I wonder if the coupe will have more power than the sedan like the past models. Hopefully the coupe and sedan look nothing alike.

This warning will not be repeated and we'll begin to use the suspension feature of this forum.

Moderators have already asked repeatedly that this thread remain civil.

So is the new GTR going to use the G35 coupe platform. Also is it going to be a skyline or just called GTR.

It appears to be badged as a Nissan because in Japan (where this drawing is likely from) there is no Infiniti branding. The Infiniti nameplate is only in the U.S. for now.

The new GT-R is the first "skyline GT-R" to share no chassis with any other nissan vehicle. All previous GT-R's have shared a chassis with the skyline sedan.

Just not Japan? Where else is Infiniti sold, beside Canada? Isnt Infiniti just now starting to sell outside NA starting with some of the '07-'08 models? I thought it was just Nissan everywhere else to date? Also, I thought the GT-R isnt going to bare the "Skyline" nameplate as the V35 = Skyline = G35...?

1. Skyline has always been sedan based. It wasn't until the R32 did we get the "badass" GT-R form...but it was still sedan based (R33 and R34 as well).
2. The Nissan Skyline in Japan and continues to be the Infiniti G35 in America.
3. For the first time, the GT-R will be a seperate model. So you have SKyline and now you will have GT-R. However, I am not sure if the GT-R will be a modified FM platform or be a totally new platform. Ghosen is adamant if the car will not make money, it will not be so I can't see how it won't share some sort of major mechanicals somewhere.
4. Infiniti exists outside the United States in very small markets (countries) and began selling in Russia this year. They are not in Europe.

When does this thing go on sale? My gs430 has pissed me off, and is most likely getting traded in for one of this babies.
