Who Is As Super Excited As Me About The Coming Of The (G)V37's?

[666DAN]

I've been living in a hole, but just saw the release date for both the coupe and hard-top convertible here will be December, only Big Kev would have been more excited (probably)

No doubt I'd be getting those grotty Infinit badges taken off, but wow haven't we come leaps and bounds with getting a few decent Nissan models at last!!!!!

I saw the hard-top 36's in the US and they were porntastic!

Makes me think of Hyundai J2 or a Jaguar. I think Skylines lost its touch after the R34 imo

I am also keen, when i eventually move to Brisbane i'll be going for a job there.

Also i would have to agree with you about removing the badges, i don't like the look of them much either

Damn my work computer filtering system i can't see the photo you posted.

hmm.. maybe, they are meant to be a different class of car to the R34.

I just can't bring myself to like the back of the R34.. the front looks awesome though!!

The back of my old R34 looked sweet with the custom brake lights, now and again I see it in Logan and nearly snap my neck to look, then realise it's my old car that I'm admiring haha

It's all about moving with the times. Courier lines and no boost is where it's at today - apparently. It's what people want in street cars.

[Seano350GT]

Agree with you on that one Tony, i especially love the R34 GTR front.. fap material right there.

[t5iv]

Not a fan. Love the 32 GTR.

[Seano350GT]

Gay. Yeah me too.

When it comes to the R series, I prefer the look of the R33 as an overall package.. I find the R32 looks too dated now. and the R34 seems like the designers tried too hard (except the front!!) The R34 GTR with the big chunky rear spoiler isn't my cup of tea..

[666DAN]

Maybe the reason I'm excited has something to do with 2 years of Skyline withdrawal......nuff said

I agree re hyundai look, esp rear end, YUK!!

G37 was nice, G35 also nice, but not this...

Nissan is releasing a new SSS Pulsar. 4cyl, turbo hatchback. 140kw.

possibly the worlds worst wheel Photoshop? Fark- I mean the front brakes are on the rear

Photo aside (obviously not a company pic)I can't help but think the management of this launch is not being taken seriously/professionally. I mean, it hasn't even had a whisper of coverage, and I see no infinitis driving round.

You would think they will only manufacture a certain # of them to see how sales go in the first 6 months given how the market is and the steep price tag they come with, then go from there. It should be interesting though.. I too have heard nothing but i live on the other side of the world..

The Skyline was intended to have an NA V6 from the R33 onwards.

Nissan should have dropped the Skyline Name then. When you say skyline, you think beast race car, not company fleet cars.

This. I could say that they retained an very light essence of the R series skylines (still should have dropped the name) with the tail lights and a bit of the shape but this officially ends the definition of "Skyline". I guess when it's my turn to have kids, they will look back at R series skylines as if they are classics like Datsun, and a Datsun like a flintsonemobile.

Haha that's off the Infiniti Australia website. They are going to have the coupes at the Sydney motor show. They're definitely out there, they started with the 4WDs late August. I saw two of the 5 litre V8's at Brisbane airport today in the carpark..

I disagree.. when you say GT-R, you think beast race car. The skyline name on its own has been quite varied over the years.. After all there was a Australian Built R31 Sedan and wagon that would hardly fit into the 'race car' catergory and more into the 'company fleet cars', and family wagons.

There were far more R series skylines that I wouldn't consider in the class of 'race car', fitted with RB20DE, RB25DE engines.. or the stock turbo versions of each which still produced less power and torque than the VQ35DE in the V35.
