Looks nice besides the wing.

The headlights are slightly different then the prototype pics. They have the L shape to them like the Infinity's.

Definitely photoshopped.

Some other blog said the prices would be $35k for the base model, but thats ridiculously off. Maybe 35 euros or something, but i can't see any version of the skyline coming in below $50K USD.

Three trim levels seems stupid for a limited production car. Make one version with a conventional 6 speed, one version with the DSG box, and give everything the best possible engine, chassis, suspension, blah blah.

There's already like 6 trim levels of 350z for the broke people who can't afford the GTR.

Perhaps the three trim models aren't as different as you think.

One 6spd
One SMG or whatever
One Fancy tarted up one, the EVO, aero, bigger wheels, bigger brakes. Probably SMG. Perhaps even one of these is a track only model such as the M3 GTR.

On FA, there's an article saying there could be as much as a 15k difference in various trim levels, which doesn't make much sense. There was also the implication that the lowest model might not even be turbo? Also far-fetched.

If the tranny were the only difference...well..why not just make the DSG tranny an option, and any aero/wheels/fancy brakes an option

not that far fetched since skylines even came in 4cyl models well... i think the last time they did that was the r32? but yeah there are non turbo skylines obviously non-gtr. It sounds like they are treating the GTR as a regular ole skyline. and a 15k difference between the base model and the topof the line is not that unheard of.

The g35 is already the "skyline." As has been known for quite some time, the GT-R is no longer a trim level of the Skyline, it is being made its own car, to be used as the "halo car" for the brand.

There's no point to a 35K "base" GT-R when there's already a 350Z and an upgraded track version rumored to be on the way. If it's luxury based, there's already the redesigned G35 coupe.

i agree with the fact that there is not going to be a 35k GT-R since that is basically a g35/37 or a 350z. I think if there is a base trim model it THINK it would be around the 45k spot, I'm just saying it sounds like to me that they are using their business model of the previous skylines IE R34 and older for their GT-R model.

I highly doubt such a design as that photoshopped pic will be released. However, I can see an aftermarket company making something like that. I'm interested in the base level trim GT-R....then again...I'm interested in the car as a whole.
