What do you have to say about the front end of the GT-R then?

I really don't like any of the new car designs these days. The GTR is nice though, but looks to much like a celica in the front.

The last good car design was with the supra IMO

I like the way the front of the EVO X looks, im actually glad Nissan stole the idea.

Freakin' Toyota steals every German design there is - for instance - MRS = Porsche, Camry = BMW 5-series, etc.

I don't know why they keep showing the silver, it looks so much better in other colors. Black and bronze are both gorgeous, and that red isn't bad (although I'd never drive a red car).

Funny thing is, I'd rather get a 911 Turbo over the GT-R any day.


Just because of class. Performance wise, it's a bit less than the GT-R but I don't care.

It's always been a toss up between them for me, as the R34 has been available in Japan/UK only. Right now, I'd rather have the GT-R because its cheaper and the aftermarket should explode. Emphasis on cheaper.

i coulda sworn Mitsubishi stole Nissans idea and not the other way around.... cuz the concept version of the skyline presented now was in the works all the way since 2003/2004 right? [correct me if i'm wrong]

as for choice...

GT-R > Evo
