A tough one Nik

I think it may come down to your desire to have this as a keeper or not. If you think you may get fed up, I'd probably play safe and get the R35.

The old school one is more desirable in my eyes but definitely harder to sell on. One is likely to appreciate. One is likely not to.

Best of luck. Lovely decision to be able to make.

I would go for the new one as it is a car you will be able to use instead of having one as a garage ornament if you know what i mean.

Now, please don't think i'm being funny here, because i am a HUGE fan of all the Skyline models, and no doubt that the figures speak for themselves, but i think that nissan got a bit lazy with the looks of this one, here's my reason.

that's what i miss, the individuality :(

the thing is you could say the same about most car ranges atm.

i like the look of it and i think some people are having trouble separting this from a "skyline" as this is a "GTR"
