Not in the beautiful form it is now. It slightly resembles the g35 coupe...but not entirely. At the NAIAS I asked a Nissan spokeswoman about it, she said as much as she would like to see it, it's in the stages right now where they cannot really say what will be the outcome. The R's are done for now. The r34 was the last. The GT-R is what would be coming to the states, but it wouldn't be an RB26 drivetrain, which is a shame.

This is the new GT-R, tell me if you don't think the original is better,

 

[ArchiDanDisney]

And the tail lights, the one thing that says "HEY LOOK AT ME! I'M A SKYLINE!"

 

[ArchiDanDisney]

Oh and why not? Lets throw an STi in here for good measure.

Not really. Nissan just stopped producing the RB26-DETT engine with the RB25 drive train. Essentially and AWD TT. Now...the new engine is comparable to the old one, but I can garuntee it won't produce the same amount of power. Its not a true skyline either. Its just considered "the american" skyline.

hey Dan, how about the Midget?

 

[mkt]

or even better... Toppo!!
