It'll be called the Infiniti G-something here in the US, but the 2012 Nissan Skyline Coupe will debut late in 2011. Rumor has it there'll be a hybrid powertrain underhood. Hopefully it doesn't closely resemble these drawings. [4WheelsNews]

looks very similar to the g37, just wit a little more curves

lazysk8er2 · 10-29-2009, 12:54 PM

yea its just the g37 again basically. but i doubt itll have 450 hp thats gtr territory.

spooled240 · 10-29-2009, 01:01 PM

i don't like the back, front looks okay but nothing special imo

*kingkilburn* · 10-29-2009, 01:24 PM

Who is shocked by this? It's called the Essence.

usdm180sx · 10-29-2009, 01:30 PM

I hope that C-Pillar "kink" doesn't become any more popular. WTF is it doing on the Essence and Lexus LF-A? It had to be thought up by Chris Bangle... :/

ronmcdon · 10-29-2009, 02:07 PM

looks ok to me.
more like a subtle evolution of the existing theme.

just wish they didn't have to make it any bigger.
I also see no need for any more power.
330 is already more than sufficient imo.
hybrid power-plant is just gimmicky.

makes sense that they would make this more of a tourer,
while keeping the Z as the default sports car alternative.
it would reduce the chance of cannibalizing sales between the 2 models.

not my type of car anyways (still prefer the 328/335/135),
but it's commendable nonetheless.

Hey nissan when are you gonna bring these to the states, they are sooo cool looking.

this van is the new shag van

*fliprayzin240sx* · 10-30-2009, 03:32 AM

Hyundai made the Genesis to look like the G35, but now Nissan is trying to make the G35 look like the fucking Tiburon...fucking fail...

*exitspeed* · 10-30-2009, 08:44 AM

Keep in mind guys that's just another rendering by some publication.

The Essense is the closest thing we have to see the next G. The Essense is a GORGEOUS car. If the next G looks like that it will be an even better seller.

Where do you see Tiburon?

*exitspeed* · 10-30-2009, 09:56 AM

Yeah...I don't see a Tiburon there anywhere.

smellslikecurry · 10-30-2009, 10:26 AM

wrong gen tiburon

*kingkilburn* · 10-30-2009, 10:44 AM

I still don't see it.

*exitspeed* · 10-30-2009, 10:47 AM

Oh now I see it. Cause it has headlights and two doors and some wheels. Ahhh.

SlideWell · 10-31-2009, 01:36 AM

i believe theyre all trying to flow the car around the window scheme, a sports car with that backing to it to really make it look likes its driven to go forward, i dunno, ive seen it in many cars, even pontiacs with the same side window design and black housing headlights effect. its all pretty gay, i think they all tried to pawn off the S15. either way, everything looks gay nowadays to me, ill stock to 90's cars.
