This will be my next car for sure, the new STI just doesnt look good enough, this Skyline however, definately floats my boat.
I have been keeping a close eye on the production of this car for months now hoping the drawings and designs dont change, well they havent.
looks like it'll be about £50k

"Nissan are aiming for the Porsche market with the GTR" one dealer was quoted!
