I'm going to purchase a V35 Skyline Coupe in the new year sometime, and I just wanted to know what SAU thought of it?

I realize you guys probably haven't seen one in the flesh, let alone drive one, but what do you think of it overall? A step in the right direction?

I used to loathe this car, but since I made a few contacts in the car auction industry here (therefore opening up oportunities to seriously consider a V35), I really had good look at them, even having a ride in one yesterday. I didn't drive it myself (but thats cool because it was an AT anyway...) but from the passenger seat I could really see what Nissan are trying to do with the Skyline now... High Performance All-round GT perfection!!! Seriously, the ride, handling, seamless acceleration, and the fit/finish of the car is nothing short of awesome. It felt like a "big" coupe, but not in a bad way like some people say of the R33.

The V35 is quality all the way. The guy who was driving took it to redline once or twice, and only stomped on the brakes once, but from that I can only conclude that this car is like the R34s GT-Ts big brother. Seriously.

I WANT TO MODIFY ONE.

its definately looks like a 350z side on, a Bluebird front on, and rear? kinda looks like that old r35 prototype pictures they released

i dont like it, but its not bad either

Not a worthy successor to the R34 if you ask me

2007 people.

That black one slammed on the Te37's isn't bad.

I think Nissan are stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Renault and this move towards N/A cars with their rounded styling isn't exactly to my liking.

I think the family resemblance thing is going too far. It's too bad a leap for me really.

You can sorta see the progression from 32-33-34 but just like how the 32 was something quantum over the 31 maybe given time, we'll see the 35 in the same way.

Just not right now in 2003!

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
