not counting the 2007 yet

Are you talking about GT-R's? Because the Skyline has been selling in the US for several years now (as the Infinity G35).

I dont think the g35 is the same car as the one were talking about. were talking about the rb26 powered awd one...

[Supra2NR]

I dont think the g35 is the same car as the one were talking about. were talking about the rb26 powered awd one...

the g35 is the american skyline, which is gay
hate that car

no skylines were sold directly to america up to the r34 awd version
but the r35, (not the g35), is now ready for purchase in the united states

i used to love the r34, but now, its like it is a sell-out,
it doesnt have the race look anymore, doesnt even have the rb26 powerplant
whats the deal? i think thats the last inline6 from nissan

now they jus got it powered by a vq 3.5 twin turbo, they might as well sell 350z then,
hopefully, when the by the time that new supra comes to the u.s. ,
hopefully, the japs havent lost that flavor that made the supra the we know and love

i know someone already established this statement but it was directed toward me so i have to give it my input. the Infiniti g35 is much different than the skyline. sure they come from the same company but an g35 is not a skyline. just because it is called things like the skylines brother, the U.S, sold skyline whatever doesnt give it rights to use the name skyline.

just like the 240sx and the silvia...people call them the same car(yes i know they are alike in many ways) but theyre not. totally different cars

same with the skyline and g35...


im just sayin dont call the g35 a skyline call it a g35.

[Isphius]

Yes, But the 240 is just the hatchback version of the silvia. Its the same chassis and drivetrain. The g35 and skyline(whatever its called) are truly totally different.

Toyota will probably never make a sports car again, because there is no market for them. Everyone wants gas savers/hybrids and SUVs and trucks and luxury cars. I own the last toyota sports car though! yay for mr2 spyder.

[mkIIIdraper]

I think that the new car will be made, but not sold. I also think that it will be called something other than Supra. the engine is all wrong and its not turbo!

[Caliturbo88]

I dont get why people care about gas so much. What i mean by that is a lot of people buy tundras and tacoma that get not so good mileage(especially the new 5.7 ). If you throw that same motor in a car people get all butt hurt about paying for bad gas mileage. I say they make it and come out in full force, throw the new 5.7 with a 6 speed manual or 6 speed auto in it with a supercharger and SMOKE the gt mustangs away.It time one of the largest car manufactures makes something besides ugly hybrids and ford/chevy/dodge looking trucks(new tundra looks that way) Then when nissan tries to copy them liek everything else, they will come out with another piece of junk like the 350z.

Its a Hybrid , I wouldn't buy it if I even if I had the money, well if I did I would pull the engine and put in a 2jz-gte, but wiring would be a nightmare.
