The V38 skyline was teased last year and appears to have more SUV or fastback proportions

So what does "Heartbeat model" mean? I see the line is kind of between Core and Partners.

It's going to be a mainstay or something that will continue only of there is interest? Something else?

I hope it's a manual Z-NISMO. However, based on the color, I suspect it will be the midnight purple.

For a very short and frustrating bit I had a 2023 Rock Creek. So, so much potential totally ruined by the stupid engine kill at stops and just awful bugs everywhere in the electronics. If you think the Z parking sensors are bad, imagine the entire car being that kind of mess. Also a loud clicking AC that Nissan told the dealer is normal. I wanted to love the car and hated it.

Ok…….something special. I’m sure you can’t give details but can you give any more insight?

Any chance they’ll update the suspension settings on the non-NISMOs?

havent heard of any mechanical changes for 2026. 2025 is small kind of hold over year and 2026 is coming early with the special color like 2024 heritage was as the big change
