I heard about that skyline, it is supposed to open up the US market to Nissan, I dont think the yanks are to keen on the little 2.5l engine, so the V8 will have more appeal.

Rumour has it that the engine originates from the R390

That's definitely a lot nicer than what they've decided to go with. As technical sound it may well end up being, it's a pig and a half to look at.

I blame Renault!

Just found out from a reliable Nissan source, the R35 Concept Pictures are just a concept. I'm feeling better about it already.
It still isn't decided whether the car is going to badged Skyline or just GTR.

WOWWOW! My French heart can't let this to be said! (even if it's true http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/smile.gif)

A positive point about the R35 to be launched on the American market is that it will be a left-drive model.
You lucky ones don't know your luck (yes?) to be able to drive (or just see... it's a 200SX forum http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/smile.gif) skylines on your roads...
It's something we don't know over there...
sniff...

Is it a dead cert that it would come to Europe though?

According to what I know (a very few things http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/smile.gif), the R35 will be released on the american market only...
But in 2087, maybe, Renault will remark that a left-drive car can be sold in Europe too...
Well, it's all market-based, of course.
I saw on an automotive site that only 2 S14 200SX where sold in France during year 2000 (yes, you read the right figure: 2!! TWO!!!!), (for 8 F360 modena! and dozens of thousands megane coupé...).

Yes, I agree with you all: French people are not like us... http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/wink.gif http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/smile.gif http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/wink.gif http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/smile.gif http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/wink.gif http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/smile.gif
