Default Skyline 3.5 GT????? Maybe its real, maybe its maybeline.

Way to work this morning, saw a silver car. Looked just like a Infiniti G35, with a body kit. When I got closer it said Skyline above the bumperline, had a nissan badge on it. Top right corner of the trunk had 3.5GT on it. Was standard left hand drive, wheels in the back where bigger then wheels in the front so I doubt it was all wheel drive. Didn't sound like it was a turbo either, but it was a real deep sound, dual exhausts. Real quick too, a lot faster then a 350z, don't know if it was real or just a kit that was put on the car to make it say skyline, it looked authentic. I snapped some pictures, but I am not sure if they came out good or no yet, I am at work if they came out good I will post them tonight.

I've seen more than one kitted G35 with Skyline badges on it, but that was only at shows.

The GT would be the V35 Skyline Coupe...he basically threw on some JDM badges on his G35. People need to understand that when the R34 Skyline was still out, there was another car in Japan called the 'Skyline Coupe.' It's the V35 or what we call the G35.

Well I pretty much figured it was just a badge kit, but it was very well done.
And it matched all the "2007 Skyline destined for U.S." pictures you see around.

Yes, but 3.5GT wouldn't be the upcoming GTR anyways...ahh, nevermind. And it's very possible and hopefully liked the GTR won't look like the G35 in anyway.

I think Nissan is making a bad choice with the design of the new skyline.

I think so, Have you seen the new supras and skylines? They are making them to "concept" looking, Taking away the whole starting look of them that made people interested.

That would be nice, My favorite is the R33. Theres this one blue one on this one site like exvitertimini.com or something that is awesome.
