No, but people expect that when they spend this kind of money - especially on a semi-sensible/practical car like the GT-R which is surely the only car for most of its owners. The car is in desperate need of an overhaul, and the facelift just doesn't cut it.
"Did you see how fast this thing was?" No actually, we didn't. You drove it at a snail's pace on 2 lane roads around your business park. Another extremely boring review of a super car from autoguide. Congrats guys, you're on a roll. Pretty soon the dislikes will be more than the likes.
DaveBibbs so youre against gay people and people from other countrys? truly sad. im not going to say offensive shit, cus youre obviously very young. have a great evening
I stopped listening to this guy as soon as he said "the GTR dosth not thsound good". Like are you death or something? The GTR in high RPM sounds GODLY.
SERIOUSLY?!?! Lane departure warning? Blind side monitoring? Active or adaptive cruise control?? This is a GTR, not a Prius. Next, he'll be bitchng that it doesn't come with a tampon dispenser.
so just because it doesn't have all those safety nannies you can't live with or use daily, if you honestly need all that stuff u should not consider driving, maybe that's too extreme for Me to say however you should not buy this car if you need drive assist technology.
Arlind Sadikaj have those features on my Benz and Acura however they are on the very bottom of the list in both priorities and needs. This guy needs to be reviewing used Kcars and Yugos.
I can't wait to get a GTR for myself! Although I will pick up a used one, it's still like one of those achievements you aim to do for years and years and feel like you just won the big playoff when you get it! :)
I thumbed down your review because its poorly articulated. Lack of cruise control, adaptive blind spot warning and lane assist - the car isn't a minivan or S class, where creature comfort is paramount. Its suppose to be a weapon. If you're buying a gtr for its amenities then you're missing the point. Had you mentioned its ages, ever increasing price and looks, those are plausible faults.
Bahamuttiamat Wait until this first class moron finds out that many owners even turn off all the safety nannies... intentionally. And that the Porsche GT2 which is over $240k has no stereo.
If u want to be true driver, don't depend on the fancy features. Those feature are for women with no sense of directions. I own a 2009 R35 and it drives and parks fine without any assistance. PS: if u depend on a camera or sensor to park, go back to driving school
The "big 3" Japanese brands are Toyota, Nissan, and Honda. Toyota's most recent super car, the LFA, was placed as a premium Lexus. Hondas NSX was placed as a premium Acura. Now Nissan should make the GTR either a Infiniti, or give it a higher quality interior.
My father and I have been a Chevrolet dealer since 1953. For years the Corvette was the last word in High Performance two seaters. This Nissan has taken over the game. Not only does it out handle the Vette. It's more comfortable, it will endure way past 200k miles, Much more dependable, Lighter. Till the Corvette moves the motor behind the driver they will remain a death machine. As a Nissan master tech I can tell you the Nissan is the best designed mass produced, affordable vehicle on the planet.
craig doss Actually I don't want his job. He just drives them for a few hours and writes about them for for a few days which isn't that fascinating. I was a valet and drove plenty of nice cars when I was in college but I didn't want to be driving someone elses car all my life. I work hard so I can own dream cars and actually experience them... I have only owned German cars, Benz and Porsche, but have lots of respect for the GTR and Vettes.
Dude, while i appreciate your reviews and have no issues with your lisp - you have got to STOP swiveling and swaying around when you're standing and speaking to the camera.
So at this point Ive owned a 2015 GTR, 2017 Turbo S, and a GT3 as far as cars in this class. I sold my GTR in 2016 and bought a turbo S but it was lack luster when it came to feeling like I was in a race type car a bit too tame and refined for me which led me to trade to the GT3. Ive now had the GT3 for a few months and overall I love it wayyy more than the turbo S. No its not as fast in a straight line but on the track I just felt more like it was a pure race ready car. Oddly enough even though I know the GTR has its down sides such as weight. Im now trading my GT3 for a 2017 GTR. The car just has an X factor to it. As far as technology the Turbo S and the GT3 were actually worse than my 2015 GTR. The 2017 Turbo S was a bit better with the new technology but honestly nothing that great. After driving all of the I still think the GTR is superior with technology. Obviously porsche is no contest when it comes to tracking the car but for a visceral experience I just like the GTR more.
