i didnt read all the post but heres my input...what do u think it will cost more? INFINITI skyline GT-R or NISSAN skyline GT-R?? ofcourse the infiniti gonna cost more and if they are all into the money business, its gonna be INFINITI.   the badge makes alot of difference to the price

Replying to: jord533 (Jun 14, 2005 5:32 pm) I saw an Infinti-badged car with "Skyline" on the back last week in Honolulu. I thought it was a G35 before I saw the name. Makes me wonder if someone just debadged as thenebean suggested. Replies to this message: thenebean (Jun 30, 2005 10:18 am) sijohn (Aug 03, 2005 1:37 pm) eddie2310 (Sep 21, 2005 1:18 pm)

Replying to: docnukem (Jun 30, 2005 10:15 am) in japan, the G35 is marketed as the nissan skyline 350GT (not GTR) - you'll find a few people here in the states (and i saw one the other day) who will de-badge their infiniti G35 and put the "skyline 350GT" badge on there.   -thene

Replying to: jord533 (Jun 14, 2005 5:32 pm) I am with you jord! I swear I saw an Infiniti with bodywork almost identical to the one pictured in the spy shots! Spoiler, Dual Exhausts, everything! I am too young to be going senile! Only I saw this one in the state of Maryland, why it would be their and not sporting the trash bag look is beyond me, so It must not have been one. If anyone else reports this however we must start a sighting's forum! lol   And I am with some other people: if they decide to stick anything but a twin 6 under that hood I will be sooo disappointed. Especially with the success of the Evo and STi (not TT's but you get the idea): JAPAN: WE WANT SOME NICE SPORTY CARS THAT ARE INSANELY FAST! It's definitely a valid argument to say it will be an Infiniti due to the 350z. If the GTR gets its twins and sells well, who knows: may be the 350 will adopt a similar engine (probably the same one just tweaked)? That could be their plan, test the waters then deploy to other cars. Replies to this message: thenebean (Jul 07, 2005 5:19 am)

Replying to: yifflover_69 (Jul 06, 2005 5:58 pm) i still wanna say that the skyline will be a nissan over here - ive read reports that its still up in the air - but i just know that the infinti skyline will not have the same pull as the nissan skyline - since that is what people know it as. its not a luxury car, its a performance car.   we'll see though! whatever it is, i cant wait! im gonna start saving my pennies now!   -thene

the new skyline has been undecided as to if it will be nissan or infiniti...no word on the engine (V6, V8, turbo, or natually aspirated) and wont look like the original skyline or the new g35...it should be avaliable in 2007...the g35's just swapped the badges to say skyline on em..i thught the same thing at first until i looked closer...

Hi, All: First time here. Almost bought G35, and still am a fan of GT-R. I might buy one someday. Enjoy the photo. Could be photo-shopped, but it just surfaced on a Japanese site.   http://response.jp/issue/2005/0726/article72836_1.images/90728.html Replies to this message: thenebean (Jul 26, 2005 9:22 am)

Replying to: ceric (Jul 26, 2005 12:42 am) interesting picture - looks like a much meaner 350Z/G35 - could be an artists rendition of what they are thinking based on previous concepts, etc...   i guess we'll see this fall - its supposed to be unveiled at tokyo i think?   -thene

Replying to: docnukem (Jun 30, 2005 10:15 am) I have twice seen a black on black G35 shaped car on roads North of and East of Seattle. A bit more aggessive than stock, but less than the Skyline GT-R pictures I've seen. Gold letters spelling SKYLINE in place of the INFINITI and a GT insignia on the lower right corner - on the trunk. No other markings. Debadged or whatever, he was smiling - even in heavy commuter traffic.
#60 of 269 Some facts you could put money on by fredzy Aug 03, 2005 (9:00 pm)
The next GT-R (R36) will not see U.S. soil until late 08. It will be unveiled Fall 07 in Japan.   It will be sold in the U.S. as a Nissan, their Halo Vehicle, and bear absolutely no resemblance to the G35 Coupe (V35 Skyline). The Infinity G35 will become something else, replaced with the R36 chassis - and continue to fill the luxury/sport niche. The Z33 (350Z) will maintain its position at nissan as a sporty coupe/roadster - by no means a supercar or flagship. That is the role of the GT-R.   The final production engine may be either 3 to 3.5 liters, V6 twin-turbo. No large N/A V8's were ever considered. The large V8 option is unnecessary and unfeasable in this application.   It may cost over $80,000.
