Possibly the new Skyline?
Saw this on a nissan forum I frequent, thought some of you Skyline fans would like to have a look...

Interesting to say the least. Looks like they are moving towards the concept styles that Lexus is working at.

I REALLY hope that is the new Skyline. The side is soooo Viperish though.

god ******* no. If thats the new skyline then Nissan needs to get there heads out of there asses. I don't want a new body style. I don't want them to bring it to the states. if they do they better not call it a Skyline or eather a GTR-35. I take this quote from some one eles on the forums:

uhh... since nissan is the largest car company in the world, i think they have a better idea to how to sell and market cars than you... sorry to inform... im pretty sure that if they are using this design, that it is because they wanted a more aerodynamic and efficient body style to race in the jgtc.. plus, with toyota (the second largest car company in the world) bound to build a new sports car in 2007 - 2008 (the lexus lfa?) AND honda coming out with the V10 AWD concept they are expected to have on the way arround the same time, this would be Nissan's car to compete with them... imo they would be stupid not to call it the GTR... the skyline gtr's are known worldwide for their top performance and capabilities... the name alone is a huge marketting device even if it comes as an infinity... so please, get YOUR head out of your ***...
plus how can you call a concept drawing a POS car.. its not a car, its some pens and markers on a piece of paper... you have never seen it or driven it...

why would they recycle the parts of the r34? lol.. they're making a whole new car.. a bunch of the other companies are re-inventing thier namesakes.. why cant nissan do the same? if you like the r34, then buy it and import it.. dont throw a fit because they've turned it into a supercar. 'cant wait to see this in sheet-metal @ the auto show..

To add... the RB series motor is dead.
Love it or hate it, but its FACT
It ended with the introduction of the
VQ series motors.... sorry. The V35
skyline or the G35 as we know it in the
states was the first skyline to implement
it.
I kinda like this new design to be honest.
It could use some revisions but overall- nice.
