I've heard that the Infiniti G35 coupe is the american equivalent of the Nissan Skyline in Japan. Anyone wanna confirm or dispute? I've heard this somewhere and was just curious. 9/1/2006 6:24:08 PM |

Um, yeah the current skyline in japan is basically identical to the US spec G35 sedan, and has the vq35 in it. I've never seen the 2 door v35 over there though. Anyways, what's so great about a skyline - most of them are just a 200 hp, non turbo, 2 wheel drive, 4 door family saloon car, not what you read about every night in super street. (The GTR is a different story, and if you buy a G35 you are in no way getting a BNR34 or something) You could have just gone to google and typed in skyline v35 (the r has since been replaced with a V, I assume since the skyline no longer comes with an RB20/25/26).

Here is a skyline:

They're the same blood, but a Skyline, even if it isn't a GTR looks fucking badass. I've seen some hot skylines since I've come over. 9/1/2006 7:51:22 PM |

That picture is a Skyline? It looks just like an 03 or 04 G35 with a Nissan Grill. It has the sports and premium package (rear seat headrests diff. from standard), but I've never seen a right drive G35.....

how many damn times does it have to be stated that the GT-R is entirely a separate model than the Skyline. 9/2/2006 10:34:12 AM |

I guess at least once more. Guys just see the word "skyline" in Need For Speed underground and SuperStreet and think it is some God of a car. 9/2/2006 10:49:16 AM |

THE NISSAN SKYLINE AND THE INFINITY G35 ARE THE SAME CAR. IN JAPAN ITS A SKYLINE, IN THE US ITS A G35.
why is that so hard for some people to understand?
