    So if you know so much about the car, why did you call it a turbo 350Z? And keep calling it a Skyline when it is not?

    Nissan USA isnt calling it a skyline and all the other "skyline" models are here in the states as G series cars. So I would call it its proper name as the GTR. Magazine may have speculated it as the new "skyline GTR" before it came out, but how is that any different than calling the new "NSX prototype" an NSX when it 99.9% wont be called an NSX. Not hating, just being logical.

    logical, if its a G35 in USA then its a G35, not a skyline.

    my example

    http://www.jdmv35.com/jdm_v35.htm

    no matter what you do to the car, you can change the badges on the outside and call it a skyline 350gt whatever you want it. but reality is.. its still a INFINITI G35


    yeahhhhhh you likeeeee when she does thattttttt

    This whole argument is kind of gay. Why don't we all just appreciate the fact that it is cool car.

When the VSPEC GTR comes out the ZR1 will get a nice raping. I do however agree that this is a pointless thread. I see this car every day. On tv, on the internet, in every ****ing car magazine. It costs as much as a 911 or a Z06 and I see those every day on the road, within 2 years these things will be on every corner. It's not a ****ing Enzo or Veyron. Stop posting pictures.

    The car is exactly the same in Japan other than RHD. But you dont see people walking around saying they have a skyline. Its called a GTR in japan and its called a GTR here. It doesnt have anything in common with the older skylines other than its turbocharged and AWD. No similar chassis, engine, suspension, transmission. The only thing similar cosmetically is the tail lights. I know this argument isnt going to result to anything but Nissan doesnt call it a Skyline, so it ISNT.

    geez people, just call it whatever the mfg call it.

    Nissan announced that this will be a Nissan GT-R and will no longer carry the "skyline" prefix, then let's call it the GT-R?

    Simple, they created the names, we follow.

    I don't see Honda fanboys call the RSX by Integra (even though the JDM version is still Integra) Or Toyota Fanboys call the new IS by Altezza?? lol

    Simple, it's because they aren't really the same (even though mfg still name them the same).

    Now, if the MFG announced officially as to why they name the car a certain name and not the "tradition" ones, then people should respect their decisions.

    Quick lecture even though I'm no way a hardcore Nissan fanboy:

    Previous Nissan "Skyline" Model have so many types/Trims. GT-R was the top of the line type that made that specific Nissan Skyline model so famous. Thus people over used the term "Skyline" when they talk about the GT-R type.

    To distinguish the difference, Nissan decided to name the new car, GT-R as its own model. It's no longer a type of the Skyline model nor have any association with the Skyline. The only Nissan Skyline Associations are the 350GT, 370GT, etc. These are named Infiniti G35s and G37s. These are the "true" continuation of the Nissan Skyline Models.

    That's more than just a plastic label or whatever.

    I still don't get why people are so ignorant to call the cars by the names the mfg named it? It's only make people stupid, going around, calling it something it's not. If someone doesn't know the "fvck" about "ANY" car, they better shut up, listen or at least do some research before blabbering their mouth claiming their subjective opinions as if it's the fact.

    I'm a automotive enthusiast and I take fair and unbiased views toward many vehicles. It's completely okay when people don't know about something, and call it. But it just sadden me to see ignorant people, even after they've been told the fact, refused to acknowledge it.



    Btw, OP, thanks for sharing. I've yet to see a local own driver. You cellphone takes better p ics than mine
