch!
Nissan with Transmission Issues??
NOO WAAYYYY 🤯🤯
lmao 😂😅
Interestingly enough it's made by BorgWarner. But still, yeah.....😂
what do you expect with that power?
Well all the power and if you race a lot, any transmission or engine will wear out i believe.
@@campkira He's knocking Nissan as a whole, obviously the GTR uses a DCT but Nissan overall has shitty transmissions plagued with issues in majority of their lineup
Sensor..
Waited the whole video for Scooby Doo to pop into the video I’m disappointed
LMAO outta pocket
I just came by your channel and I'm subscribing! Thank you for not being annoying, yelling at me and being unrealistic. This was such a good "to the point" video. Thank You!
Great video sir.
Hope you keep producing videos like this. ❤
This is the best GT-R video I’ve seen, very informative 🤔👌
Thank you!
This man has one of the most unique and best car channels on youtube and deserves wayyy more subs and views. Show support!
awesome video, thanks for covering this. Always wondered how these car held up to daily duty.
Thanks for watching!
is your friend Freddy Kruger ?
Lmao
Forreal though.. looks like he been chewing threw the interior jeeze
Love this review , makes me want to find a high mile one to purchase 😁
It’s awesome to see someone actually driving and enjoying their GTR
enjoying? 140k miles on original brake rotors LOL thats not enjoying a super car
Works on the car himself, but doesn't bother taking half an hour and replacing a 2 dollar cover for the window switches?
heh..youd think
Or he could at least paint it himself
Thanks for the video. Very relevant and informative. Keep it up!
Thank you!
I had a 370z with 220k miles on it and when i sold it it was still as good as the day i bought it. Im sure the gtr has the same parts like alternator, water pump, and etc as the 370z. It's a nissan reliability. As long as you dont mod the hell out of it didnt drive like a mad man and change the oil on time it should run forever.
Yeah but that transmission garbage. Also i doubt it has the same water pump. These things need some major cooling. They are supercars for god sake
How much u sold ur 370z ?? damn 220k ? mine at 141k probably gonna get a new car in a year or 2
these GTR's cost 120k now. they have no problems selling so im sure their transmission are just fine.
That gtr needs love😫
Its a nissan, it'll be be fine lol
He drove it like he should have.
True. I have a 5th Gen maxima. I baby that car. I will make a video of it.
Nice to see Shaggy has a love for JDM
This is a very interesting video. Thanks for posting it!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great content, thank you
Still turns heads... love it and I love mine. 55k miles
The GT-R is meant to be a daily...
Awesome video Shaggy !
The car looks amazing for it's age and mileage. Definitely worth it's weight in gold. I'd buy it😜
"It sounds like a vacuum cleaner." Lol I completely agree, the worst part of a GTR. They are so muter stock. I'm definitely glad I got an exhaust on mine recently. Great video! Good points, like bringing up the rwd bias (I can attest to that). Super interesting to hear about a very high mileage GTR
Read your comment same time he said it lol
The Interior wear and tear on this car is extreme, even for daily driven Nissan standards. The inside of that car has been Thanos snapped.
You exaggeration is extreme, the interior is not bad at all.
Yes it’s pretty awful. I have a Volvo S60 that has 115k on the clock. It’s less than this car and Volvo might have better interior quality but it’s no where near the wear this car has
Snilsson 2011-2015 Volvo S60s are gold I got a T6 myself
Chad L It’s a decent commuter car for the money for sure!
Exactly my versa has 150k miles on it and its interior is 10 times cleaner than this
What does it means Nissan coming through? I have Porsche that has tons of paint chipping from rocks, broken switches and torn carpet ... Well I guess Porsche quality showing through 😅🤣😂.
i have a 62k mile 2002 gt2 with some pretty gnarly paint chips and rock chips but nothing more than that. what kind of porsche do you have? never heard of carpet issues lol
I ve the Cayenne... The damage is on the driver side and it's below the driver seat.. It seems glued together at the corner..
SC 03 huh. odd, never heard of such a defect before. wouldn’t even bother to fix i’m sure porsche would want a boatload to replace 🤣.
That was super interesting! Can't believe how little has gone wrong with it in 140k mi!
I believe easy 140K miles and perfect run of course because is a GTR if was European sports cars forget their are piece garbage. Search a BMW's Audi's porches with 40K miles and you will find those but not on the roads but in the junk parking lot
This Nissan is what Nissan use to be before Renault: sporty and reliable. Thankfully Nissan kept Renault hands far far away when designing this. That transmission sensor is an issue though.
Uhh did you watch the video? The transmission went crap. That's not little.
It what happens when you leave the car stock !
the tranny died and the interior is complete dogshit- looks absolutely terrible
Seems like Shaggy traded the Mystery Machine for a GTR.
Nice vid,good info!
Super impressive. I'd have expected the interior to hold up better, but mechanically it's hard to expect more from a car like this.
Great vid! I legit thought you bought this at first.
