yea the G35 is the skyline

I don't think so. I think Nissan will keep the name and not let Infiniti use it.

A bunch of ricers buying Skyline badges for their G35s doesn't change anything. You won't find a G35 in Japan with a Skyline badge on it from the factory.

idk, I remembered reading it was gonna come out under Inifiniti....but I think that would be stupid really. If they wanted to get the younger market to buy the skylines they'd def need to do it with the Nissan name.

RE: Skyline

Yeah, I'm trying to find an article I read on it once, but it's not popping up on google now.

I'm sure you could pop over to g35driver.com and find all the answers. They even like to call G35s "Skylines" over there. Those guys are seriously ready for a factory Skyline. But they are hung up on the name. It's not going to be a 4 banger with a huge turbo.

And the G35 is a luxury 350z and they share the same platform. It is not a Skyline.

^^That article does say that the G was sold as a Vitesse/Skyline in Japan after 2002 though. I was thinking of the car that is pictured at the top of that article and how different it is from the g35.
