Nissan GT-R V35 - 11th Generation (2001 - )


Finally, after 3 years of speculation and various pictures of what the new Skyline might look like, the wait is over.

Fortunately, rumors stating the Skyline would be dropped in favor of the new Z-Car were not confirmed, since on June 18th, 2001 the all-new Nissan V35 GT-R was released. Although the "Skyline" model name would not be applied to the GT-R in future.

The new car comes with two entirely new engines, a 2.5l V6 with 215hp and a 3.0l V6 with 260hp.

With these engines, Nissan marks a new step of the Skyline towards the luxury-sedan segment, since there is no entry level engine anymore.

Had previous versions been evolutions of their respective predecessors, the new V35 now presents a cut into the Skyline's design history as radical as the last model change from the R31 to the R32. The V35 comes in 4 versions: 300 GT, 250 GT, 250 GT Four and 250 Gte, the 250 GTe being the least expensive.
