New Nissan GT-R 2017 vs Audi R8 V10 Plus
Which would you choose/pick/want?

Watch the video first, could help you in deciding.


For me:

still lose to god car

lose to its price issit?

Resale value

And FC

Porsche 911

R8 can be very great for daily

also better day-to-day usability than GT-R

None coz no money to own either of them.

Fap fest?

Day dreaming.

I second this

Guess everyone's taste certainly different.

lowered gtr with wide bodykit owns nearly all the cars in the street, unless u have a konniegsegg

You must be even higher on weed. GTR has a boot. Audi not much. Neither car will putter well in traffic jam. GTR at least has better visibility all round.

Consider this if you live in Malaysia
R8 V10 - 5.0 liter Roadtax alone is RM 11,130.00
GTR R35 - 3.8 liter Roadtax alone is RM 5,730.00

Not yet being bombard with 0% NCD of the Insurance;

R8 V10 - Insured value of RM1,200,000 is RM 31,675.30
GTR R35 - Insured value of RM700,000 is RM 18,578.30

So which one do you choose?

Audi is an Audi

GTR is the poor man's toys while the R8 V10 is for those rich enough yet not sure how to drive.

In a pure track point of view, will rather get a Viper ACR or Corvette Z06 (or Z07)

Perhaps, Porsche 911 GT3 RS is best middle ground?

Grrr

This guy might be lagi high, McLaren P1 as a daily.

And most auto journalists always said that you can DD R8. They might be lying.

So I'm gonna rely on LYN forumers as my reliable source.

If want to get more suitable supercar for daily, get one of those super sedans like AMG S63/E63/C63/CLA45, or BMW M5/M3 or the likes. You'll get practicality of a sedan coupled with performance level of a supercar.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

+1 sin

the thing is, r8 v10 looks like a pusy.

If he travel on highway alot I see no problem why mclaren not being his choice.

But still, in LYN, how many really owns and drives these beast
"Performance luxury sedan"
Reminding me of Range Rover

looks like I'm better off with Audi S8

Actually this thread got derailed by those mentioning "daily drive"

But I think you are better off with pininfarina as your siggy stated.

haha the one in my siggy refers to the scuderia (Ferrari F1 team)

anyway I like classics like 250 GTO, Dino 246 GT, Daytona, 512BB, 308 GTS & Testarossa

gonna blame Miami Vice & Magnum P.I. for my love for the prancing horse

Audi R8

GTR maybe as fast as R8 or faster ...

but its V10 sound wins totally

Range Rover is an SUV.

Haha after test driving both cars in forza horizon 3 i still like the GTR more

Heart says GT-R, but brain says Audi. Too worried about DSG issues on the GT-R... yes, they claim to have fixed the issues, but I don't want a car that doesn't let me drive fast because the gearbox overheats... that forces me to go to the SC every time I drive fast, or use the launch control for like 3 times. That's just silly. And there have been too many broken GT-R gearboxes, despite those idiotic things like 3 launches, then go SC to replace the gearbox oil (which a) doesn't come cheap, and b) not every Nissan SC can do).

Basically Nissan knows their gearbox is unreliable and sensitive as hell, but they sell the car regardless. Shame on them.

Heh, traffic light and straight highway warriors. GTR is just a way for Nissan to make money, selling gearbox. Folks at gtrlife were screaming at Nissan for not even attempting to fix the box. Gimme 22k and you'll have a new box with the same tendency to poop given that you the owner just went over the line. Litchfields is a way to go.

Even if I were not to do those things (and why would I buy a GT-R then?), I don't like the idea of a car with such a big flaw.

VW/Audi may be blamed for using gearboxes that are JUST enough to handle the engine, which isn't a particularly good idea. But Nissan using a gearbox that can't handle the engine? That's just insane.

They, Nissan engineers, didnt expect their customer to be so impulsive when using the car. Though I think I have read maybe once an owner who lost the gearbox despite babying it. Yes it's the biggest flaw but I think the problem is inherent in the first model 2007 and up to 2010. 2011 version has been adapted to better software and parts but still wont gurantee abusive users.

Based on all the Kelisa beat Skyline videos online, Kelisa is obviously a better choice.

Nissan should've made the manual version but then would not be as staggeringly quick as it is.

I vote for Audi R8 for exclusively..

I frequently see gtr on msia road but hardly see audi r8..

Ratio about 8 gtr : 1 audi r8

No joke man but I see a lot of gtr on our road so my vote goes to audi r8



This man super rich liao. My kazen currently study there said majority average joe use train only to commute. Only rich will buy car eventhough the car there is not expensive.it is not mandatory because people got many public transport alternative as oppose to buying a car.

Become Lawyer can buy mclaren p1. Damn. Lawyer in malaysia only I see can bought 5 series, harrier, alphard.

Audi r8 v10 plus (you own an Audi with a Lambo heart, ironman feeling!).
Too many GTR around bored of seeing it

My suspicion is that the lightning quick times of the GT-R are in parts to blame for the reliability issues. They are pushing the gearbox very, very hard during those launch control starts, perhaps other cars with similar power to weight ratio could be as fast, if they were to drop the clutch at such a high rpm. But they try to preserve the clutch, so they don't try to go for the last tenth of a second...

Just a hunch.

That the engineers didn't expect people to push the car hard... seriously? Is it a spacious car? No. Is it a cheap car? No. Is it a comfortable or luxurious car? No. No, no, and no. The sole purpose of the GT-R is fast lap times/bragging rights/drag races. That's like engineers being surprised if people use an MPV to transport people...

Why all other manufacturer's model didn't suffer such problem?

Since nearly all supercar does dump clutch that way

Maybe not so extreme. Maybe the GT-R is more brutal. Instead of 3000 rpm they do it at 4500 rpm... Maybe the GT-R drops it extremely quick, while other cars leave a bit more time, so the forces working on the gearbox aren't as strong. Maybe.

Or the Nissan engineers just screwed up/couldn't be bothered. Who know. I hope that's not it though.

Heh. Looking at this site seems that the gtr gearbox really and seriously has a lot to cover.

AFAIK, Porsche do with launch control at 4000+ rpm too

The first versions of the GTR (pre 2009) was having the launch programmed at 4500 rpm but afterwards they reprogrammed to about 3000 rpm. However they also keep increasing the engine power from around 480 to almost 600hp on the Nismo version.