Because it doesn't have carbon ceramic brakes makes it a point to bring up, but I highly doubt this reviewer has even gotten close to pushing this car enough to cause it to fade.
I must be one of the few (former) GTR owners that never touched the cruise control and or cared about these gizmos during the 3 years I owned my 2014 Black Edition white pearl w/ FBO/e85 while living in CO and later in CA where I had to sell it.
And no if you buy a car like this or a corvette or an r8 or a Porsche or camaro or any descent fast car the point is to enjoy the ride people who actually like cars don't want all that assist crap me not even speed control I can appreciate that this car doesn't have any assists
I liked the video. Lots of great information! Maybe a little critical but that's what you do, then we decide if you're right or not. Excellent. Keep up the good work!
never knew it didn't have cruise control. not many reviews out there mention that, it's good to know if someone wants this as a daily driver. but nonetheless, it wasn't designed to be like that, its a race car made legal on roads. good points and good review. could've been better but still good
You can always tell when someone has a bias. If you don't like it, don't buy it. If you like it, buy it. No one can tell you what YOU like. You tell THEM!
He just whines about no adaptive cruise control or apple car play. No one buys a sports car for that, they just want a car that can go from 0-60 in under three seconds. That's it
Nothing in this review told me what I wanted to know about the GT-R. I mean it would be nice to see the car actually being driven the way it's meant to be! Exhaust clip is pretty standard also
Those technologies don't matter in the gtr when you buy a gtr you buy it for the track it is daily drivable but is a racecar. It was made for people who love driving and isn't for the faint of heart
Love the car, but the lisp, body movement, and uninspired review was distracting. I thought Sam would've come along farther than he has in this amount of time.
I can handle his lisp and excessive body movements, but he kept comparing it to the Huracan and Mclaren?? Idiotic. Compare to a similar price range. Plus he said "Z06" and "Nissan" weird.
dude they are trying to keep the price down, the downfalls you give it against cars that are 100k plus more are silly, they are by far worth the price they have been given, just the engine is worth a good handful of money
the Fanboymobile finally got a non-plastic-fantastic-370z based interior. hmm, but with the Z06 out for 80K and it beat the 175K nismo and it looks, sounds, and drives more like an exotic than the GTR ever will be... hmm... i think its clear the Z06 is a better choice. plus you get a better interior.
Everytime he says nissan its like im getting slapped in the face its shocking. He talks about the cars handling characteristic as if he is a great driver but in the vid and all the other vids he drives it like a lexus ls owner. Makes this review almost a waist. Want to hear and watch someone with more credible credentials reviewing a car so i can get a honest opinion then just any avg joe. If thats the case im a avg joe whats makes my review of a crazy sports car any credible
Who buys a car just for the technology? Sure it helps, but c'mon you get the car because of the raw feel and power, and extraordinary looks, plus if you really love a car, you'll look past it's flaws.
plus say they add all those fancy options, all its gonna do is raise that price and the weight even more then people are gonna complain about those to downsides
dude i want to find out how this is vs the 2016s . why does no1 ever talk about this except how its slightly damped differently. insight would be nice(performance wise).
How do we know its a good car, becuz it always come with bunch of fans and double amount of haters come along, still a benchmark after 10yrs, long live the King Godzilla.
The thing is when the GTR was 60,000 it could be easily forgiven for its shortcomings. At 115,000, the 2017 Porsche Carrera 911S costs less and just wiped the floor with the Nissan at Laguna Seca on Motortrends best drivers car comparo. For the first time ever, the 911 is the bargain and it just slayed Godzilla!. I know some are going to say... well it has been out since 2009 and that is precisely my point in 2009 it pushed the envelope and maybe it should have been worth a bit more. But in 2017 it is finishing behind a lot of cars and maybe should be priced a lot less.
dude, nobody buys a gtr for hi tech gizmos and adaptive cruise control. You're clearly missing the point
Viren S well that's what it has become, even though a lot of us may not like it, it's what makes Nissan money. They gotta make money to survive.
True, but considering that 99% of your driving will be done in normal day to day conditions rather than on highways or tracks, they're nice to have.
Viren S this is most stupid review! He's going to brag about how it doesn't have Gizmos when the car is a driver's car!
Christopher Singh exactly
No, but people expect that when they spend this kind of money - especially on a semi-sensible/practical car like the GT-R which is surely the only car for most of its owners. The car is in desperate need of an overhaul, and the facelift just doesn't cut it.

