The Nissan Skyline (Facts)

The Nissan Skyline (スカイライン in Japanese) is a line of compact cars originally produced by the Japanese  starting in 1957 and subsequently by Nissan. It is currently available in either coupe, or sedan body styles, with the wagon form being dropped in 1989 with the introduction of the R32 platform.

The 11th generation Skyline (V35) was a major turning point for the nameplate, as it dropped the Skyline's trademark characteristics such as the straight-6 engine and turbocharging, eventually separated the GT-R into its own line, and moved to V6-engined era, this decision which extended to all later Skylines

There are many skylines now from the R30 to the new and improved R35s
