About time

They're finally "thinking" about bringing it to the U.S. It would be a major image booster for Nissan/Infiniti.

hehehehyundai

Doesn't that look like a Hyundai Tiburon? Sure, the Hyundai only has 140 hp but it's uncanny how they're always ahead with their styling! Early to market = $$$$ = R&D = growth.

My buddy finally bought his Sentra GXE no luxury just convenience, 126 hp. He said it was an absolute steal. He thinks he got it less than $200 over the dealer's true cost as it was hundreds under invoice. He tried to compare it to Hyundai Elantra which is better looking but he really didn't want the Hyundai name. Guess what? The Hyundai dealer wouldn't budge because they have a good seller and the body is only a few months old. Sentra is actually officially cheaper on selling price than the Elantra. Wow are things changing fast.

A 3.0L turbocharged V6? Obviously, that's not an evolution of the current engine. I wonder if they are gonna turbocharge the VQ.

Umm...that looks absolutely nothing like the Tiburon.
Unless every car you see w/ the rear fenders flared looks like a Hyundai to you.

yeah i heard that too.
i think it's actually better that way, i mean if they sell them under $55k with steel body and 400hp v8, everyone is gonna have one, no fun

Hey, the VQ30DE is already offered in a tt version in Japan. It powers the Japanese version of the Q45, I think.

Skyline looks great, btw. The smoother styling will prolly help it sell better. Ppl prolly would have found the R34 to be too hard-edged and blocky. SCC called it a 'ballistic refridgerator.'
