Nothing exquisite as regards the exterior but the interior is almost flawless.

That is pretty crazy looking, but it has lot a potential. Check those exhausts out - never seen that before.

Is it supposed to have a straight six engine like the old supra (or current IS300) or get some bigger more supercar engine?

if you say so

honestly, the Skyline seemed to heavy to be in contention in that car's range... not to mention the styling (to me) is much more bland.
oh, and the NSX is ~still here... where is the skyline? oh, its now a 350z...

and to bring further truth in the IMO area... ill take a scuby WRX STi anyday... but its really not quite in the same group as the NSX, but the Skyline is more like the scuby... but more powerful...

so, i guess ill just say... mostly bland cars in japan... but for some reason, i really love the STi as much as many of my favorite cars...
the skyline isen't a 350z the 350z is basicley a new version of the 300zx, most 300zx's had 2 seats, so does the 350z...

where is the skyline now, well they recientley made another production run of them, the 2nd last production after celebrating it's record braking lap time at "the ring"

skyline isen't that much like a scooby skyline has .6 more L more advanced AWD system, twin turbo setup, and a inline 6 engine...

but at the end of the day it's you're personal opinion..
just rember the 350z and the skyline have one thing in common..
they are made by nissan.. and thats basicley it.

The skyline isnt the 350Z its the Infiniti G35. The NSX looks good IMO but the Skyline is better performancewice. Sti is good but looks liky my dog's balls.

have you by any chance DRIVEN a skyline? until then, do well to, uh, not be so ignorant. thank you. have a nice day.

:EDIT: oh, and if the skyline's styling is bland, which it isnt, at least it doesnt look like the arse end of cow. AND the RB26 has much more potential for power than the wrx's four cyl. the highest ive seen out of them is 1400 HP. thanx again.

LOL - I meant the triangular design. (And yes, i find the Zonda's exhasts to be one of the best looking designs in existance.)

The closest I've seen is on the Fuora Black Jag, I believe, which uses two exhaust pipes that are shaped so that the whole thing looks like one triange.

but 3 round exhaust pipes in a triangular fashion - odd - one pipe per 2 banks (assuming straight six)???
