The new skyline in Japan is a 4-door, they also had another 4 door skyline, but it wasn't just "base" don't remember actual name. "Base" skyline would be the GTS -- RWD, RB25DET. The rest you have is correct.

Remember, we do have 2 different Skyline chasises now(both 350Z and G35 are skyline based). And the G35 2 door coupe should be interesting next year, although it will have a back seat unlike the 350.

Just do what I hope to in the near future -- MotoRex Skyline be comin my way. R33 GT-R is planned right now. Need a raise first.

You sure the 350Z is Skyline based? They share some of the same parts I'm sure, but the Z and the Skyline are very different vehicles. The Z is more of the American-style, RWD, brute force, in your face, tire smoking, monster. The Skyline- excluding GT-R models- is a bit more understated, especially with the single turbo or the ever rare non-turbo AWD version. The GT-R are on the other hand, is more brute force due to the TT, though the AWD platform sets it apart...
