^I don't know... but I think I want one. Anyone looking to buy or sell about 20 houses I'm not sold 100% on the styling, but I still love the idea of owning a skyline.

GTR = 350z body kit


Is it just me or has the GTR lost that sleek/mean/hug the ground feeling? Looking at those pics the frist thing I said drop that thing an inch or two THEN we'll talk. Maybe its just bad angling on the pic

I would have to agree with you. the rear looks like a cobalt. The black lip around the bottom gives the illusion of more space between the car and the ground. The roms they stole off of the Mirano scream SUV. Is this a street car or a cossover?

as for the GTR i can see that black band giving that illusion but check out the wheel wells, there looks to be very little room to drop it but i am sure anything is possibly, yeah the rims have to go but they are 20's baller!

HEY!!!!!!! how many people can even add fractions - let alone being able to read these posts, type replies, while simultaneously watching a class of 35 students and giving a lecture on common denominators!

ENGLISH SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (j/k that what math teachers are SUPPOSED to say)
