Is the Skyline out yet?

The other day I saw what appeared to be a really "muscle-y" Infiniti G-coupe but as I got closer, I saw the Nissan and Skyline badging on it.

The Skyline has been out for a while Brian... it's called the Infiniti G35.

If you're talking about the GT-R on the other hand, not likely it's not at all impossible that someone may have slapped a bodykit and JDM badging on a G35 coupe.

This is what the GT-R looks like from the rear quarter, completely different from a Nissan G

Nope, that's definitely not what I saw.

They're separating the two... the Skyline and GT-R are different models now. The GTO was originally a spec/trim level on a Tempest, and the Supra was originally a hot Celica The difference is that both of those were sold in the US market, whereas the US was not introduced to the Skyline officially.

There are several rebadged G35's in Orlando with full JDM Nissan Skyline badging. Funnily enough, in Japan, where the Infiniti brand isn't sold, some people to add a certain level of prestige, will rebadge their Skyline as an Infiniti G35. The same for a lot of JDM V35 Skylines imported to the UK/Ireland, they get rebadged as Infiniti G35's.

The Infiniti G35/37 has been sold as a V35 Skyline in Japan since its inception. The G20 was the previous generation Nissan Primera in world markets

Good god, it must have been exotic car day today... 2 Bentleys, Porsche GT3, Maserati Quattroporte Sport GT, Saleen S7, Mercedes SLR MacLaren, Ferrari 360, Panoz Roadster, Panoz Esperante, and a random AMG Mercedes.

Wow. What beautiful cars.

Do you know if they're on schedule and when the first cars are supposed to be coming off the line?

 

[WDWFREAK53]

I heart the Panoz roadster. I have loved that car since the first time I laid eyes on it!

I see a TON of Quattroportes around here...and new Bentley Coupes. (Seriously, I see as many Bentley's as I do Solstice's and Z's)

that's freaking ridiculous

 

[WDWFREAK53]

Wow...that's insane.

So, everybody is saying, "Go Green" but when you do...you lose the green out of your pocket. Yeah, real nice...where's the motivation to make the leap to go green?

I finally got around to getting that new car and I ended up choosing the Mazda3. Now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure the Honda Fit wouldn't have really "fit" me as well as this car does. My only concern is the black interior, especially since I'm moving down to Orlando this fall.

Something similar happened up here in Jacksonville probably 15-20 years ago. The abandoned air strips at the Imeson Airport on the north side of Jacksonville were a popular place for weekend drag racing. In this particular incident an old Camaro suffered some sort of mechanical failure and took a sharp turn into the spectators.
