It’s not about what you see, its about what you dont see under the body.

What are you talking about ? This looks just like the Test Mule seen doing laps at the ring. If you had read what was posted on the link you would have seen that there is only the “one lousy pic” as the car left after this pic was taken at great speed.

True but the picture doesn’t tell me what’s under the skin. It’s all speculation until an authority gives us the real information.

That is true, it’s also the worst part about being a fan of the GTR not knowing whats under the skin

Uhmm … isn’t the new Skyline a whole new car?

Wasn’t that the whole big deal with the unveiling and release they did for it last year?

![http://www.garyperez.com/skyline.jpg](http://www.garyperez.com/skyline.jpg)

And they released the specs at the 2005 TAS saying it would be released 2007.

We did a feature on it right after, according to Nissan;

3.6L VQ36DETT, with twin VNT(variable nozzle technology) IHI turbos projected 450-hp.

7 speed paddle shifted manual, ATTESA, HICAS,

Nissan said they would release it here, under the Inifiniti badge … so I really hope this isn’t it.

If all they did was destroy the body lines of a G35 by making it look like an Aztek, that’s a total rip. It doesn’t even have the Skyline taillights!
