looks too similar to the 350z, performance sounds impressive however

Remember seeing one of them at a Jap/Yank car show a few months back.
Was fairly nice but looks too much like the 350Z.

This car has been about 7 years in the making, the pictures have been around since 2001..It was at goodwood but was covered up on the front and rear to hide the final looks.
But without the flat6 engine is it really a skyline, its not called a skyline is it ? Just a GT-R so not classed as a skyline !
Looks boring, only seen it grey.To me skylines look best in either sonic blue or midinight purple.
I would rather a r23 Gt-r over this new GT-R as it dosent look like a tuner and looks no where near as raw as the 32 and 34 gt-r models.
The g35 is from Infiniti and is a luxury brand of Nissan which is sold in American and Canada

at the end of the day time is moving on and so are the designs of cars. if they made it look old and raw like an r32 in wouldnt sell in this day and age.

Hahahahahah 
FLAT 6 engine?!?!
The RB26DETT in 32, 33 and 34's is a straight6. You'll find a flat 6 in a 911

sonic blue is a subaru colour, Bayside blue is the colour your talking about.
I'm being anal now 
I liek it.... great engine. Manufactures move on, designs change. They cant all be set in their ways, or release the same shape (exactly) for 30odd years.
If folk prefer a skyline 32, 33 or 34 you can still buy them over this GTR (its not a skyline)
