THIS IS WHAT IT COSTS TO OWN/MAINTAIN AN R35 GT-R

Now in my seventh year of owners, and after owning a decent number of high-end cars, I thought it would be useful to share my findings on maintenance costs for the R35 GT-R.

[@SlammedSeries]

These costs reflect if you don't have the means to do your own maintenance. Can easily be reduced 60-75% if you do it yourself

[@thaitanium9025]

Well, he's giving the cost of what it would be if you have your car serviced, which is fair, because nine out of ten high end car owners will not work on their own cars. Most of us don't have special tools for a Lambo or a Ferrari. And if you work on your car, good for you. You save even more money. I work on my GTR, and it's not even about the money. I just love working on it as a hobby. For some of us, there's a sense of pride and joy to drive my own car right after I worked on it.

[@ralphharrison6622]

It's funny how some people don't even think about maintenance costs. Just because you can afford to buy a sports/exotic car, doesn't mean you can afford to maintain it.

[@DoctorTauri]

Tbh your comment is flawed. If you can afford you should be able to maintain it. Unless you save 100k cash and buy an exotic which the chances of that are extremely low

What If your one of the those owners that's mechcanically inclined and can fix his own car?

[@sly9263]

@@nitro300 CAN fix vs WILL fix is two different things- I think the majority of owners at a certain pricepoint do little maintenance themselves. I used to do basic maintenance on my cars- brakes, rotors, oil, etc. As I've made more money and am in the position to buy nicer cars I find myself less inclined to do the maintenance myself because I'd rather relax or do other things with my free time. I'm much more inclined to install mods that I'm capable of handling myself rather than maintenance- there's nothing thrilling about swapping out brakes, oil, and filters as far as I'm concerned.

[@morejelloplease]

In 2012, i bought a new GT-R with only 4 miles. This was the refresh and the wouldn't void you're warranty if you launched it in "R" mode. The thing wasn't even broken in yet and it literally broke down the next day. it was in the shop for over a month, it had the rear transaxle replaced under warranty ($25,000). I sold it and custom ordered a new Z06. I wanted to like the R35, but it lived at the dealer more than it did in my garage. Then the dealer tells me to do a fluid change, oil, transmission, etc would cost $7k. I said bye felicia!

[@thatgirlliani]

Thats surprisingly reasonable costs for what the car is. 🥰 Thanks for putting this up.

[@rschmidt587]

I'm getting ready to do a transmission and differential service on my 2010 GTR and it cost $310 for the needed amount of Motul High Torque transmission fluid and another $175 for a trans filter and pan gasket. Not outrageous for an 18,000 mile service but then I do the work myself.

[@appledelafuente]

well said buddy! i loved my GTR, then had my son and the car seat was hard in there. it was a 2009 and man i could tell you how much fun it was on the hills here in Texas. luckly my son is going to be 4 and my wife said its time for the GTR to come back in our lives. :) 2 more weeks and I'm counting down the days.

[@LongTimeAgoNL]

2000-2500 dollars a year in maintenance costs including everything?! Damn, thats really not thát expensive. Honestly. I expected much worse. A 'normal' daily driver car can be around 400 to 1000 euro's a year over here in The Netherlands.

[@PMAndrews]

it's definitely pretty good going considering in the last 3 years my average maintenance cost per year for my e92 330i was about £3000 ($4000)

[@tavirosu25]

What sucks in Europe is the dealer service garages. They are so overpriced and trash work and workers. If you ever get a sportscar or enthusiast car, just befriend a good car mechanic at a local shop. Most of the time you will get better service from them! Bonus: If you already have a mate that's a mechanic :)

Lol BMW dealer is quoting me $1400 to change the spark plugs on my F82 M4. I replaced it myself with the same Bosch spark plugs from FCP euro for $37.74 The entire job did took me about an hour and half. To be honest, a huge portion of the premium maintenance cost on a sport car is “performance markup” on both parts and labor. Except for tires maybe

[@youngjimjones]

Thanks for this great review. Everyone definitely made it seem super expensive. This breakdown brought everything in to perspective for me. I've own BMW and Mercedes and the maintenance prices out of warranty seems very similar. I just spent $1700 on a set of tires this year. Now I'll continue my search for one. Thank you again.

