    There is such a thing as the R-Spec, although boorny may be referring to the V-Spec, the R-Spec is another nik name of the so far unsurfaced factory Evo-Spec which is meant to be the ultimate road going track weapon ever made, lets wait and see if it ever births Click here to enlarge

    There are also some aftermarket tuners selling R-Spec labelled upgrade/tuning packages...

    Anyone with a GT-R who wants to go truly ballistic should opt for one of those rather than a factory V-Spec, they produce far more outstanding results and cost a hell of alot less too Click here to enlarge

    As mentioned before, for all and everything to do with the R35, there's no better place than the GTRBLOG !

    It's been going since day one of its release...Click here to enlarge

    That's a great idea...but you might end up wanting to kill each other, because each one of you will want the car more and more to yourself LOL... Click here to enlarge

    Under 'normal' depreciation, I'd say they'd be worth around 50% of new car cost when 5 years old...

    BUT it is an R35 GT-R and that changes things because it isn't exactly a 'normal' vehicle, so we can only guess ??

    It will depend alot on what Nissan does in the future and many other factors...

    If there's a new model by then, it'll definitely fall in value, if not it'll remain high...

    If numbers sold remain small, values will remain high, if Nissan Aust. sell heaps, then that'll cause S/H values to drop more so than not...

    Definitely a hard one to call on a car of this magnitude - will be interesting though, I can tell you that I too am very very keen and am keeping a close eye ATM on anything up for grabs, but so far none have come up, still too early maybe...

    I wonder what the longevity will be on them with regards to servicing and then reliability due to complexity...
