I have couple of EVs and an R35 GT-R, and it's horses for courses. The Tesla and my Note Nismo are brilliant daily cars, but for fun driving the R35 is definitely superior, it has far more interactivity and feedback and it is much more exciting. The GT-R feels wasted in city driving though, and that's where an EV is by far a better choice.

This gtr would most likely be low 10s in the quartermile. No way an "average electric family car" would have a chance against it. Most average evs are around the mid 11s. High performance versions like the Plaid definitely would beat it but that's a top spec performance ev.

I wonder what the maximum power upgrade would be with the stock exhaust? I don’t really care for the loud exhaust systems that people typically install on the Nissan GTR’s. That dull trombone/flatulence sound is a bit unremarkable to my ears. Seems like all of the modern Nissan V6 engines sound like this when fitted with a sports exhaust.

I went for the X7 because it can do both calm wafty driving and somewhat sporty/engaging driving. The 7-seat implementation is the best there is... an actually usable 3rd row! The S68 engine is an absolute force of nature, it will do 4.3's 0-60 all day. They've improved most of the unintuitive iDrive features with v8.5 so thankfully its much more user-friendly now. Although I will still NEVER understand why BMW removed the cruise control distance setting buttons from the steering wheel and replaced them with NOTHING... could understand if they put something more important there, but to leave them blank is just STUPID

Good to watch, my wife has a very well maintained mk5 GTI as a daily, sometimes I'm allowed to drive it. Its a standard 2006 5 door, her classic is for winter and farming use Golf mk2 Country Syncro. I love them both but she is VW golf mad. My daily is an Elise S2 1zz and my classic is a Lancia integrale evo2. The mk5 will never go, on the road it will out drag most cars, its incredibly comfortable, handles brilliantly and more than anyone could want. The GTI is the best all round every day car, before the integrale went to a stupid price this was the best everyday car. Not anymore. Buy a good mk5 GTI and you won't want for anything else.
