Congrats. You will dominate everything, all the time. That's what they're for, after all. |

Not side blades like yours wolfman101, but the new side spats have been re designed for the 14. Won't say a price but the 14 model has gone up roughly $2800 over the 13. And yes have driven many GTR's as well as v10 R8's and this 14 is scary quick! also there has only been a few 14 models imported so far |

That's more or less what I thought-a little less actually. Thanks for the info. The new tail lights REALLY help the rear. |

Ninja.. Where are you out of curiosity? Amazing to me that anyone hasn't seen an r35 at some point... |

I thought they were ALWAYS 175k+ new? As for Gallardos/R8s, etc... no point. An R35 will smash any of them. They are just a different class of car builtbfor one thing, and one thing only... And they are the best at it. It |

Oh yeah, no I know how much they've changed. The constant improvements are one of the things that impresses me the most about them. |

Nope, v8, which I chose over the 10 for several reasons. |

Understand certainly personal taste in looks etc, but more luxurious? You must have a 2012 plus r8 as when we looked at many different configurations of 09-10 r8 we found them quite boring and dull, as well as the finishes and seats. The 2014 gtr is much of an upgrade over the previous as now have a lot more padded leather and nicer suede used on the trimmings. But hey it's all about what attracts you to particular cars, if we all drove the same thing it would be damn boring. |

The extended leather package (not common) plus the carbon pack takes the interior from one of the worst in the range to probably the best. I held off on buying one for years for the same reason. Standard interior is rubbish. Properly specced there is virtually no plastic exposed at all... Everything - whole door card dash both sides, center console... Door sills, literally everything is covered in nappa leather. I've been looking at pics of the leather pack 14 gtr, and it's better than before but it really still doesn't compare. That's fine though, that's not what it's for. |

If you are curious, my cross shops were DBS, v12 Vantage, xkrs and Evora S. All offered a similar balance of the characteristics I needed... Though the Evora was a little more downmarket than the others. |
