    Have I missed something?

    I saw this in a side street in Adelaide. The pictures of my phone are next to usless but it said Skyline on it. I have'nt seen one of them before.

    Where are they being sold at the moment. It must be a grey import.

    What was once the grey importage free-for-all isn't what it used to be, so perhaps either a personal import or maybe it belongs to an automotive-related company or for that matter Nissan Aust?

    There's a quite a few G35s doing the rounds in Aus at the moment, so someone's obviously just chucked a Nissan badge on it. It's basically just a big 350Z so it's no hassle re parts and servicing.

    Plenty in New Zealand. Simply an Infiniti G35. They're sold as Nissan Skyline in Japan and that ones obviously been imported from there. They're getting fairly popular here.

    It's Skyline 35. 35 onwards, Skyline had nothing to do with GTR.

    It'll be either Nissan Skyline, or Nissan GTR. Which IMO is stupid.

    I love the Skyline GTR package.

    In the US they're Infiniti G35 coupe's, basically an upmarket Nissan, anywhere else they're the Nissan Skyline, we get them over here too, but in small numbers, imported by a company called T.W White & Sons, also known as my local Mazda dealership.
