- We review and celebrate the R35 Nissan GTR, a car that was in prototype form in 2001 and has had a long 14-year run. The R35 has widely been known for performing well ahead of its time. On the Heels of the Nissan Z Proto we attempt to tell the story of what makes it unique and how it has shaped the future of performance cars. Whether you are a Porsche, BMW, Chevy, or Ford fan there is something in this video you will appreciate. Other cars to consider are Ford GT500, Chevy C8 Corvette, and Porsche 911.

This is not just a car review this is a documentary about a legend
fast and furious legend haha
@@sperlongatours didn’t Jeremy Clarkson get whiplash when he did that? Shows how crazy this car can get ( also I know he is an older guy and not in the best shape but he is a good driver)
@@religionofpeace3244 exactly, its mostly a bunch of dudes regurgitating the same thing about the gtr bc of videogames and the FaF movies. Do they actually know why this car is great? probably not. if anything its a little overrated and their are a lot of other cars that would destroy the past models, the r35 is not though it is a force to be reckoned with.
The GTR is timeless. Truly a masterpiece. I may be biased though haha
@@liamhunter2403 haha same
Godzilla vs. my productivity for the next 30+ minutes.
Lol same
Same
Same here! Haven't seen these guys have that much fun in a car ever. The GTR is a beast of a car.
You are more disciplined than me, I think I am going to have “zoom meetings” till at least noon.
Play at 2x
I just got off of a 10 month deployment in the middle of the ocean with no port visits, and I got to tell you guys, downloading your videos was one of the few things keeping me going. You do phenomenal work, and I deeply appreciate the amount of detail you incorporate into your content. Thanks for putting these videos together!
thanks and respect for your service sire
PEACE🌎
HOWS LIFE IN 2023?!?!
Yes,I ENJOY THIS GUY WHEN HE DOES (PAST TENSE) FOR HIM,BUT CURRENT FOR THE 🌎 TO SEE…MY SECOND VIDEO ON ONE OF MY FAVORE “MACHINES” FACT.INDEED.
YOU KNOW HE JUST HAS THAT VOICE THAT IS JUST SO “INTUITIVE”.
It’s super badass that you were able to FaceTime mr GTR through the cars infotainment
that should be a feature on all R35s
"What does GTR mean to you?"
"My life's work."
Damn, that one hit me. Great video guys.
Word.
Combined with how well he talked about his decisions when implementing upgrades that one indeed hit hard!
Probably Grand Tourismo and the "R" is for their racing.
Means "guitar" to me, i.e. music.
And GT-R R35 is guitars.
@@jmm1174 woooooooosh
I saw a running length of 36 minutes and I already knew I was going to have a great morning
esp if you use your hands right
@@centripetal25 😂😂😂😂
Very rare sighting these days
That's what she said.
I truly believe in 20 years we will look back at the R35 as one of the most revolutionary cars ever made. Great piece, Mark and Jack!
It will be a very valuable car
@@referencetheater1742 for sure, a lot of cars will follow in the design process they did on the r35
Yep. People will finally realize how brilliant this car was.
And it will get overhyped and overpriced like the rest too, which is pathetic
They’ll see and overweight boosted AWD monstrosity with no emotion
Tamura San's interview is such a refreshing look into the thought process of this car. I think being able to see the intention of design from the designers and engineers itself really helps cut through the repetitive stat chasing mentality and shine a light on the personality that the car was given. I'm about as far from a Nissan fan as it gets but the respect I have for the GTR and the team behind it is incalculable.
Fantastic work as always, Mark and Jack.
Yeah. I love nothing about this car. DSG. Heavy. Nissan. The looks. The interior. But as a usable, daily sports car for the rainy PNW... I'm just head over heals for it. I can't really explain it. It's my next car. Saving now.
@@Whatever493 and the tuning potential
I just never get tired of the stoic Japanese demeanor were used to seeing shattering the second they can express the passion for their work. Pride in their work makes the car better ☺️
He has 20 years of experience with this project, and his perspective into the GT-R is another reason on why we should appreciate designers and engineers for the work they do to make the vehicles we drive today.
