i gotta agree with this too...if i bought an m35/45, i would have to tint those tail lights or atleast put red film over the clear part...its so ugly!

As you can see, the magazine cover states "New Spin of the NEW Skyline". Japanese car magazines now refer to the GT-R as simply "GT-R", not V35 GT-R anymore.

I'll try to post them again. Don't know why you can't see them on your computer.

another one...
So like I said, the upcoming GT-R (which will be similar to the GT-R proto shown) will be completely separated from the Skyline lineage. The red one shown here is probably a face-lift (or what I call "minor-change" in JDM terms) version of the G35 coupe, or maybe a major re-design.
It's kinda like the new S2000, very minor changes in 2006 but it's actually a redesign..?

The G looks similar to the current model, which is a good thing IMO. The current G is still very attractive years after its release.
I just hope the interior has been improved.

The clear tail lights is one thing I got used to, but still don't particularly care for on our RX330. That is why I'll probably buy the red/clear JDM Harrier tail lights. The tail lights and rear ends on most new models from everyone seem to be the weak link. Most I can live with but some are just terrible.
To keep this on topic I like the changes they are doing to the new Skyline/G35. Well, except as many pointed out the clear taill lights. Just add some color into them and they will be great

Clear tails are very 2001. Infiniti and Lexus need to get over it. I don't like them on the RX and I don't like them on the FX.

The Skyline looks good in those pics, seems the sharp crease is the way to go nowadays.
