V35 skyline

I just wanna make one thing clear because im tired of having this arguement.
The Infiniti g35 is a Nissan Skyline!!!! Every other country got the same car (some with minor differences) that we got here in the U.S. except that since Nissan was trying to compete with higher end companies, they created Infiniti and imported their nissan models here as Infiniti. The nissan skyline was DE BADGED and then badged as G35 for the American population. Here is a good quote.. "Beginning with its third generation (V35), the Infiniti G have been rebadged versions of the Nissan Skyline line of sedans and coupes that were exported to the United States and Canada."-wikipedia. Im tired of listening to ignorant bashers that dont even own a V35 complain and whine without doing any research. READ THE QUOTE... RE-BADGED!!! It should be pretty clear by now that my car sais SKYLINE on it and im pleased to have the BADGE for what it truly is.(which by the way Infiniti in Tustin Re-badged the car to skyline when originally purchased)

Some of my best friends in this life have been GREEKS so no argument here.... However, there are quite a few differences between what we drive and the Skylines crusing the streets of Japan.

OP is not referring to a Skyline R32/R33/R34 GT-R which would be quite different. He is referring to the Skyline 350GT (V35) which is essentially the same thing as our cars.

wow! i had to read that twice. In japan they have the Nissan Skyline 350GT. Here in the the US, We have the Infiniti G35. They are both the same exact car. The only difference between the cars is America puts all these restriction on the car to make it slower.

Just curious. When your friends ask what you drive, do you tell them you drive a Skyline?

I wasn't referring to the GT-R or it's previous models, the Skyline Nissan sells all across the pacific rim is slightly different than what we drive....along with right hand drive. WTF do you think I'm new, we have members on Guam, Vietnam and Australia that have posted numerous pic or their rides.

Don't get your panties in a bunch...I never said you were new.

My only point was the Skyline 350GT is essentially the same thing as the G35. At the end of the day I could personally care less, but other than being right hand drive...they are pretty much the same...not "quite different" per your first post.