I’m with you on all points. The GT-R is such an outlier from a manufacturer of stupefyingly boring cars, and it got that way because the engineers were put in charge of its development. Likewise, when it came to presenting the car to the automotive press, Nissan wisely kept their marketing minions muzzled and once again, let the engineers do the talking. Mark and Jack took the cue at the end and let the CAR do the talking.
Its killin me how Mark is standing on something to get head level with Jack 🤣🤣
Does it make me more legit to be on race ramps?
@@savagegeese Only if your cross balance is within tolerance.
thats all I see now
My life will never be the same again
@@savagegeese next time, dig a hole for Jack
The bit at the end where he says "life work" and you can see how proud he is of what he has achieved so far. Priceless.
That part hit me in the feels for some reason
@@Latinblood59 Same here.
Probably because it's so rare to see and hear it these days.
@@Latinblood59 yes, very touching the depth of his response. Very emotional.
Imagine creating something as your manifesto and the world reveres it as a legend. That’s satisfaction I think that transcends financial success.
As an engineer, he must be proud that he created the GT-R. And I think all Japanese car engineers are like that, but Mr. Tamura definitely has so much of an emotional connection to the GT-R, from the way he designed it, to how he programmed it, you name it. We, as consumers, never know how much work it is to put a car together, especially a sports car like this. But listening to Mr. Tamura's words about his work is truly special, and at the end of the day, he should be proud for giving us one of the most best and legendary sports cars to this day.
I still have my 2013 GTR and I will never get rid of it. I have always wanted a GTR and when I finally was able to purchase it I was beside myself. I couldn’t believe I had this icon and legend in my garage. Even in 2022 it still turns heads. I personally met Mr. Tamura and he signed my engine cover.
Mark you are truly the Quentin Tarantino of auto reviews meaning you have the unique ability to marry the emotional connection to the imagery while still letting the plot reveal itself as the story unfolds. Love ya Bro!!!!
This is the best GT-R video on CZcams, bar none.
Idk man I still peep that Paul Walker Gt channel video every once in a while and it gives me the feels. This car was such a game changer when 1st released
The lovely attention to detail is the best thing about this channel.
As someone who is really detailed, I always come back to this channel and you hit the nail right on the head
Also editing, direction, dialogs. 35 minutes and you don't get bored for a second.
@@mattstone8878 Because I'm not close minded and recently he talks about NWO agenda, and I find it interesting.
@@mattstone8878 dunno who he is
Just like the GTR
I don't even really give a shit about the technical aspects, but when you tell a story like you two do and compile the right group of folks to bring context, I stick around. Your content is far better than anything found on cable today and your production quality is not that far behind either.
Touch my body.
He likes it rough
His production quality is better than any automotive show I've ever seen on cable...
I just can not understand why you guys don’t have millions of followers. For me this is the best auto channel in CZcams. Congrats.
Same here, no BS, super high production quality by relatable people
Take a couple of Dramamine and watch an episode of Schmee and one of Supercar Blondie, and you’ll understand the mentality of the most popular car channels: They are designed to appeal to morons. Going by the comments, their audiences seem to be adolescent males who, thankfully, do not yet have a driver’s license. And there are a LOT of this viewer type.
CZcams is owned by Google, and to this vastly wealthy tech giant, the only thing that matters is numbers. Big audiences for CZcams channels mean more eyes on Google-powered screens, and more ad revenue. (I pay $15/month for CZcams Premium and could not imagine sitting through ads.)
Mark and Jack talk far too much and most of what they say would go right over the head of your typical car channel viewer. As is happening to the best communicators, whether they be writers or film makers or CZcams presenters, the race to the bottom by sleazy and transparently phony competitors is making the professionals’ comparatively small audiences less appealing to Google, the publisher. And so like all us motorheads, the Geese are in danger of extinction.
I fear that CZcams’s dim future for quality content will cause our two favorite presenters to turn their considerable talents away from our shared passion. When and if that comes to pass, I won’t need a CZcams Premium account any more. I will not invest my precious time watching Doug Demuro. Instead you’ll find me in my BarcaLounger, reading 20-year-old back issues of Car and Driver.
