Here's Why I'm Selling My FAVORITE Car: The Nissan GT-R

[@ViperGuy145]

I could never imagine paying 65k for any car with almost 100k miles but people do it all the time. The market is there and you are extremely smart to cash out while you can. Love the content JR.

[@firesurfer]

There aren't many 100k cars with 650 hp.

[@Tool0GT92]

@The Streelight Express This is a pretty cringe comment, people don't really shit on automatics anymore since they have gotten way better in the last 10 years. No one cares if you drive a manual, the world is full of millions of grandmas wo drive stick.

[@marktate2683]

It is only due to the kind of car it is. These days it is pretty rare to find a decent used vehicle that has under 200k miles for under 5k. I have seen so many people selling beat up cars with bad transmissions and/or engines for 2-3k

[@Bluecobra0260]

@The Streelight Express found the poor lol

[@CrashRacknShoot]

@The Streelight Express right, because "respect" from snobbish dickheads is all anyone really wants.

[@25Wineman]

Just a small technical thing. Has anyone else noticed that JR has a cameraman & the videos are just so much better.

[@robertbeirne9813]

Somethings you just can’t do with one hand, like get that battery out.

[@Mrshoujo]

Don't give this car away and don't settle for too low. Get the most you can and stand firm.

[@DjDestinyChicago]

I agree 100%! My neighbor had a 2013 and got $70K for a trade in

[@Chris-hw4mq]

Value of a modded car drops compared to a stock one so thats why he is selling it for 65k

[@lockonstratos7787]

So you want him to rip someone off? Considering its modded probably has loads of miles on it, and these are hard miles at that more then likely It has battery draining issues that's just to start it's not worth what hes asking for to anyone unless they want a track car or take over trash car

[@madmex2k]

Give this car away, and settle for really low. Take less than what you can and don't stand firm.

[@tortron]

@@madmex2k just send it straight to the scrap yard, make sure you pour sand down the engine and cut the loom so it cant be revived first

[@MdvK13979]

JR, I'm 'watching you go' for quite a while now, and this video is exactly why I like your content so much! You're passionate, knowledgable but also downright reasonable. Added to that a contagious enthusiasm which makes YT a better place for it! Thanks heaps for making me feel better right as I need it :)

[@keithdosik]

Oh no JR! It’s alright man! We like watching cars come and go sometimes. Always makes room for something cooler and more interesting

[@ryanm4319]

Lol this channel will never have anything cool or interesting, it’s the midwest enjoy 20yr old C5 content.

[@Chris-hw4mq]

@@ryanm4319 if you dont like it go watch DDE, they lease cars like crazy

[@CrashRacknShoot]

@@ryanm4319 so, what? Do you just hate watch videos? I'm failing to comprehend a bigger waste of time than that.

[@ButtKickersReviews]

All the big KZbinrs with money are unloading excess cars, my wife and I have unloaded a few with value while the market is high, and really anyone smart is unloading right now. The bottom is about to fall out of the used enthusiast car market. ALL air cooled Porsches are pulling huge money for no reason (there’s a ton of them), I knew we were in a huge bubble when 80’s 911 targa’s started climbing above 30k. This market is artificial.

[@patcb829]

It is a seller's market for sure.

[@pops55650]

Right time to sell, hope you get what you want out of it, sounds like a really fair price.

[@itsnotme07]

Sad/happy day. Sad you won't have it any longer, but happy someone will and will drive it! I sent my 1997 Lincoln Mark VIII LSC on to it's next owner 6 years ago for the same reasons, I wasn't driving it much...miss that car for it's size, utility and while wicked big, it was pretty fast for it's size. Air ride suspension was pretty nice too. On to the next cool ride when it comes along!

[@daddynichol52]

My wise father once said to me, "Don't let your possessions own you." As long as I remember that, my angst and chances of sellers remorse simply evaporate.

[@generatorjohn4537]

That is great advice!

[@pleaseentername.192]

Putting a aftermarket remote start on a Nissan is a good way to brick your car (make it never drive again). The car usually won't develop a problem until you go to have new keys programmed. If your car wasn't designed to do something its best left alone. Computers are very picky and car computers are no exception.

[@carstuff4u942]

Fact

[@mikeanderson8023]

Love all of your content JR, but $25 for a maintainer is a no-brainer. I only drive my 84 Z in summer and the maintainer has kept the battery fail free for 10 winters.

[@generatorjohn4537]

I use a battery terminal disconnect switch on my 80 Triumph that sits mostly in the garage. Rather it be disconnected for safety reasons than keep a battery tender on it. For me it works.

[@Flies2FLL]

I drive my '14 Cayman S nearly every day and I still keep it on a maintainer. Doing this will make your battery last twice as long. It only takes a few seconds to plug in, but it will save you hundreds of dollars down the road.

