Nissan GT-R: To Skyline or not to Skyline

The R35 has been out for awhile and it has deviated more than just a little from tradition. The engine is now a V6 compared to the straight 6 its predecessors have. The Skyline moniker has also been dropped so it is now the Nissan R35 GT-R as opposed to the older Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R. It feels as though the GT-R has decided it has enough fame for it to be on its own and abandon its Skyline family name. What do you think? Do you think it should be the Skyline GT-R or GT-R?

Yes is a different car, but i still look at it as an evolution, i love this car, and i do believe that should be call Skyline GT-R, is one of my dream cars, since i saw it in the 2 Fast 2 Furious movie, and the new is gorgeous, i would love to have one.

It's a completely different car, rather than an evolution of the Skyline so i think GT-R is better.