I don’t get why people still don’t sub to this channel. SG gives u comedy, facts, mechanical aspect, and the most perfect driving aspect review ANYWHERE on CZcams.
I would be annoyed af too if I was him
Bc zero naked boobs.
Thats why.
😛
Dont forget all the little nuances and subtleties he sprinkles in here or there. Im quite surprised by how many little references to old anime and games n things that get meticulously snuck in.
That's because it contains exactly what you said it does. Facts. The popular YT car channels are entertainment and giveaways. Channels like SG and myself that show working on things, factual comparison, mechanical stuff are not paid much attention too. Just how it is lol
I don't get it, either. That's why I not only like, but comment on practically every video SG puts out. That combination of likes and comments is pure gold to their stats. Seriously, who else would do such a deep dive on a car that most car channels reviewed and then forgot about ten years ago? Plus, the video quality is amazing. I had to pause the video to actually do some work. It was a close-up of Marks face, and you could count his eyelashes, the videography was so good. The only other car channel that comes close is Jason Camissa on Hagerty. Think of the budget they have.
TMI for the general population. They want exotics and illegal street shit
My God, Jack! That was a GTR lecture compared to what we usually get from other outlets. What a reporter! You two are unrepeatable combo. Please enjoy your work and carry on.
“It’s my life work”. What an incredible send off at the end of this video with the statement.
I owned a 2017 GTR and you guys put into words everything I felt using it as my daily driver. Excellent video. Yes, you should be getting paid for this!
they get paid by you tube.....
@@harryharry3193 barely
You said owned. Is there a reason you sold it? If it's financial or personal, you don't have to say, just interested in why you dont have it anymore.
This is so f**king impressive. You guys dropped this 👑
I remember being sick and staying home from school when I was 10 and seeing the episode of Top Gear where Jezza was racing the train in Japan. Now I'm 23 and they're still making the same car.
If it ain’t broke
at first in another episode he didn't quite like it. Then, in japan, he understood the car and fell in love with it.
im the same age as you! and yes it's an old car but it's still a thrill to drive!
Porsche has entered the chat
What a pure ending. Tamura-san is a legend.
I love how even after about 14 years people that test cars for a living can be genuinely taken back or even in awe of the brutality of its speed. Both from a start and the way it comes out of corners. The car has held up in a way no car essentially unchanged should not. The subtle changes over its life cycle has kept it viable. What a car. Legend.
This thing is 14 years old and it continues to be my dream car. Nothing else feels like a GT-R, it's got so much character you'd think it's a living, breathing thing.
i agree totaly
Hail Godzilla.....
Same, but I'd prefer an R34 a bit more.
Most people will say it's the exact opposite of a living thing 😄
@@badass6300 r34 is the most overrated gtr ever. The only reason people want one is Paul walker fast and furious
Also sorry to come in again, but I just wanna thank you for doing your due diligence, you are the first auto journalist to actually give them credit for the annual updates, most journalist just b**** about how old the car is like it's a 2005-2019 Nissan frontier as if changes were not made to this car, the horsepower grew significantly for the class, I mean it doesn't get any more credible than this I appreciate your dedication and unbiased review
Exactly. The frontier is a completely different car and honestly trucks don’t evolve that much any ways so terrible to compare that to this which is a passion project that has gotten better every year
-What does GT-R mean to you?
-Life work.... simple answer for you! :)
That ending was just beautiful. I would be very proud to say it is my life’s work. This car changed the sports and supercar landscape forever.
I watched 30 seconds of this and I already know this is going to be amazing.
@Yirlani if you care so much, why are you in the comments
My tip, avoid hallucinogens while the guy from Nissan is talking. You'll never return from that trip, if you don't.
I had a passing glance of the thumbnail and knew it was going to be amazing
@Yirlani ah no mate reverse card doesn't work that way
I knew it will be amazing, without 30 sec of watching, without thumbnail and stuff, because im not the first time on this channel.
