Looks good from the front quarter pannel back. The hood, front end, and front fender are not as smooth as the rest of the car. However, if this GT-R has the mechanics and power of the last GT-R (that didn't make it state side) then this will be one hell of a car, though it will probably be way out of my price range.

As good as it may look in those pictures, we all know when and if it makes it to production, that it won't look anything similar to the pics.

It reminds me too much of the Nissan minivan. I don't like it.

Minivan?
Its got raked fenders, a low slung/slanted sindow, a super high belt line and a giant front air dam.

I fail to see the resemblance bsides the nissan logo.


On a side note why do half of my posts get deleted?

Cool concept, but I don't think that that should be the next skyline. A skylines design should scream performance without looking too pretty or designed.

Evo and Sti on the other hand don't scream performance....they just look like econoboxes.

I like a lot ( I agree with downshift – the front fenders are very much like the RX-8's)
I wonder if it will be a 2+2 hachback?

Sadly true. The concept Z was much nicer, even the Quest concept was much nicer than the actual 2004 production model...

I even hate to say this but the RX-Evolve and the couple of pre-production RX-8s had some nicer designed elements (like the early front hood with those sweet vents and also the side mirror lights) ...

Thats the way to go now. The new 4G or Mitsu/Eclipse will look the same as far as fenders go.

I'm not sure that I see it ... other than vertical stacked front headlights and the logo ...

I've been search the web for more information on this new concept GTR, but can not come up with anything at all.

I did find this

http://nissannews.com/

... down under Non-US Vehicles ... I wish the 5 door mazda6 was more of a fastback like this 2004 Primera ( I have a thing for fastback styling)

:D

Don't like it. Man, Nissan is either dead on with their styling or way off.
