Looks cack. This can’t be the “real” skyline for the western market.

Edit. Ah. Japan only

I don't think any skyline outside of GT or GTR spec has been particularly desirable. It's a run of the mill japanese saloon.

Like the new Supra, it just seems a bit....meh and I would rather buy a classic one. I don't care if it isn't as fast.

 

[Stephanie Peterson]

There has been a skyline for ... ages...
What we need to see is the new GTR.

 

[kaku]

Basically an evolution of the Skyline 350GT - ugly and boring.
New GTR or new Z-car would pique some interest though.

Like an R34?

Even without the GT trim it looks better than the modern Nissans.

deffo not what I was expecting lol

Looks a bit like a mazda 6 on that rear pic haha

 

[Finglonga]

Looks like a Jag and a Mazda had a one night stand.

Ugly, I wouldn't call it boring though. The 3 litre is quite an entertaining engine

 

[Yaayuh!]

Any news on a new Z?

Indeed.

Indeed.

370Z still has at least a couple of years left in it before they replace it

Glad I'm not the only one who got that impression.

 

[[TW]Fox]

'New'? The Q50 has been around years!

 

[Building Candy]

No, he means like an R34

lol

 

[Steedie]

The wrong link opens for me, I get an article about the new XE?

I realise this and I hope you took my post to be tongue in cheek. People conveniently seem to forget, or are ignorant to, the fact that the Skyline isn't a performance car, just has performance variants.

It's like complaining about the appearance of the BMW M3, based on a photo of a beige BMW 318se with steel wheels.

Clickbait thread titles will do that to you!
