Default Nissan Skyline GTR prototype

http://www.gtrproto.com/

i think it looks better then the first concept but im not feelin the headlights though

i just wonder wut kind of engine and power is gonna be in there
i wonder if they gonna keep using the RB serise or are they gonna go wit the VQ
or something different
i hear rumors they are preping the skyline GT-R to take on be the Porsche Carrera Turbo

i love skylines from 32 to 34 and i hope this one wont disapoint
they might even bring this one to the states hopefully

I like the back of it but, I will have to agree with you one the front. It also looks like it shares to much with the curent 350Z.

Its ugly... The Supra design looks much nicer. Still not convinced that will be the final design... Why are they still calling it a concept? At the end of the day, its gonna be a souped up G35

Which isn't such a bad idea. If they sharpen a few angles on the G35 and put real Skyline muscle in it - they will have a runaway seller on their hands. They've already got Panda calling it a 911Turbo killer. Imagine what the ricer community would do. There would be a ton of G35s and 350Zs for sale the moment they announced this thing was coming to the US - even if they don't fix that fugly front end.

Read a press release saying it was going to be a 450HP Turbo (I think twin) 3.7 V6.

All that's left now is to ready the reams of paper used to sell all of those G35s and 350Zs.

At first I didn't like it, but I looked at it again and I dunno it kinda grew on me. Still more of a fan of the new Supra. Althought it ticks me off that they are making it more of a super car than a normal everybody can afford type car. Well not everybody, but I think you catch my drift.

MkIV Supra's are sex.
R34's are sex.
The new Skyline is not sex.
(I haven't seen the new Supra)
