The new GTR is just that..GTR, its not gonna be called a Skyline or R35 Skyline GTR like the other GT-Rs used to be, it shares the same chassis with the z33 "350z in US" and vq35 skyline "g35 in US", but thats it, its a "one off" car and is (for some reason) only going to be dubbed the Nissan GT-R, i really wish that it would still come with the Skyline GT-R badge that the older generations had, but i read in a SCC magazine that nissan wanted it to be its own car and have no ties to Skyline's...
Its kind of grown on me. When you look at the Skylines over the years, none have been beautiful in shape in an elegant sense. Its more brutal styling that's made it cool.
But I do agree Sports Car Design needs to revisit the 50's 60's and early 70's that's when cars were truely beautiful.
i don't get it, i think the car looks amazing, even here when before i didn't like it in white i thought it was surprisingly awesome looking
I've also heard (like all the previous skylines) that it looks way better in person.
But when i first saw it i didn't think it was as great looking either, though that was partly because it didn't look as much like the Skyline GTRs before it.
Wow...you people are retards. Don't you see the little dot after the "r" in gt-r, thats called a period, its used to separate thoughts or sentences as in "its the gt-r [DOT] infiniti has taken....". "infiniti" was the start of a new thought/sentence as defined by the dot...properly called the period.
its still a skyline dip stick...thats y its called the r35...and thats y it still has some of the same styles as previous skylines...ex the tail lights...those are known for the skyline...its a nissan skyline gtr r35...every skyline fan knows it....k thanks bye dont reply cuz i aint gonna argue with a kid
Wow, you have no idea what you're talking about. The car in this video is the Nissan R35 GT-R. IT IS NOT A SKYLINE.
SKYLINE AND GT-R ARE NO LONGER THE SAME OR ASSOCIATED. The last Skyline GT-R was the R34. And it is the last. There is a new Skyline out, but it has nothing to do with this GT-R, or any further GT-R's.
So I guess your not a true Skyline fan then? Get your facts straight before you talk shit you total wanker.
It must be school holidays somewhere in the world.
just becuase they dont call it a skyline doesnt mean its not a skyline...everyone knows its the next skyline simple logic...go ahead and act tough behind the pc i dont give...good way to boost ur lil ego...but like i said....simple logic -> its the next skyline
Um, lol? That is not logic. It is not a Skyline. That is fact. It will never be a Skyline and it's not intended to be a Skyline. It may be the Skyline's successor as Nissan's flagship performance/touring car, but that does not make it a Skyline.
Just informing people correctly not trying to boost an ego on youtube mate. This is me boosting my ego: I own a Skyline GT-R and you do not.
anybody can say they own a skyline over internet...just like i own a toyota supra...cant believe...w/e its a skyline to me and it will be a skyline donno bout u but it is a skyline....logic i was referring to my previous post
gtr is still da skyline emblem and da car still has da skyline features.the previous skylines were jpnse kings.this is da new king an its still the skyline.u people think just b/c da "skyline" is not in da name of the car that its not a skyline.skyline means more then a name an japan and still lives within da nissan gtr.
n lets see..r32 was a skyline r33 was a skyline r34 was a skyline...hmm obvious conclusion r35 is a skyline. if its total diff car then y it still has skyline resembelnce in it
I can guarantee you that, when my GTR shows up in June, it will not say Skyline anywhere. Skyline is now it's own model (the G35, as it's called in the US). You can not say in any way that the G35 is anything like the GTR, so, apparently, they are now becoming two different brands.
according to you people..its not a skyline becuase its called an infiniti g35 (in america)...theres no skyline in it so therefore its not a skyline according to ur definition of a skyline.
but yes i know...the inifity is an american version of the skyline which is not the same
the Nissan Gt-r is more closely related the other skys in looks and reputation
nissan skyline 350gt is nothing like the other skys...but the nissan gt-r is
I am tired of arguing with you. Believe whatever you want. I understand the GT-R's bloodlines, and I know that all previous models were Skylines, but now that Nissan is finally bringing the car to the US, they had to rebrand the car so as not to cause any confusion. It would most definitely have been a Skyline GT-R if they would have sold it as an Infiniti (which they nearly did, except NA Infiniti could not convince Nissan that there would be any benefit to it being badged as an Infiniti).
people will still be calling it a skyline R35 whether you like it or not. Because that is essentially what it is. Nobody cares about current american capitalism.
Best technology out there! Simply Amazing. Apart from being a whippingly fast AT car, its AT transmission can be graceful too. It is capable of going 60km/h in the sixth gear. An intelligent car that cruises and races well. Currently, no car companies have this technology. The closest to it is the Honda's grade logic gearing.
Watch the Edmunds video with the red Skyline....that should clear up some doubts :) Yes, it doesn't have the brand recognition of lets say a Porsche but this car is still amazing.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Uh..the vettes had those tailights long before the japs so u might want to try that argument somewhere else..and a z06 will toast it not to mention the new Blue Devil vette lol..And the front of the r35 is fucking ugly..should have used the old nose, much more skyline looking.
4wd and 500bhp, i doubt it would beat a vette round the track, but i guess you mean in a straight line? Well, still it would be close if not a win for the gtr.
Wrong. I haven't seen anything stating that the GT-R is approaching anywhere close to the Z06's trap speeds of 125-128mph. It's not toughing the Z06 in straightline stock for stock. We still haven't seen it face the Z06 on any American tracks yet either.
Hey. Dont write such selfish comments. Every car has its hits and misses. The Skyline is not that bad. Afterall, it is a good effort by a company that is mostly known for manufacturing family cars. I'm pretty sure that the Checy has its pros and cons too
lol a prelude you gay ur fukin gay the gtr owns why would they just change the lines of a r34 that defeats the whole purpose of designing a new modle form sctrach, to mer it looks nice n modern sure it doesnt havem uch resemblance the r34 skyline but thats because err its not a skyline its jsut a gtr its not even built of the smae platform as the skyline ...noob
Do you have eyes you faget? CHEVY stole the GTRs tail lights, and has been doing it you fag. For example the last impala, stole the GTR's rear tail lights, and so did the Gay ass cobalt. In the front, don't disgrace it by comparing it to a toyota or even worse a Chevy.
thank you for saying that, a fuckin Colbalt?? in Asia, they prolly slap Justin for saying that. Nissan has the BEST TECHNOLOGY out there! and NOBODYELSE doesn't even come close, bet on it kid.
actually nissan has amazing technology...but...i hate to say this i think lexus has better technology...their tech always suprising me...auto parrallel parking...8gear transmision...they know how to do their homework
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
you don't think the overall shape is similar to the new model celica's? the back of the gtr looks similar to that of a FTO. the front looks similar to a prelude. All im sayin is they should've just altered the 34 shape
if they had altered the r34's shape it would just be the new skyline, this is a complete new car, and if your going to say it looks like a celica, then you dont know cars m8, if anything the front reminds me of the 350z and the back reminds me of the skyline.

The name of the skyline was left for the G35 model.
Because skyline G35 was not thought as a base as for R35 GT-R.
R35 GT-R is a race machine of the oncoming generation that came into existence
to win the race.
It will be able to be said that it is a car that revives the samurai spirit of
Nissan from old times.

g35 is short for GT350 wich is a skyline
in japan,japan makes nissan therefor americans can call it what'ever they like
