I Pulled up behind a new G35... no wait its a 350Z... no wait its a new Skyline.

Is this for real, It looks like a cross between a G35 and a new Z, It had a skyline emblem on the back and a 350GT or 353GT (couldant quiet make it out) badge below the whale tail and to the right, and it was left hand drive. Also it had personalized california plates that read SKYLINE. Does anyone know whats the deal on this? Is this car avalable in the U.S. or did this guy just put skyline emblems on his G35?

It was sweet.

Yes, the Japan market Skyline is basically our G35. They do market a model in Japan called the Skyline with "350" badge, and some slight model variants. Maybe he got the Jap Skyline badges...it's still correct to generalize that a US version is the Skyline.
