A friend of mine had one in high school, (a touch older though I think), and ended up showing off for a girl and wrapping it around a tree. Only in the hospital for a couple months. I'm sure she was completely impressed.

I used to research the crap out of the r35s until their price started ballooning and I gave up on actually saving for one.

I just looked them up on cars.com and the only one around me below 80k is a 2010 one
So is the R35 the same as a GT-R? Or...the JDM version...? Or...?

I don't know if that's an S or not, but it's definitely a 997TT.

EvoMS is a tuning company. Their GT700 kit takes the OEM 500-ish horsepower and bumps it up to 700. They have a 775 hp kit as well, but there's no need to be greedy, right? And then all the supporting mods, such as wheels, tires, suspension, brakes, etc...

If you want a really crazy 911, look up the 9ff GT9-R.

Round 2; If i was going off the deepend like some of the people here and going a no-holds barred hypercar.

No Contest. Gemballa Mirage GT. Not Even Close.



Totally a screaming metal death trap but holy shit is that car gorgeous

Same. The Current GTR is the R35 (technically CBA-R35). The R numbers refer to their chassis code.

R32


R33


R34

Oh wow! I don't think I've ever seen that before. It's gorgeous! German? I'm going to have to look that thing up.

I'd take a Gemballa Avalanche over any of the other 997 mods, if for nothing else, for that exhaust setup

If I wasn't going crazy with my Aston, I'd probably pick an M5 sedan. (still crazy for me, but a medication level crazy instead of inpatient). Fun, plenty of room, plenty of mods, your garage will love billing you, what else can you want?

Gemballa is basically the best German tuning outfit I'm aware of.

The Mirage is based on a Carrera GT, Avalanche is based on a 997, they do a Panamera "Mistrale", Cayenne "Tornado", as well as their INSANE MIG-1 Ferrari.

Tricked me, that Gemballa is really a Porsche!



A very, very, beautiful Porsche.

That Gemballa Mig is based on an Enzo! I don't know how anyone drives an Enzo, especially on a hot day, without getting high as a kite! The glue they use for the entire cabin stinks even on a normal day! You'd be feeling good going 180mph next to the State Patrol office.

I've honestly never been a fan of Gemballa's styling. They have a very signature style, but it's one that just doesn't click with me.


Meanwhile, a 9ff GT9. They found that the OEM roof line interfered with their top speed goals, so they completely rebuilt the entire structure to meet their needs. It's been documented at 270 mph and can do 0-186 mph in under 13 seconds. It's not about appearance at all; only performance. And performance is sexy in itself.

To each their own haha. I hate that they've more or less deleted the rear body lines of the car on that version.

If I was going for raw performance it would never be in a car. Just drop $50k into tuning a Ducati Panigale and try not to drive it so fast that it rips my torso off my body.
