That front end is hideous man.....

[forkee]

wow...

the back reminds me of a cobalt, headlights look 7gc-ish, hood/front bumper reminds me of s2000.

Can't be anywhere near as hideous as the older versions do. I know I'm getting flamed for that but besides what's under the hood, the previous Skylines are ugly. I'd take a Supra over a Skyline any day(And let the flaming begin!).

[darksecret]

The old Skyline's were boxy compared to their competition, but they were mean looking and that was a major part of the charm, Nissan is just following in the LF-A's footsteps with this. I could see the rear making production but the front has got to go, and i've said it a million times if Nissan uses the 350Z chassis in any way then the Skyline will lose any credit it has, it'll be a Z car even if they called it a Skyline GT-R AWD Twin Turbo Super King and slapped red badges all over it, it'll still be a modded Z, it's ass backwards compared to when Toyota seperated the Supra and Celica.

They're planning on selling them in U.S. with (Est. 450hp, $60k ~ $70k)
but it will sold as Infiniti not Nissan (Just the fact that Nissan's service will not match the quality for Skyline)

Hmm stating the fast that Skyline is uses a Z based chassis, So basicly 94 ~ 97 Toyota Celica to 94 ~ 97 Toyota Camry uses what ?????
Celica & Supra seperated ? Celica was based on Supra if you go along way of history of Celica.
Sorry to say but I would take any Nissan or Infiniti over Toyota's old men styling cars.

I thought the Supra was actually an upgraded model from the Celica originally (the first Celica Supra).

It was.

[Jen]

I have to disagree with everyone.. I love it..

[vangSTa_celica]

The front looks fugly, but the rest is ok.

[LewFX]

its hawt.

[orvillescelica]

the front looks strange i admit, but i think they are trying to show off the carbon fiber bits on the front bumper. If you painted those black parts the same color as the body, im sure it will look better.

The Celica came first, then Toyota decided in the mid 80's to make a modded version called the CelicaSupra it lasted two generations and became just the Supra Turbo and the Celica, kind of like a spin off. The new Skyline concepts are being based on a Z chassis, which would have been cool if the Skyline wasn't already held above the Z, now Nissan is just saying they're basically the same thing. The Celica and Camry are two totally different cars and only our versions have anything close to do with a Camry. Bottom line the Skyline isn't a Z car it's a Red Badge car, Nissan should keep it that way. Also consider this if they make it, then just save yourself $20,000 and buy a 350 and mod the hell out of it, that's basically what Nissan did and you'll get more than the 500hp or so you'll get out the new Skyline.

front end is questionable.. lights (tails and headlights) are freakin awesome, overall great styling

[Consynx]

you guys are nuts
this car is amazingly sick
the ONLY bad thing i know about it so far is the price tag.

damn hott.

[vangSTa_celica]

Well, I decided to make a slight modification to it that made me quite happy. I just made the black underneath the headlight the same color as the body. I like it alot more this way.

Don't flame dudes and dudettes, I did this in MSPaint



The top is my version.

Not bad but now it looks like an S2000.

[Sh0gunkid8721]

i think it looks better

[beastman]

I am kinda inbetween on the look of it. I thought orignally it was going to look more like a G35 than a whole new car. The headlights look like there from the 350Z, but that back end is sexay!!! It is a step foward for nissan even though i love the style of the R34 skyline

[95CelicaST]

I like the styling. I am happy to see the trademark tails came back. Nissan's first big mistake: killing old body style. Nissan shooting themselves in the foot: scrapping round tails.

The front bumper is questionable. Other than that I love the way it looks. I'd buy if I had money.

[Project95St202]

How about red with gold rims ?
