7:38 round the ring .. quicker than a 997 Turbo, and getting close to the CarreraGTs and Zondas.

Yep, I like it. That G35 looks awful though.
What is it with headlamps these days, is there a new law that says they have to swoop halfway up the bonnet? See also every Peugeot

Or maybe it's just a styling thing

Bloody hell 7:38 round the 'ring is amazing.
I was a bit surprised to see Nissan use a V6 over a straight 6, but I guess the unit is more compact, and helps to keep the weight behind the wheels to aid with handling.

The Skyline engine was the last of an old family of engines.
Like you say, I-6s are a bugger to package.
