9000 RPM redline ed:

personally, i don't really like it. maybe it's the white color. It may have some more potential in a different color.

New Skyline! rock:
NOTE:This is not what the GT-R will look like. In order to test possible drivetrain/powertrain combinations and all that good stuff, Nissan has jerry-rigged a G35 to accept the GT-R's drivetrain. So yes, if you were wondering why the car in the picture looks like a G35, it is because it is a G35.
What Edmunds.com Says: It may end up wearing an Infiniti badge, but this next generation Skyline should have all the attitude of its Nissan cousins.
What We Know: After years of rumors and intense lobbying by Nissan enthusiasts in the U.S., Nissan chief Carlos Ghosn announced that his company plans to release a fully redesigned version of the legendary Skyline GT-R by 2007. The new version will take its cues from the GT-R concept car that has made the rounds at various auto shows over the past several years, and unlike its predecessor the GT-R will make its way to the U.S. With the 350Z already occupying a steady spot in Nissan's lineup, look for the GT-R to come Stateside wearing an Infiniti badge. A prototype caught testing on Germany's grueling Nurburgring test track made the rounds wearing the shell of a current G35, but obvious signs of serious modifications indicate it was no ordinary Infiniti. The car is expected to debut at the Tokyo Motor Show in the fall of 2007 and go on sale later that year.

Technically the current G35 is the new Skyline.

I like hte RX8 and I like STI's however, that sti looks too much like a neon. The ront should be a little flatter and sharper and not as blunt and round.