Your not the only one. I am pretty close behind you with a 2013 at 130+ and it’s my daily driver. I also have the dent chips in the same area. I am in the Army and have driven it from Georgia, Missouri, Tennessee, to Texas.
if i ever bought a high mileage R35 i want to see paper work of trans rebuild or upgrade lol
Yeah the 09-2010 R35's have the shittiest transmissions.
@@YaseenAli-zn9ej yes, it's very jerky when change gears, god.....
I love the induction sound on the GT-R
There is another GTR roaming around that 150k+ miles.
Changing a 20k$ transmission instead of a 45$ tsb clips 🤦🏻♂️
I just did that upgrade myself and it wasnt that hard
Right like imagine being an official dealer for the manufacturer with all the diagrams and the specialty tools and theyre just like "yeahhhh we're not gonna troubleshoot just throw a new one in" That a joke tbh haha
What is the first smart thing I should do when I get mine? It's going to be a 12 or 13 model
@@TinoushGTR do all the fluids and send a sample of the engine oil off to a lab for analysis they can really tell you if the engine has been taken care of. That extra work is definitely worth it for this kind of car.
@@chanman1197 How would that work if the Seller did an new oil change? You wouldnt find anything in the oil since its new?
@@ChuukeseStink Something would still come up if the engine isn't taken care of.
5,000 degrees LoL this was an epic video. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Dude, I’m looking to get one, and I’m contemplating if I should still buy a 2009 model. Seeing that this one is over 10 years old and with high mileage, but with well maintenance, it still a badass. And some of the 2009 models I’m looking at nearly have 50k miles on them. Your video certainly answered my question. Thanks for doing this video!!!!
I have a 2014 GTR Track Edition with FBO, E85, and some other mods, just hit 82k miles. Get them maintained, enjoy them, and know the maintenance is super car maintenance. They're killer vehicles.
Early gen models had an aggressive rear differential which also made owners complain about the noise that being said it’s by far one of the best handling gtr for track day use
I ended up with a 2015. Put a bunch of work on it already. Car is pushing 1000 hp, but definitely needs trans upgrade.
@@thaitanium35 that’s seriously impressive, I love the 2009-2012 GTR models I hope one day I would be able to afford one and tune it to around 550 or so HP
Awesome!!! Always thought these would be very useable as semi-daily drivers.
NSX, R8, and the GTR are the most "daily-able" supercars out there.
@@BinisGunsAndGames also 911 Turbo S probably
@@luka_abh The 911 Turbo S is a 'super car'? Then what's the GT3-RS classified as?
@@RandyAugustus a sport car with gnarly engines under six figures price at least until recently.
@@BinisGunsAndGames gtr isn't a super it's a sports however with some minor upgrades waste gate major one trans upgraded/updated turbos or system and boosy controll and a get a tuner to go over it few times not just a basic tune ask them for what you really want lol and boom got a super car lol lowkey my plan save for a few years only need 2 I think but might do 3 years so I can do everything at once and basicky make it like new build it to for all that good shit but I'd have a eco tune and a street and a track/race or like to but I'm a newbie so il end up spending alot including since there engines are so complex
When I rented a GTR-R35, the rental company put a distance limit of 250 km! Best ride in my life.
There's one I've been thinking about renting and has a limit of only 100 miles.
Outstanding review. Very genuine and non bias. I have a 2017 and love it.
you earned a sub. thank you!
i have a lot of those rock chips on the doors, it's mostly caused by driving beside a Semi picking up debris specially when it's raining.
what a respect. sounds like a vacuum cleaner 14:33 i just sign off after that.
Had Shep build my trans and it's been amazing!
With that many miles and no oil leaks really shows Nissan build quality, not many boosted cars with that mileage can say that
I'm hoping to pick up a 2012 next month with only 6k miles on it. This is a good video to let me know i've got plenty of mileage to get out of iit if everything goes right. I'm prayin hard for sure.
2012 is a great year!
Earned a sub.+like! Thank you! Great content 🙂
It comes down to the driver caring. My STI has 40k miles on it at least 75% highway miles, and it looks like it drove off the showroom floor minus a few rock chips I've filled.
Nice video, where is the rest of the race with the ZL-1? How much faster was the camaro than the GT-R? How far is the moon from the earth?
I own a 1993 Nissan Patrol, probably don’t get them in the states. Has over 300k miles on the clock. Original engine (TD42 diesel), never opened. Original paint, no rust or fade. Original trim, apart from the drivers seat (original) starting to get uncomfortable in the foam department, it all still works with no creaks or anything. Car still takes me everywhere I want to go. Don’t underestimate Nissan.
Did I miss it? No timing chain at 100k? Also the exhaust does sound slightly more throaty than stock. Are you sure it doesn’t have a midpipe?
Thnx. for this. I plan on getting a high mileage 08-09 GTR.
Do not get the 08-09, like he said trans issues most likely will pop up and super expensive, save up more and get a 2012.
Yea get a 2012 plus , the early years will end up costing you to the point it may become undrivable
Rock chips on the hood and sides of car are mainly caused by freeway miles.
Agreed. My 86 is chipped to fuck from highway driving.
