>Nissan says new Skyline debuts this winter and goes on sale next yearWhat are your expectations? I hope it looks better than the shit Ai renders going around. Since it is coming out so soon, I can only expect this to be the same refresh++ of the v37 like how the Z is for the 370z Also I hope they just call it the skyline rather than the Q50.
>>28988362Well considering how much of an epic failure the 400Z is I'm expecting the same for this thing. I can see it being inferior to a base model C8 at 2-3x the cost.
>>28988364In your dreams, cocksucker. An R35 already blows the doors off a base C8.
>>28988366>An R35 already blows the doors off a base C8.In what alternate universe? A 4cyl Camaro or Mustang completely destroys a R35 on a track and when it comes to driving feel.
>>28988364The Z is a better seller now than it was due to nissan changing allocations. Dealers can get 10 and then charge 80k for the base model anymore, and the death of the BMsupra helped. If the car is called "skyline" then it absolutly will be overcharged
>>28988370Nice troll attempt. The GTR is the Japanese king of the track and in a drag race, you aren't beating 600 turbo horsies at 1800 kg.
>>28988362>I hope it looks better than the shit Ai renders going around.It won't. It'll be a CUV shaped egg just like the crossover it must be based on because Nissan doesn't have the financial strength for a single-model coupe and nothing but crossovers sell. Same with the interior. It'll be screens everywhere be screens sell while aircraft inspired cockpits give buyers (read: women) the ick.
>>28988396You are almost a year late. Nissan already said it's a sedan here is from the teaser along with the pics in OP. It will probably be a v37++ sedan
>>28988364400Z was a pretty decent facelift, just not priced or tuned competitively.It should be an improvement over this thing at least.
>>28988366Yeah but that's a terrible comparison because a base C8 starts at like 65k and a GTR starts at 120k.
>>28988410Of course a better car is gonna be more expensive. Price for performance.
>>28988362I bet it will make the Ferrari Luce look like the Ferrari 250 GTO in comparison.
>>28988362I hope it has as much of an impact as when the R35 came out and that they make enough of them to sell.
>>28988366this car has nothing to do with the R35 GT-Rit's a replacement for their luxury/sport sedan the infiniti Q50
>>28988362I like the Skyline badge on the rear.
I'm excited for it. It's confirmed it's a sedan, it's confirmed there will be a manual transmission option, and it's all but confirmed it will be using most of the V37 chassis which is good. There's a lot of parts from Nissans catalogue that really update the V37 and make it competitive against the big dogs even though a lot of it never was installed. It's confirmed that the GT-R brake package will fit in a RZ34 Nismo (fork of V37). The bones are there for greatness. If it's as good as I'm hoping it is, I may sell my 500hp Q50 that I have currently and buy it.
>>28988364400z mogs
>>28988362>le thin angry headlightsit's over
>>28988362It'll just be a Q50 with a 9 speed and tablets inside
>>28988445But is the best way to demonstrate a cars performance capabilities to compare it against cheaper cars that obviously performance worse? Would it make sense for Ferrari to benchmark their newest V12 supercar against a Corolla?
>>28988397>hey guize remember OLD THING?>well....NEW THING NEXT TO OLD THING
>>28988362R35 with a new shell, big tablet in the interior and a little bit more boost.
>>28988362>everyone conflating this to the R35 GTRThis is a successor to the Skyline, not the GTR as they're now two separate things. If they were cool about it they'd finally badge it as such in the US and sell off the name alone. Rumors are that this one is going to be offered with a proper manual transmission, too.
>>28988362the same exact thing that happened to the prelude is going to happen to this.
>>28989207Not rumors, flatly confirmed by nissan. Only rumors is if it comes standard with the same Z/red sport/400r engine (which makes sense since the manual in the Z is made for that) or if it has the same engine offerings as previous skyline with manuals for all
