Spy Shots: 2008 Nissan Skyline

beak · 10-09-2006, 10:42 PM

The 2008 Nissan Skyline has broken cover in Germany. The car has just arrived for testing on the Nürburgring this week, and TheCarConnection's spies have shot these near-production photos of the new supercar.

The production version due out as a 2008 model will likely feature a twin-turbo V-6 displacing somewhere between 3.5 and 3.8 liters. Look for something "in excess of 450 horsepower." Expect the car the reach Japanese showrooms soon after the '07 Tokyo Show, with aU.S. launch in early 2008.

Yeah, I know of a bunch of people that are in the army, and are able to buy nice things due to the fact that everything they make goes right into their pockets (usually, unless if you send the money back home).

Good luck with the Skyline and the downpayment on the house.. serving our country, you definately deserve it!

nos-girl · 10-10-2006, 08:07 PM

It will probably be around 80K. I forgot, but one magazine already had the stats for it. One website calls it GT-R Proto. www.rsportscars.com can give you more info on it if anyone is curious.

WeDriveScions · 10-10-2006, 09:49 PM

Now that's a chunk of change.... I'm dissapointed it looks so much like the G35 and 350z.... The car will be entirely different, but I wish it LOOKED insanely different.

nos-girl · 10-10-2006, 10:40 PM

I know, when I first saw it, I was like this is the child of a G35 and a 350z hahaha.

JEV · 10-11-2006, 05:24 PM
