I don't believe it was the model name, more like a line within a model. I wanna say 54 or so, Bel Air maybe. I just can't recall, and if I'm wrong. Don't think I am though, I could swear there was one (Bel Air Skyline ). Do I have to spell it right? Is it really required of me? Does everyone spell Camaro right?

Generally if you can't even spell the name of a car company even remotely correctly then you might not really have enough substantiated knowledge about that car company to be rightfully critisizing them with such blunt generalizations. Unless of course you can just admit your opinions are filled with nothing but black and white blind bias. Then everyone will understand they can just ignore you since you're just talking to yourself, trying to make yourself feel better.

Ever think maybe, I actually know how to spell nissan, but was merely trying to get a rise out of some nison. And for someone who says to ignore me you certainly seem to know exactly how I spell things.

49-52 Styleline. In 1951, it was the top seller.

No. You didn't know how to spell it. Period. If you wanted to spell it improperly you would have done it with a more emphatic meaning, or at least I'd hope. nison means nothing at all.

Rice Burner is a much better term.

OK would you really take too much heart into someone's opinion of a the Chevy Corvette if they said something like

"The Shevvy Coorvate is a big POS lololol"





If I'm getting on nerves here I'll quit. Just wanted to point out that yet again too many people here seem to state 'absolute' opinions, yet when you pay attention to the details it becomes apparent that they know little more about the entire company they're critisizing other than the fact that "they don't like 'em".

Re: New Nissan GTR (skyline)

I hate the roofline, but I actually like the main body and the headlights . Everybody knows that this will probably be expensive, most likely powerful, and definitely eye catching (good or bad). However, what this car will be officially (as far as performance and price go) is unknown, because there are still a lot of details about the car that are unknown. So I am not sure what the arguing is about and frankly I am not reading this whole thread to just to see.

I wouldn't own one (not my style), even if I could afford it, but I wouldn't be against seeing it on the road and I am definitely interested to see the specs on it.

There was no BelAir Skyline ever made. Maybe you are thinking about the 1958 Ford Fairlane Skyliner??
