But that's not a Skyline. Same thing. The Mustang can compete with the 3-serie s (hardly) but it's not a Bimmer...

But this is AWD and TURBO.

It's ugly. Looks like a boxed up G35 that had sex with a skyline. Ugly.

But the horsepower figures look nice... And the turbo will allow a high high-end...

But it's still not as cool as the original..

It's the same with the new Supra and NSX. They imitated the old one's lines, but made it look too futuristic to be truly sporty. But that's were BMW and Mercedes got it (somewhat) right. Futuristic, but still keeping the sporty feel the car needs..

And the FF movies ruined it for the skyline..

EDIT: Plastic engine covering? I thought it was a sports car?
