That design of the new Skyline is an Infiniti with the Nissan logo. It’s a shame how little originality some brands show when designing new models.

To be fair, the Skyline in Japan is/was the Infiniti G35 and G37 anyway. But yeah, your point is still there.

Both those cars had excellent styling. This thing looks like a modernized Altima to me.

Infiniti is North American badge engineering of Nissan. The Skyline is not strictly the GTR variant. GTR was a trim, not a dedicated model, prior to the R35. Even still, you can see the G-coupe body lines in the R35. After the R34 Skyline generation came the V35 in 2001. Check out the V36 (2006) and V37 (2014) Skylines as well and you'll see they have been "Infinitis with a Nissan badge" for 25 years