Paint protection flim is good for that if you got the money
No offense meant here, but I think you're totally off base claiming that the Nissan shines through because of its age. Maybe compared to a Toyota or Honda, but not compared to supercar brands like Ferrari, Lamborghini or McLaren. Have you seen the kind of nonsense that happens on those after just 40k miles? I can gaurentee they would look much worse at 140k miles with the same level of maintenance done
i got a 2004 G sedan and after a buff my homie made that 16 y/o paint shine like new! minor rock chips but it’s held up nicely
Nope not the lambo speaking for the huracans in this case
A full exterior and interior detail and that car is good to go.
Awesome props to the owner
Mine has 220k My GUY!! and of course it still runs like a Champ. I keep up with the maintenance just like it did when I had my 08 Infiniti g37.
Probably the best made video on the R35 and super upfront and honest 🤙🏼
I appreciate that!
I love when people put them to use awesome content...here in fortworth I see this old man always driving his 90s model Ferrari
Love to see a car guy actually use it
Shep’s transmission are rated by tq not hp. Stage 1 is usually good for 700 tq to the wheels, not hp. I have also been told they are conservatively rated.
who fucking cares
@@spencer9352 some people do
I've been looking into the new gr corolla but one of these used makes more sense for me since i like to work on my own cars
I had a 2009 R35 in UK sold it with 159k Miles on the clock still going strong sold it for £24.5k :-( Litchfield imports knew of a higher miler than mine in the UK :-0
The seats for the gtr’s are known to wear so that’s surprising. The trim around the door snd radio are cheap and I have the same issue on my gtr with half the mileage.
which year does the transmission fault? are the newer versions more better on that ?
Shaggy, You're whipped!
do cars need valve clearance checks?
coz bikes seem to need them so frequently (depending on models compared to cars)
Those interior panels shouldn’t be too hard to replace. If it’s been on since new it’s time to remove that paint protection film. Buff the whole car, ceramic coat it, then put more film on the whole front end maybe the whole car.
if owner want to spend money on them... look at how dusty it is... not so much...
Tell him to take off his dam ring 💍!
It’s good to see that Matthew Lillard landed on his feet when the Scooby Do money ran out but someone tell him he doesn’t have to keep wearing the costume. WE ALL KNOW YOU PLAYED SHAGGY IN THE MOVIE MATT.
you almost killed that bunny/squirrel lmao
Cool roads - is that south of Cincy somewhere?
East of Cincinnati actually.
I would reduce the service schedule by half and acquire some more chips and few dents also beat on track where I can, it's just a beater
Im really confused now as till 2:10 you said 2x that is 240k mileage example and from 2:17 you are saying is 140k so what version is correct? 1:08 or 2:17😇
Is the 2009 transmission issue a recall or covered under warranty?
Hey I would really like to know if you can let me know what sensor went wrong with in the transmission I have a GTR and am at 90,000 miles and it went it limp mode
I feel as if the GTR being a "supercar" is kinda odd the r31-34 where upgraded versions of their sedan counterparts but I suppose the 35 was a development on its own this time around but it's funny how we don't expect these cars to last to 140k without major problems... I could understand with cars like the LFA or something but a GTR.. should be reliable.
I'm surprised he interior held up nicely. Nissan's are known for quality interior.
You need to see an optometrist. That interior is beat
Dude needs an exhaust upgrade fr. Kirby Vacuum GTR. >< LOL
And I shed a tear for all the R35S that wont get to see 140k miles
Haven't watched it yet, but based on my 2005 350z that got 285,000 miles before a bad ac fan caused it to over heat and crack a piston, I'd say it probably had been pretty reliable
😂😂😂
I missed it...how many transmissions has it gone through...how many were documented in the owner's manual?
140k or 240k?
I have 72k on my 09 but damn this one has 140k - I feel better now.
This car is for sale on facebook. Cheapest GTR with a clean title in the country.
How much but I think its sold?
I'd love to own one. Itd be like my q50s AWD but with turbos.
It an 80K car but with the performance of a 200K+ car. This is a true performance car.
I can't believe how beat up the gtr was, poor godzilla
$6-7,000 for the transmission issue? That really makes this care more affordable for what it is. Normally the number 1 thing oh your transmission fucks up there is no choice but to replace it with a $20,000 one.
Tell *Wolverine* to retract his claws before touching stuff in the cabin 😳😳
10:45 that left lane hogger is a nightmare
Thats unfortunately why i buy bmws so i can handle them accordingly
Agree twice I ride in a gtr ......I don't know maybe people got bad backs ...it's not that stiff
The cars I drive today held up way better than that gtr , 1996, 1999 and 2001. Interior and exterior plus mechanically
The owner of that GTR still on original rotor, he has bern driving it like a 70hp car thats why!real owner and real review!
Can someone please explain why in the U.S. do they have 'Stop' signs in the middle of nowhere?
I remember in Utah driving with my aunt, and it was flat and you could see nothing for miles. Yet in the middle of nowhere there was this 'Stop' sign, and my aunt would always dutifully stop. Flat road, see for miles, nothing around, no houses or anything, just flat fields, middle of nowhere ... Stop sign.