😛
Damn that "Life work" at the end hit hard. It's hard to imagine anyone outdoing the Japanese as as far as dedication towards their craft. One of my favorite cars ever built.
+1 and i agree with everything you said.
Well the Italians, Brits and Germans do it. They all take engineering to an even higher level and make even superior cars. Japanese are just more dramatic about the amount of effort they put into things they do, and like to over-exaggerate things a lot. That's why you'll hear their sushi masters say it takes 20 years to learn how to prepare sushi rice, or other ridiculous claims.
@@derbigpr500 when the car was released it was way ahead of it's time was it not? It blew the European cars out of the water. So their claims are justified then, are they not
@@bobbybooshay5854 It is true the GTR blew the competition out of the water in 2007. Now in 2021 I'm not so sure. With every iteration it got more expensive and the cabin has not kept up with the price tag. I love everything about it except the cabin. Some of those buttons just look super low rent, worse than my S2000 which has a period feel to it as well but in a better way imho.
@@derbigpr500 Cringe.
I actually feel your drive was at the best time of the year. These cars love cold dense air. My Gen 2 NSX feels great on winter tires, no slipping around in wet conditions. Nissan should be applauded for investing year after year in incremental improvements. The factory the GT-R is built in also produces the Infiniti Q50. My Infiniti Q50S Hybrid AWD is almost 8 years old and close to 100K miles and it is still great.
Darn it Mr. Goose, what kind of money do you think I have, you do this to me every couple days, last week I decided I'll eventually buy a Durango Hellcat, now I also need a GTR and an LC500, and a 458... you get it, thanks for all your wisdom and great joy you bring us!!!
The 2015 Mustang and the 04 Cobra videos saved my marriage. This one will push me to be a productive member of society.
I love how he has 'gas gas gas' by manuel on the head unit OMG
What an easter egg eh
Initial D vibes intensifies haha yes
DO YOU LIKE. MY CAR!
This was the first car with 400+ hp I ever rode in, as a friend‘s father picked him and me up from school. Never will I forget the sense of speed that thing gave to me as a young boy...
this Video reminded me why this is the car I once hope to own
Why are my eyes blurry after hearing Tamura-san call it his life's work? 🥺
Beautiful piece, SG gentlemen. Get designers and engineers in more of your videos to talk about their creations. These are their children, in a way.
What an unbelievably powerful closing statement. That's the kind of thing that leaves an impression on you for years to come.
This has to be the absolute best car reviews out there. Seriously..
Incredible amount of work for these videos.
You should watch the one of the Lexus LFA that he did.
Mr. GTR seems to be a charamastic guy. Big props to him for doing a interview in english.
He is also Mr. Z these days.
@@povertyspec9651 Do you think the next Z car will actually be all new? Or just a 370 with a engine swap?
25:22 Hearing that engine roar is just something else... Amazing
I just watched this with my pug. At the end my pug transformed into a Belgian Malinois and ate my neighbors chickens.
Had me busting out laughing rn. Well done
I'm watching with my pug but my pug just farts
@@chrisa7832 "results may vary"
pugs suck
The amount of pride and craftsmanship that goes into making this makes it worth every penny
well, when they put in the 4.4 billet block, it becomes .....
27:46 2 professionals who have driven everything, giggling like school boys. thank you Nissan
Mark just casually and very visibly standing on a box behind the GTR is why i love this channel.
"You hopeless old fart, a Datsun broke your neck." -Richard Hammond
I first saw the R35 in person at a track event in Texas back in 2013. I was blown away, as well as much of the competition, by several R35 GTRs that attended that day. It was amazing and surreal at the same time. The R35 is an amazing piece of engineering and tech.
I agree man, if you ever get a chance to drive one, I definitely recommend it. It is an amazing machine.
I absolutely loved my 2013 GTR, it brought me a ton of joy and I loved just randomly flooring it around town and getting that buzz from the raw speed. I notice with many of my cars though that it began to just sit in the garage and never be driven while I kept driving my old cheap Hondas from way back in the day. I let it go last year to chase my childhood dream and buy my own airplane!! One day I will probably buy another GTR but when I realized I wasn't driving it anymore and it was just collecting dust it had to go to fuel my only childhood dream!! I do hope they make an R36 but who knows in today's world. Keep up the great videos!
