GT-R revealed
Check out pics of the new Infiniti GT-R (aka skyline). Just released as part of the Tokyo Motorshow.

I dunno. It looks like Colt from the back (urgh), sort of a mustang on the side (not the good ones either) and the front...um, what the heck happened there? I liked the skyline and always wondered why they didn't make ones for us Canucks, and now I see this. It's like Mitsubhshi Eclipse...what were they thinking, er, again?

Momentum Keeps Me Going
Maybe I've just got RX-8s on my mind, but doesn't this look in some views (esp front side ones) for all the world like a two-seater 8 w/mods all over? Trouble is it's way to busy and chunked up...nevertheless interesting 
esp. if it had say 400RWH

you know what Spin9k, I think I got an rx8 brain too. The front end is very reminiscent of the 8. Even down to the fender and air vents. Some of the lines remind me of the 8 as well. Still a nice looking car but I prefer the older versions where they were more boxy and angry looking.
:p

THATS GORGEOUS!!!
if they bring that here...it would severely conflict with the 350Z... esp at 400RWP.. i just hope they dont rebadge it and call it the new infiniti g35!..
On the otherhand, my guess is its going to too expensive to conflict with the 350..and only the wealthy 16yr old asian kids will be able to afford it

LOL, why do people think that every car released looks like the RX-8 now? Anyway, I hear that the new Skyline will be around $80,000 and not coming to US shores. I heard this on the Internet so it is probably fake but who knows?

The roof line bugs me a little, but I really just hate the front end treatment, the rest is pretty nice. If they would use body color instead of black (carbon?) on the front bumper it would look much better. The Darth Vader nose and Alice Cooper headlights just aren't my thing. The solution could be to just pick black as ones color choice, then all would be good.

If they ever make the next generation Aztek, the same delusional people will still say it looks like god's chariot.

They both have rear wheels, windows, a body, probably some seats in the Nissan too, ummm what else, steering wheel, exhaust. Okay, I have to stop, I could go on forever!
In short, No.