These types of cars are waaay out of their league. They're better off sticking to economic non-performance oriented vehicles
***** mean...but FUNNY!!! HAHAHAHA!!!
Christopher Walken you r right I hate it when I see a tough car introduce by a nerd and snoppy accent
35mp 😂😂😂
They always give rave reviews to Kia and Hyundai because they are very easy to park and back out of parking spots.
why is Milhouse reviewing Godzilla
LMFAO!
hahahaah
Everythings coming up Milhouse!!!
Funniest comment I've read all day. Bravo to you sir
hostilityy W
His lisp and body movements made me purchase a GTR
jimmyf1312 this dude was born when someone played a flute over a wicker basket.
XD
Why does he wiggle his unusually long neck all the time. I feel like he is flirting with me.
OnLinE xD ah I see his flirting worked on someone! I'm sorry I insulted your boyfriend.
DaveBibbs that was gold 👌🏼
.
OnLinE xD is this even English? Can anyone help translate please?
DaveBibbs so youre against gay people and people from other countrys? truly sad. im not going to say offensive shit, cus youre obviously very young. have a great evening
I stopped listening to this guy as soon as he said "the GTR dosth not thsound good". Like are you death or something? The GTR in high RPM sounds GODLY.
Sirens deaf, not death. ijs, please don't hurt me 😇
who is this guy? worst reviewer in history. I wish I could get my 6:56 time back.
Almighty Keys funniest comment ever man I wish I can have my 6:56 time back.
I like the GTR but not this video
SERIOUSLY?!?! Lane departure warning? Blind side monitoring? Active or adaptive cruise control?? This is a GTR, not a Prius. Next, he'll be bitchng that it doesn't come with a tampon dispenser.
so just because it doesn't have all those safety nannies you can't live with or use daily, if you honestly need all that stuff u should not consider driving, maybe that's too extreme for Me to say however you should not buy this car if you need drive assist technology.
If he wants driver assits, he'd better get a compact, not a GT-R.
yeah I don't care about adaptive cruise control or smart phone integration!
Arlind Sadikaj have those features on my Benz and Acura however they are on the very bottom of the list in both priorities and needs. This guy needs to be reviewing used Kcars and Yugos.
I feel like he's trying to say S words on purpose.
Russian5 he has short tongue.. i noticed. Short tongue makes that sound naturally
I can't wait to get a GTR for myself! Although I will pick up a used one, it's still like one of those achievements you aim to do for years and years and feel like you just won the big playoff when you get it! :)
I thumbed down your review because its poorly articulated.

"What year are we in neeesan"
if you close your eyes you would swear you are listening to Mike Tyson reviewing this car.
Thumbs down to the reviewer
Say "Neee-Saahhn" one more time! One more time! I dare you! I double dare you!
If u want to be true driver, don't depend on the fancy features. Those feature are for women with no sense of directions.
I own a 2009 R35 and it drives and parks fine without any assistance.
PS: if u depend on a camera or sensor to park, go back to driving school
No, nobody needs lane departure warning, forward collision warning, or adaptive cruise control. If you do, you shouldn't be licensed to drive.
stop discriminating against someone's voice. Standing in front of a camera takes a lot of guts. I don't see you doing it.
conceptcs it does take courage
The "big 3" Japanese brands are Toyota, Nissan, and Honda. Toyota's most recent super car, the LFA, was placed as a premium Lexus. Hondas NSX was placed as a premium Acura. Now Nissan should make the GTR either a Infiniti, or give it a higher quality interior.
Stop lisping.
That combined with his bad hair cut and messy beard = No no no
you mean listhing?
I'm pretty sure he doesn't have a say in whether he is lisping or not. Be sensitive.
ARentz07 Then he shouldn't be a video journalist. Don't tell me to be sensitive. The only sensitive part of me is the head of my dick.
***** My troll detection sensor is beeping.
"Did you see how fast it was""
No, idiot. You didn't show it to us
Blue with black wheels and cream interior is a killer combination.
My father and I have been a Chevrolet dealer since 1953. For years the Corvette was the last word in High Performance two seaters. This Nissan has taken over the game. Not only does it out handle the Vette. It's more comfortable, it will endure way past 200k miles, Much more dependable, Lighter. Till the Corvette moves the motor behind the driver they will remain a death machine. As a Nissan master tech I can tell you the Nissan is the best designed mass produced, affordable vehicle on the planet.
