I am desperately searching thru my Dad's auto mags of this month to find the article he was describing. It supposively said that Nissan is going to counter Toyota's release of a supercar in 2005 with it's bringing of the Skyline to the US in 2007. Is this true?

They are recognizing a loss they had with the newer Celica's and deciding instead of trying and getting some of that market back, they want to concentrate on what they do best with the actual Toyota line and that's build reliable cars. The Lexus name is Toyota's showcase of performance. But, as we all read in the post about the Celica leaving, a new car will replace it. I'm guessing something performance oriented.
