The test car is a V8, production is supposed to be the 35 V6 biturbo.

Looks like **** to me. Looks like a revised G35. Sucks.

Hopefully this car will be more about performance rather than looks, I dont think it looks that bad. I bet it will grow on people.

I agree with "the grow on people". I didn't like the new 350-Z when IT first came out , but now I don't mind it. Still wouldn't buy it.....it didn't move me enough and I've driven Datsuns all my life. Turbo S30's.....not the later Nissan stuff, except for a Maxima for a few years.
I Love the R34 GT-R........so much I bought the full awd drivetrain to stuff into a early 240-Z chasiss.:D
But thats another story.Back to the Skyline..........Its definatly aimed at video generation and not so much guys as old I am....mid 40's.
But....I will add, driving a turbocharged awd daily driver every day has proven to me at least, that there's not much out there for the price thats better ..."bang for the buck wise".
I bet it will be one of the MOST asked to be test driven cars to hit U.S. soil since the introduction of the first Datsun 240-Z though!!:)

Giffy no likey. The front kills it for me. Rear is ok. Profile is good until the front fender.

That front end looks like serious ass. IT almost looks like something is missing from it... like... a grille! :D From a distance its like a huge gaping hole where something should be.

They shoulda stuck with a moderned up version of the R34 model for a front facia.

Yep 350z combined with G35...
What were they thinking? It will appeal to the asian 350z drivers, which is so stereotypical nowadays.

My verdict...
Ugly.
