It's definitely worth the wait. The GT-R will go into production in 2007 and the sooner, the better. The striking
design touches hark back to previous GT-Rs. The round taillights are beautifully integrated with the rear end of the
car, and the designers gave the entire body a mean muscular look. We've heard that this GT-R Proto closely resembles
the production vehicle in execution. There are lots of photos after the jump.
Eddie Alterman wades in with Sam, Chris, Dan, and Jonny to talk about SEMA and other recent events.

Thats it, this is my new dream car. I think the styling is spot on, they did a great job on this one.

Very nice. Clean up some of the rough edges and bring it over here as an Infiniti G35R or maybe just an Infiniti R and they've got themselves a ~$55,000 Vette-killer.

This car is HOT!!! I hope they dont price it thru the roof.

Slap a G35 coupe front end on there and it would be perfect.

This car is amazing. It will look beautiful next to my Titan. I'm going to go ahead and start saving now.

The nose looks like a cross between an Audi and the next gen Mitsu Evo.

Anybody who's a fan of the Skylines should be happy to see this car return. Anybody American that is a fan of the Skyline should be especially glad to see this car come to the states. Anybody who can't afford this car (me) should be crying right now.

I like it. A LOT! Nissan - bring it to the US as the Infiniti R, like Devin mentioned.

this thing looks mean as hell. and the design looks very aggressive. i can't wait until the tuners get their hands on this. its a beautiful car and can't wait for the specs.

I don't know who copied who. This looks too much like the Ferreri GG50, or is it just me?

Wow. That's all I can say. wow.

Just beautiful. I was scared when I saw the earlier prototype designs, but this thing is freakin' gorgeous.
Reply
Alex 10:45PM (12/18/2005)
is it just me or does the whole black part where the GTR logo is in the front looks like the grill of the current 4Runner?
Reply
Jason 10:45PM (12/18/2005)
Very nicely designed - it has styling clues from the previous Skylines and they did an excellent job bringing it up to date.
I have one suggestion. I think instead of making the rear tail lights recessed they should extend them outward out of the body (like many Ferraris), or make them flush with the body.

That looks freaking beautiful. I wish the GT-R emblem on the front was just a bit tinier though.

Hmm. Sorry to spoil the lovefest, but personally I think it's hideous. I've just never been a fan of Japanese car styling. That front end... just awful.