[@ttopero]

@@Flies2FLL does this help with issues from extreme weather like in the desert or “tundra” states? I had to replace batteries every other year in Phoenix. Got 3-4 years in Minneapolis.

[@Flies2FLL]

@@ttopero I've been told that using a maintainer goes a long way towards preventing lead acid batteries from "sulfating". Keeping them charged keeps the sulfate issue from occurring until the battery is very old. 6 years is not unusual if a maintainer is used. One thing that can also be done to improve battery life is to get the battery AWAY from the engine. Heat is one of the things that kills batteries. My Cayman S has the battery in the cowling, but this is a mid engine car so it never gets that hot. My previous car was a 928, and its battery was in a compartment under the spare tire.

[@ttopero]

@@Flies2FLL Thank you. Good to know. Batteries gotten so expensive so this seems worth the peace of mind & daily effort.

[@Cartier_specialist]

Your battery is in the exact same location in my Infiniti G35 -- it even looks like the same battery. My G35 has self healing paint and I'd be shocked if the GTR doesn't also have self healing paint. Park it in the sun because that's what activates the "self healing". And yes, it does actually work.

[@ShaneEwing]

Surprised to see you letting this one go. Beautiful car.

[@ClassicStreetIron]

On the next Hoovies Garage, I buy the cheapest Nissan GT-R in the nation

[@BradColemanisHere]

Cool, man. Good idea to move a few cars now if you're looking to save for a Turbo S. This one is awesome. I hope it goes quick for you.

[@P.Galore]

Now you can get that sweet Corolla SE you've had your eyes on!

[@brantleyhudson2892]

Nothing wrong with a Corolla. Really great car. Definitely not in the 65K range or in the class of the GT-R, but it wasn't supposed to be.

[@P4SDetails]

This tops my dream car list for personal reasons. Selling one would crush me.

[@josechristianiniguezboniil3996]

When it comes to the world of investing,most people don't know where to start.fortunately great investors of the past and present can provide us with guidance

[@nataliepinheiro6457]

Same here, I made $12,400 profits on investing since I started trading with Mr Kevlin Morrison his trading strategies are too notch am winning consistently trading with Mr Kevlin Morrison. He really the best broker I've made a lot of profit investing with him.

[@dmann1209]

Nice car. My obd port tuner ended up being the battery bandit assassin in my F150, it would magically turn on when the truck was parked for several days. Great video, the engine looked like fine art.

[@az7378]

You definitely had a nice spec GT-R. I like the black wheels with the white paint. It looks sharp as hell.

[@carlgruver695]

Wise man on selling that beautiful ride

[@Dave-in-MD]

That cowl piece is two pieces and very easy to remove and gives you much easier access. Same setup as several Infinities.

[@jean-marcandjoshua-petsjournal]

The GTR is a beautiful car. It will be a shame to see it go.

[@ckarnik]

A vehicle that doesn't provide content has no place in the JR fleet. Sell it and buy vehicles that do.

[@brandonbell9087]

This makes me want to cry. 😭 but we have been in contact about it. I’ll keep ya posted. Would love to have it back. I do have the stock door light still in my tool box! This car was an absolute blast owning before you and glad it went to a good home with you and I’ve still got to enjoy it. Hopefully I’ll be buying it back soon.

[@phenomanII]

I hope you do end up buying it back. It seems like an amazing car and it'd be a shame for it to go to someone who won't cherish it.

[@brandonbell9087]

@@phenomanII oh trust me I cherish and miss it alot lol. Dreamed of owning it by the time I turned 25 and made it happen. Then went through some stuff and bought a house and sold it for the time being but now I have the opportunity to buy it back soon so we will see!

[@nachobroryan8824]

I wonder if Darelle is behind the camera since he's been around a lot lately.

[@ToolsOutsideTheBox]

I think the group 26/26R is a smaller but more powerful battery. Common in the Toyota Yaris.

[@mr.h1059]

THAT AUTOMATIC TRANS HAS ME DROOLING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@markp2865]

I assume you have an emergency key in case the fob doesn't open the door. I bought an auction Nissan Altima and the battery died. The emergency key did not fit the door. I had to jack up the car and connect a jump pack to the starter, so I could open the door with the fob. I think someone replaced the door without changing the lock cylinder. The GT-R will make someone happy.

[@Very_Angry_Citizen]

I'm not a Nissan fan but I think the GTR will be the next Grand National, Hertz GT500 or Yanko Camaro. If you can afford it, drain the fluids and garage park it for the next 20 years. Should be a better investment than stonks. (Diamond hands).

[@SHO1989]

It has to be the smart financial move. I shudder to thing what the monthly vig is for insurance and taxes on it, not to mention the insurance and taxes on the rest of the fleet.

[@peterrexilius254]

Lol...like how you edited the battery install....had to contort it to get it in???...🤣🤣🤣
