don't get me wrong, bang for buck, there's nothing on the planet that comes close.........where else in the world will you find the same technology which results in unsurpassed handling, acceleration and braking for $160K
I just can't escape the fact that when I first saw it side by side with the 34GTR, it looked like a 300ZX tank...........and to think that when the 34GTR was first introduced, the media and even some folk at Nissan thought it was ugly, how tastes have changed.
I know the R8 would not come close in the performance stakes and it is twice the cost but it's no snail by any means of the imagination and I personally like the European styling and the V10 rumble.....................by practical means, you have to remember that we live in Adelaide with an over eager police force and no drag strip, so the R35 would soon lose it's appeal very quickly on our 50 & 40 kph roads as opposed to the R8 which as I displayed in post 27, those 2 features alone would keep the interest going for a long time (in this town anyway). I think that if I lived in Europe, I would possible favour the R35.