Damn, I stayed til the end to hear the text to speech bot telling me how to live life but was pleasantly taken aback.
What a masterpiece,
Bravo Jack and short guy.
It's so cool to see how "ahead of its time" this car was at launch and how Nissan kept working on the platform to keep it relevant and "current" to the extent it is possible. Even if this lost the "70k 911 turbo fighter" that it had at launch, it's still an amazing piece of engineering.
Yep it's the philosophy they had ever since the R32, continual evolution.
i mean just to be able to go against the turbo and turbo s is an amazing feat
The NFS underground like text transition are so nostalgic.
Yes and also the Eurobeat reference
thanks for being the ONLY reviewer to understand what the GTR is all about and taking it to the shop, congrats
SG’s CZcams reviews are the best “car show” theres ever been, name one better. Never stop man.
The GT-R will forever be iconic in my eyes. The passion, the dedication, and the underdog story it took, to get to the level it’s at today. That’s why I want a GT-R.
One thing I will say about this car vs LITERALLY EVERYTHING ELSE is it sounds like a higher revving v6 but it doesn't blow out your eardrums and it doesnt gurgle and fart all over you and and the sound is authentic vs being some over the top noise machine. That right there makes me like this more before even getting in it
the r35 GTR is a LEGEND. deserves it place in automotive history. it forced all the manufacturers to step up their game. specifically Porsche. this thing spanked the 997.1 turbo so bad
I initially skipped this video during lunch today, but I'm watching it at home now, and I really like it more from realizing it was one of your more "special" videos, where you bring in industry experts & talk with them, & discuss deeper concepts.
I really like these videos. They're a great treat every once in a while.
It's my life's work. Nothing more needs to be said.
Love the Eurobeat on the radio at 2:05.
"What does GT-R mean to you?"
"My life's work."
...Damn. I'll treat it well, promise.
I don’t understand how this video can have 3/4 million views and only 1200 Likes. Madness. This is the best car content out there.
This is so startling, and very out of character to see a Japanese person/engineer be so outspoken and clear about his vision and his life work. Well done getting a interview with him, he must have been hazed so much by people that didn't understand what they were trying to accomplish. Appreciated.
Im impressed how well the styling aged over this long.
Everytime I see one on the road...such a handsome car
You’d love and appreciate a car when you understand the concept and history behind it. GTR beauty is underneath its skin, this car is Legendary! Great review guys.
I'll go ahead and say this is peak Geese. This is the best video they've ever done. The GT-R gets so much undue hatred, just because it was the most wanted car of a generation. I can't imagine people watching this video and not wanting to sell body parts to get one of these all-time classics.
Still a terrific car, but the new prices are funny. There’s so many lightly used examples with factory warranty’s for veryyy reasonable money.
No lowballers "Lightly used, adult-driven" Lol somehow I doubt it
For whatever reason, the 2020+ models just sit around. '18-'19 are just completely gone but I imagine that just has to do with the latest wheel design looking kinda bad. 19' would be the year to own since that's when they finally resolved the noisy bellhousing issue.
@@ianholmquist8492 the way I look at it is I’d be beating my GTR senseless too so as long as it has a warranty whatever lol
@@ianholmquist8492 cash only I know what I have
I don't have a clue what the guy from Nissan said, but he was very convincing. I agree.
Complex
I didn't have too much of an interest in the R35 before this video, but you guys somehow have me getting emotional over it now
The absolute most consequential supercar of the 21st century, and the best documentary about it. Bravo guys, and Bravo Nissan!
This was amazing! Thanks to Nissan for giving the Savagegeese boys the opportunity to deliver.
What a great interview with Hiroshi Tamura
Yet again, the attention to detail on literally every aspect of this video is a clear testament to your passion for this industry. For the love of me, I will not understand how I've been subscribed for countless years now and you STILL don't have a million plus subs.