The blue color on the GTR looks so good.
"Did you see how fast this thing was?" Nope! You didn't show it anywhere or even told us it's 0-60 speed...
I like that it doesn't have the monitoring and all that. Feels like you're more in control with the car and a better driving experience
swear to god this guy sounds like donald duck lmao
86wish nah Sylvester the cat
You all may talk about Sami's lisp but just remember he has the job that most of you all want.
craig doss Actually I don't want his job. He just drives them for a few hours and writes about them for for a few days which isn't that fascinating. I was a valet and drove plenty of nice cars when I was in college but I didn't want to be driving someone elses car all my life. I work hard so I can own dream cars and actually experience them... I have only owned German cars, Benz and Porsche, but have lots of respect for the GTR and Vettes.
That is my favorite interior and exterior color! On the same car, I need it now!!
You must be Canadian as you correctly pronounced Z as zed not zee and the road sign was in meters not feet. Keep up the great work!
Dude, while i appreciate your reviews and have no issues with your lisp - you have got to STOP swiveling and swaying around when you're standing and speaking to the camera.

U really have a nice story, lots of people just talk positive/negative without actually owning the cars, u are different, sure end user true review!
This car looks really good. It's pretty much my dream car
"would ya look at that"..."im mean really just look at it" ..."sometimes you just gotta look it"..you know
Because it doesn't have carbon ceramic brakes makes it a point to bring up, but I highly doubt this reviewer has even gotten close to pushing this car enough to cause it to fade.

Imirish 21 Well said. In tests they are always turning off all of the nannies. This guy is a first class moron.
I liked the video. Lots of great information! Maybe a little critical but that's what you do, then we decide if you're right or not. Excellent. Keep up the good work!
for me, GTR is perfect. I will be grateful to have this car.
never knew it didn't have cruise control. not many reviews out there mention that, it's good to know if someone wants this as a daily driver. but nonetheless, it wasn't designed to be like that, its a race car made legal on roads. good points and good review. could've been better but still good
The way this dude moves when he talks is so funny
Emmanuel Gomez savage
it was supercar killer before 991 turbo ,gt3 and hurracan was launched
I don't care about his lisp and his accent. His reviews and points are better than some whiny enthusiast wannabees.
You can always tell when someone has a bias. If you don't like it, don't buy it. If you like it, buy it. No one can tell you what YOU like. You tell THEM!
Lol I’m walking in the Velodrome track as I watched this, and there he is at the end in the parking lot! Cool vid, thanks.
He just whines about no adaptive cruise control or apple car play. No one buys a sports car for that, they just want a car that can go from 0-60 in under three seconds. That's it
I wish I had 4 thumbs,
so I could give this reviewer 4 thumbs down!
This dude whistles his S
SiD TheKid my old account
*cough* 2.7 seconds, not 3 seconds *cough*
This is the car i want when my TH-cam channel grows enough.....
fool! how are you going to compare a gtr to a huracan and the other exotic vics! the price difference is huge!
Nothing in this review told me what I wanted to know about the GT-R. I mean it would be nice to see the car actually being driven the way it's meant to be! Exhaust clip is pretty standard also
yup only if he can stop wiggling his ass while he's talking its so distracting
y is he hating on the GT-R its a great car!!!!!!!!
Those technologies don't matter in the gtr when you buy a gtr you buy it for the track it is daily drivable but is a racecar. It was made for people who love driving and isn't for the faint of heart
This car would be a complete beast if that paddle shift had been removed and replaced by a stick.
"Raised the bar for performance vehicles" Is he forgetting the Supra was already around at that time?
Thank god it doesn’t have any babysitter tech. Looking to get one in this year because of this fact
Love the car, but the lisp, body movement, and uninspired review was distracting. I thought Sam would've come along farther than he has in this amount of time.
I can handle his lisp and excessive body movements, but he kept comparing it to the Huracan and Mclaren?? Idiotic.
