I'm not liking the nose too much, but I like that they carried over the round taillights.

Looks like the mascara is running from the headlights

Also if you look at the part of the front that isn't black and runs along side the hood it looks like the "H" off a Honda.

kinda ricey, but i'd hit it if i had money to burn.

I agree on the front end...reminds me of the Cadillac coup...I wouldn't be surprised if the production version has a slightly revised front end.

I think the US gets a skyline in 07, but it wont be called a "skyline" i heard it will be a $70 k or so Infinity.

The US already has a Skyline that's not called a Skyline, its called a G35

As far as I know, the G35 is the luxurious version of the 350Z. I think they share the same Wheel base and engine, but the difference is that the G35 has a classy sports look and a luxurious cockpit.

Isn't the Skyline another sports class (different than the 350Z and G35) under the same manufacturer?

Danny,

go to www.nissan.co.jp. The G35 sold in the US is sold as the 'Skyline' in many countries outside the US including Japan. The previous Skyline on which the former Skyline GT-R was based, had several base models that were sold as two or four door naturally aspirated sedans.

The G35 is known here as the Infinity G35 and not Nissan G35
But this is not Infinity Skyline but rather Nissan Skyline...
Ok now I know it, the same car has differnet denominations in different countries, for ex you have the Mitsubishi Montero in the States, in the middle east it is called Mitsubishi Pajero and in UK it is known as the Mitsubishi Shogun...
I think it is Marketing Strategy... the name
