Looks are all about preference though. I hate the back rear side view of the R8, front view it's lovely though. The GT-R looks purposeful/mean front to back.

Wait wait, he's another one of those people that think that just because *they* don't think a car looks good that they must simply be an ugly car?

I've had a thing for GT-Rs for years, and I think the R35 more than lives up to the legacy. The fact that it's "cheap" just adds to the appeal. I saw one on a car yard a few months back and the look and lines are perfect for it. It's low and menacing and it performs like a much lighter car without looking as small and frail.
