G35 is the Nissan Skyline in the Japanese market. This is the Nismo tuned version.

The front looks awesome, the rear looks a little too busy

Would this be like a Skyline GT-S?

Wait till the new CTS-V comes out. ;)

I don't like the way the headlights sweep back into the fenders.  Also, the rear of the car just looks pudgy, thanks to the spoiler on top of the short decked trunk.  I think the car would look a bit better sans spoiler (I know it's the NISMO version), and with a trunk lid a bit longer.

After you wake up with the sun at 6am on someone's floor, coughing up cigarette butts and tasting like warm beer, you may well change your opinion on this matter.

heelntoe

well, the headlights you can do nothing about but i think a lip spoiler in the back would definately help.

btw doesnt it look awefully similar to the infinity G35. :tounge:

That's because it IS an Infiniti G35.  The G35 here in America is the same as the Skyline over there.  ;)

They don't even compare. This is acceptable somewhat. The IS-F is just a turd.

It's a bit gawdy for my tastes, but I do think it came out better than the IS-F.  The IS-F looked like it underwent an amateur lowering job.  There appeared to actually be a negative gap between the tire and the fender arch (appeared as though the fender was covering the top bit of the tire when viewed from the side).  The NISMO has a little bit of wheel gap, making the wheel wells look well-filled, but not over-filled or making the car look like it was lowered too much.

You can probably just order it through a Nissan dealer. It's NISMO so expect to pay an arm and leg though.

Oddly enough in a way it looks more like the new GS (c-pillar, overall profile) and the IS (the wheels) than an Infiniti. I still love it though. I wonder if they will make a NISMO Fuga...

Wasn't Nissan going to start a performance parts division for Infiniti in the US that was basically going to be NISMO with another name?