Since I was in high school I wanted this car, I still want it!
that was incredible, getting the interview with Mr. GTR himself was a great touch. Thank you guys so much for doing this. Never change, don't sell your soul to motortrend or something when they come knocking
PS 1 "Gran Turismo" made me fall in love with so many cars!! Rx-7, 3000 gt, Subaru wrx sti, Evolution even honda Prelude!!!
The R34 will always be my dream car.... but the R35 is a legend as well. Amazing video guys!
This gave me a new appreciation for the R35. It didn't get "old," rather it ended up being more interesting than the newer competition thanks to Nissan's obsession with improving it, while keeping some edges.
This video is the best birthday present. Thanks guys!
Before I die I want to visit Japan. Such a fascinating culture and talented people.
In Spring to see the Cherry Blossom
@@phillipmarnik absolutely
I’ve always been amazed at how good this car looks in person, they look like the bullet train of the sports car world!
It looks totally unlike anything else. Real motorheads will know what it is.
This is one of the best car reviews I’ve literally ever seen.
I keep saying this, how do these guys not have a million subscribers for this level of insight and video quality. There are idiots with a camera going to car dealership to film the spec sheets with ihphones with zero knowledge about cars and no charisma that have a million subscribers...
That ending.... It's perfect. The quality of some of these longer docs is insane.
That was mesmorizing considering I never really cared about these cars, but can now see how they relate to the everyday enthusiast cars. Very cool inisights and thank you for the amazing content.
This is one of the best car reviews I’ve literally ever seen. Completely comprehensive and enjoyable throughout the entire thing. Love the work you guys do.
Masterful video production, Mark & Jack. Your cinematography & editing skills are beyond mere beautiful, but an integral part of your passion & reverence for the product storytelling. I, as well as most of your viewers, could listen & watch this videos beyond this 37 minutes presentation. I certainly hope that you guys will have an opportunity to drive the f*@k out of this beast again on an ideal day at a demanding location (track!). Thanks for a sumptuous teaser. ✌🏼& 🏎
The way the engines are built is enough of a reason to love the car.
please keep doing what you guys are doing, true in-depth pieces like this nobody else is making
This video fills a gaping whole of information about this car. Been a fan since it came out and learned a ton of new info. Thank you! and keep on keeping on. Subscribed.
Truly amazing how much time and dedication has been put into the GTR over the years, imagine dedicating so much of your life to one project. Deserves every bit of respect.
THIS is the effort from Nissan I love seeing. I’m so excited to see what you guys have to say about the new Z, when you get your hands on one. I love the way it looks, and am infinitely curious about the quality, and driving experience.
Awesome video, as always.
Yep home grown twin turbo six cylinder with a manual transmission for $45k fully loaded. It's the old Z32 all over again, even the price is similar to the 1996 model before correcting for inflation! I really hope Nissan sends out the fully loaded manual models as the press fleet.
That final quote is really quite beautiful.
I'm not a huge GTR fanboy, but after watching that video, I do respect it a lot more than I did. Another great one, Mark.
The end of this video gave me chills. "What does GTR mean to you?" "It's my life's work". Such a well done production gentlemen.
I love these episodes of Lonesome Dove in which Augustus and Woodrow talk about cars, run into some guys in a saloon, and then go on a drive out along the great prairie.
What does GT-R mean to you? "It's my life's work." In case you missed it at the very end of the video. Glad I watched until the very end to see that.
Very emotional.
A truly aspirational car that made a huge impact on the automotive industry
I'm 6'-3" and the legroom is one huge plus with this beast. I rented one at a track in Las Vegas and was super comfortable, and there was plenty of room for the helmet as well.
Finally!! A very well paid tribute to one of the most iconic sport cars!
Coffee + Pop Tarts + SVG gang...reporting for duty!

Fancy seeing you here, love your content.
@@johnlilley9363 yes sir!
You guys bring a lot of soul and passion back into reviewing vehicles and your storytelling gives the audience a better picture of what it's actually like to own such a special car. I for one appreciate all the work that goes into every video and consistently come back for more top-tier content. Long live Savagegeese!