[@cmdrdredd]

For comparison I daily my 2017 Mustang Shelby GT350 and it is $220 per oil change every 5,000 miles even if I buy my own oil. I only use Amsoil 5w-50 and the Amsoil cartridge style filter for my engine. Tires I'm running are 305/30-19 in the front and 325/30-19 in the rear, I only run Michelin Pilot Sport 4s (best balance of performance, tread life, and wet performance) which cost $500+ each (about $2000 all in with no deals). I'm ready for my second set of rear tires after 2 years of ownership. I purchased the car with 51,000 miles and now have 78k on the odometer. I purchased the new tires right around the 60k mark so I have gotten great life out of them for my usage. Figure 2 oil changes a year and tires every 2 years that's about ~$1400/yr just to keep it running without any other fluid changes or maintenance issues. In time it would need a clutch and that is $1500+ just for the clutch and flywheel before install. Even if you go OEM that's not going to save much and may be more depending on pricing you can find. OEM Brake Pads which are pretty decent are about $300 front and $100 rear. Slightly more or less for aftermarket pads. You will eat them up on a track day so expect to change them out with new fluids as well. Not cheap depending on your usage. If you are tracking you will spend a lot of money on tires, brake pads, and fluids. For a daily or semi daily though, I feel its reasonable if you want a fun car to cruise in and are able to keep up with checking your fluid levels etc. I'd argue that these performance oriented cars are not for you if you want to start it up and just go. There is a little more care involved on the part of the owner.

[@yourmanzach2307]

you should be changing the oil every 3k with such a high revving engine. They also drink oil.

[@keanedavis6151]

I’ve owned a GT350 prior to my R35 and I think the mustang is more expensive to maintain. Loved the car but they are not holding their value as much as I would have liked. I think I’ll buy another once the price really drops.

I find it shocking that the R35 GT-R is the longest running generation unlike the generation of the R32, R33 & R34 where its no more than 3 years vs. the R35 is over 10 years. The R35 has been around longer than its predecessors the R32, R33 & R34 combined probably due to the fact its the more street legal generation in North America.

[@traviswalker8933]

Or it's the fact that Nissan couldn't afford to develop a successor and is using the R35 platform for as long as it can to milk out cash.

[@SigTheSauceMan]

Kinda wrong there... First of all, the Nissan (R35) GT-R is *not* the next-gen Skyline. It's a separate car from its Skyline predecessor. Following the end of the R34's lifespan, the "Skyline" and "GT-R" badges were separated into two separate cars (or rather, the GT-R sub-range was removed and promoted into its own, separate vehicle). The V35 succeeded the R34 Skyline as an economically practical-but-sporty car. And the R35 succeeded the R34 GT-R as the purebred racecar. R32: 1989-1994 R33: 1995-1998 R34: 1999-2002 V35: 2001-2005 (aka. Infiniti G35) V36: 2006-2013 (aka. Infiniti G35/G37/Q40/Q60) R35: 2009-present V37: 2014-present (aka. Infiniti Q50)

[@traviswalker8933]

@@SigTheSauceMan no one talked about the R35 being a skyline here.

[@lvalledor3440]

I never used the name "Skyline" I only used "GT-R" because even some if not all Japanese call even Craig calls the R32, R33 & R34 a "GT-R" as much as the R35

[@CamberRockerCamber]

@@traviswalker8933 he's trying to spill knowledge that everyone already knew. Lol. Let him have his moment. I think it's the longest running generation because it's the most perfectly balanced generation. Either Nissan doesn't have the money or are scared to build the next gen GTR. Following to the R35 with a dud would be a huge blow to Nissan and the GTR name.

[@giralds2016]

6:40 - If you are mechanically inclined and have a nice set of quick jacks, you can cut the brake change, drive train and oil change costing to a fraction of that ( by cutting out the labor ) if you like tracking the car, its a strong recommendation to get used to doing these, as well as brake fluid, coolant, power steering etc.. fresh blood makes a mean car... old blood makes a dead car. That said, I know a few r35 owners, that daily their cars and enjoy the hell out of the cars. My twin turbo'ed 370z is cost heavy on tires but cheap otherwise (except for the 1st engine i blew at the track... oops) nissans are built well 9:37 34k at the dealership, and 25k mods..

Basically, if you can only barely afford to buy an R35 used, you probably can’t afford to keep it because of the running costs unless you garage it 95% of the time of ownership.

[@ObservationofLimits]

True, I mean I probably wouldn’t daily a GT-R (mostly because that’d be a lot of highway driving and rock chips are the bane of my existence). But for a weekend / track car that’s actually a great deal if you’re not keen on building your own track car. Surprisingly, I was seeing them everywhere out here in central Wisconsin the first few years they came out. Even in winter. I died a little bit inside because I refuse to believe every one of those guys put it on a lift and hosed the salt off when they got home.

Even the cost of maintenance can be reduced depending on which fluids you use. I'm not saying cheap out, but I am saying find what matches Nissan's specs and buy accordingly. You'll be surprised at what you save.

It is not required to change the transmission/diff oil after track event if the temp does not reach 130 C.

Knowing how to work on your own car goes a Long ways !!! Most people can't do the easiest things like change their own oil in the diffs and that's the biggest problems with most cars

I am in love with my 2.0T accord all over again after watching this. 42000 miles and original tires still good for another 8k-9k miles, same with breaks. Cheap is good, lol.

I was looking at buying a 09-12 GTR but ended up buying a much newer RS3 because I could get it about the same price but uber low miles. So far I love it and its about the same power with some tuning.
