check it out http://www.autofiend.com/images/articles/r35%201.jpg (Nissan/Japan version shown)

The car will most likely sell around $50,000 and will have a twin turbo v6.

SLICK. That's based on the Nissan GT-R concept from a year or two ago. Very nice.

So basically it's the next-gen Skyline, eh? I could deal with one of those (I almost said "I could see myself in one of those", but then I looked at the picture and decided that's a poor choice of words in this crowd ).

The R35 is going to be another fast and great handling car that sells for around $50,000. I guess infiniti has finally realized they need something to compete against Vettes, Porsches, and AMG Mercedes.

Just what the world needs, another overpriced car for some old guy to drive around and pretend that he is young again.

While it has been said the that youthful energy is waisted on the young, it can also be said that fast cars are waisted on the old

Part of that picture looks fake to me, besides the driver. something about the bottom especially looks photoshopped. also look at the three squar intakes under the light on each side. to me, atleast, it doesnt look real. Another thing, do you know if it is coming to the US? because the maximum power in Japan is 280 hp for factory cars. so probably not 380+hp . I would alsp hope to God that they could pump out more than that in a TT V6 . something doesnt seem right there, plus if the (if ther is) US version of it does have that power, will it be infinity or nissan. Personally i hope Nissan.
IMO the stylng in general iss way too round to be a skyline. but then again, the G35 is called the skyline in japan, so who knows?

Whether that's the future Infiniti Skyline or not, once it his US roads, I would be very scared of it. It's going to be an awesome performer. I keep hearing rumors that they will be going after Porsche 911's with it.
