Yeah I've always liked the skyline. Hot car. But not for sale here. Now people are telling me to not bother getting an STi or something else and get a skyline. Well... I can't afford a skyline either lol.

it almost resembles a 350 z from some angles.well, the reason it was soo damm expensive was the importation cost.that is a 35k - 45k car. i mean, it's still expensive but nowhere near the astronomical price an imported model demanded.i've seen a few G35 coupes with the GT-R emblems along with "skyline" across the trunk. this came after the spy photos of what the next skyline would look. which ofcourse looked just like the G35 coupe. nissan had claimed it would be an infinity model in the USA, nissan oversea.people thout they were cunning, try to fool me. ha!!

Looks alright, I just don't care for the front end as much. The rear and sides look great. The front looks like a combination of the new Mitsubishi Eclipse and that Infiniti coupe.
