Nay...
I dont mind the 350GT, but like they say, if you do one, you have to do all. And that means rebadging to a Nissan which in my mind is the dumbest thing you could do to an Infiniti (unless your in Japan).

To be honest, I never really understood the whole meaning of debadging the G. Is putting on the Skyline lettering on the trunk supposed to look better than Infiniti??? Does a 350GT emblem look better than a G35? What exactly is the point? I guess I must be missing something, and therefore my flame suit is ready.

^^^haha. I won't flame you.
The Nissan Skyline 350GT is the 11th generation Skyline (aka a V35), where-as here in the US and Canada it's known as an Infiniti G35.

skyline's arent really a bigdeal overseas. even the older maximas had the skyline name on them before. dont get skyline mixed up with a GTR. GTR's are the real deal. imo the GTR's coming out here dont deserve the GTR name because it truly isnt one without the RB26.

PGC10 (sedans) and KPGC-10 (coupes) were Skyline 2000GT-R's powered by the S20 engine. They were 3rd generation Skylines.
Most ppl think the the GTR was only for the R32-34 with the RB series engine, which really isn't true.