Compare to a similar price range. Plus he said "Z06" and "Nissan" weird.
dude they are trying to keep the price down, the downfalls you give it against cars that are 100k plus more are silly, they are by far worth the price they have been given, just the engine is worth a good handful of money
the Fanboymobile finally got a non-plastic-fantastic-370z based interior. hmm, but with the Z06 out for 80K and it beat the 175K nismo and it looks, sounds, and drives more like an exotic than the GTR ever will be... hmm... i think its clear the Z06 is a better choice. plus you get a better interior.
I don't think the Nismo cost 175k dude you literally jumped the price up by 25k lmao and the base GTR competes with the Z06 and it's 110k
Carl Manney 2017 GTR nismo... cost 175K buddy. and all that was done is they added weight and made it more livable.
justin bouche You sound like a Z06 fanboy lmao!! Well a Jaguar F type SVR shits all over a Z06 and sounds way better
i was just using facts bud, the price of the 17 nismo is 175K... what else do you want me to say O_O
No you talked about performance and shit too like
a fanboy
Take care of this mans Dan lisp
Everytime he says nissan its like im getting slapped in the face its shocking. He talks about the cars handling characteristic as if he is a great driver but in the vid and all the other vids he drives it like a lexus ls owner. Makes this review almost a waist. Want to hear and watch someone with more credible credentials reviewing a car so i can get a honest opinion then just any avg joe. If thats the case im a avg joe whats makes my review of a crazy sports car any credible
He should advertise Mr. Garrisons Gyro Vehicle from South Park lmao
Looks like he's trying to mate with me while preforming a ritual dance
Please make a 5 seater we will instantly get one if there was five seats 🙏
I know for sure that the older versions are 5-seaters, although they might have been 4-seaters too, never really paid attention to that.
who will win? porche panamera turbo or the Nissan GTR 2017 (or the 2018)
He got me wanting to buy one....lol
is the nissan gtr realy faster than the new audi r8 + or the new bmw m6 I don't think so or is it ?
No blind spot monitoring? What is this 1996?? How's the driver supposed to safely change lanes?
You won't be needing Android Auto when you're doing 310 on desert roads and driving up winding mountain paths.
Please no more of his voice reviewing Nissan vehicles! Give him a plane or a space shuttle to review while sending him to Saturn.
Accept when your going about 150mph the hood flys off 😂😂😂 still my favorite car and will be my dream car
oh God. only a matter of time before the gtr fanboys appear 😒🙄
Guys stop hating on the guy so much jeez
That blue color... It's beautiful!!
Who buys a car just for the technology? Sure it helps, but c'mon you get the car because of the raw feel and power, and extraordinary looks, plus if you really love a car, you'll look past it's flaws.
This dude is only focusing on the tech, not the driving. Get a host who actually likes cars.
plus say they add all those fancy options, all its gonna do is raise that price and the weight even more then people are gonna complain about those to downsides
Was this filmed in Milton Ontario???
As a daily driving gt, having quieter sound is better
dude i want to find out how this is vs the 2016s . why does no1 ever talk about this except how its slightly damped differently. insight would be nice(performance wise).
The zo6 doesn't have a noticeable supercharger but the car it self sounds great most likely because it has a v8
Next year we will work on the Nissan GTRs Horsepower and its launch
good job
you're point of view is very good
thith thupercharger ith not ath good ath the audi or mclaren but i think thath nethethary
xtremesoccer909 😂
xtremesoccer909 dead!!😂😂😂
who else here watches this channel purely for the love of cars while trying their best to endure the hosts
I'm in love with this spec
dude that's why u have the nismo for the track this gtr u can use for a daily car if u want a gtr for racing check out the nismo .
How do we know its a good car, becuz it always come with bunch of fans and double amount of haters come along, still a benchmark after 10yrs, long live the King Godzilla.
Really want this car :( someday
The thing is when the GTR was 60,000 it could be easily forgiven for its shortcomings. At 115,000, the 2017 Porsche Carrera 911S costs less and just wiped the floor with the Nissan at Laguna Seca on Motortrends best drivers car comparo.

But in 2017 it is finishing behind a lot of cars and maybe should be priced a lot less.
Why does the seat on his right look so sad and ghost like at 5:12.?
it's Sammy sprinkler from the benchwarmers. I knew i would find him someday
I just don't understand why is he Dancing while standing or explaining something while standing
Man up dude!
If you want a hot chic buy a Porsche - if you want a bombshell buy a GTR
I say if all the GTR cost 25k I bet every hater in here would own one lol
