They had better be damn good because they are not going to sell many on the looks.

Think of a 350z with all the nice bits taken away and a fugly mercedes grill on the front.

I think the looks of the GT-R Nissans are a personal thing.

I believe the new GT-R is stunning to look at however I have not had the pleasure of seeing one close up but I do not think the last of the skylines was good looking.

Skylines are designed not to look good. Cannot think of a single version which achieved good....purposeful maybe, but not good.

I think the R32 GTR and the R33 in Japanese racing liveries are beautiful!

GTR = £55K and wipes the floor with the best from pretty much anything even on track. Quicker than a 911 GT3 RS !!! so checp for what you get.

I quite like the Skyline-esque cars like the Infinity G35, they are like the older Skyline GTS and GTT etc which are like a Skyline GTRs without breaking the bank.

I was offered the 6th slot in the queue for a GTR from my local dealership when I enquired. Did some calcs and the depreciation risk is just too much for me to stomach. I'll be waiting a year or two and then when they're around the £35k mark I'll get the wallet out.
