You know that the GT-R isn't coming until 2008, and if you wait a year that means 2009 for you. Good luck. I plan on getting a GT-R also, but I don't plan on selling the Evo anytime soon. Evo will become a dedicated track car. Skyline will be my everyday commuter

i disagree...i think the new gt-r concept is very ugly. look at the roof line...EWWW. If it didnt say "Skyline" on it, i believe that no one would give a rats rear-end about the car. It looks like an electric 'grocery-getter' concept from nissan. Now an R34, thats different....
But I still highly doubt that they will produce it...the old "Skyline" concept turned into the 350z/ G35. Im sure that this will just turn into the 2008 350z/ G35 as well...

But i get your point, and disagree.. i find the GT-R prototype really nice allthough i'd still pick up an Evo X instead of it... The GTR looks too much like a supercar for me, which is not what i want to be driving when i'm 25..

You sound like me, I am in college, sold my cobra in order to save for an Evo IX and a TT Supra, because I want both. My plan is to buy one as soon as I graduate, if not before, then wait a while to find the other one. I will probably try and get the Supra first.

good luck!...waiting for your future ride and i always wanted a skyline over a evo because of its reputation and legacy,but the cost of a new skyline is too much for me and hopefully one day i'll own a skyline.
