Yeah, but in a watered-down version. It will be a sedan (WTF?) and it will not be the twin-turbo i-6. Current predictions are a near-400 HP V-8. D'oh ...

Yea, but better than nothing. Mainly because that means that the 'real' Skyline might possibly have a chance. I mean anything's possible.

The GTR is going to be available in 2 or 4 door versions supposedly. In Japan its going to be available with either the RB or the V8(not sure if its NA or not) but the V8 is going to be the engine used internationally. Not positive on this but just whats been going around.

The times w/ S2k and FD come VERY CLOSE!!!!!! 13.8 S2k, similar to FD.

IF S2000 was turbo'd, I'd probably prefer it because I'm still getting a good looking car, not as rare though, convertible, but its got that honda reliability [not as good as toyota ]

Um, you can't get 'em here yet. You may be asking for conversion prices from overseas though, I dunno.

Last article I read says the EVO will come in somewhere around $30K. I would suspect that when the STi comes it'll be close to the same story.

Great cars. And those will be that much better than the WRX, at 276bhp. Pretty solid stuff.
