Other way around. GM has been copying Nissan for years. Look at the "Impala" (I still call it the Lumina). The new Skyline, the R35, as some call it, is kinda a let down. It will be ugly and heavy and might not live up to the real GT-Rs. Killing the Skyline and rebadging a Z Platform is a slap in the face to GT-R Idealists like myself. Gone are the days of the RB26 and decent looks...at least the price has doubled.
