    This is my absolute favorite car, I’m almost glad I got one when R32 sedans started shooting up in price, wayyy cheaper, more practical and luxurious but with the right mods and suspension conversions it can be just as exciting. Waiting for a tune to finally have real fun with my Cedric, they’re very slept on sleepers, especially with that Vq30det

    No, I'm sorry, dead switches are amazing! Allows you to easily install switches for aftermarket accessories. Lots of useful things come with switches that are a perfect fit there and you can still retain a factory look rather than a hole drilled into the plastic.

      The Skyline was always marketed as an entry-level performance luxury car for upcoming late20s early30s middle class. So, basically... a 3 series competitor in modern parlance.
      The Laurel was a half step up from that - a more spacious Skyline with "daily driver" towncar intentions, but 90% the same parts.
      And the Gloria was meant to be a 5-series competitor.
      That's not to say they're necessarily on the same level of BMW. These cars were cheaper for a reason. But that's what Prince Motors was going for, and what Nissan continued after acquiring them.

    On badges... Japan has never had "Infiniti". It's worth noting the Skyline, Laurel, Gloria, and President all came from a different company -- a luxury car company -- that Nissan bought out in the late 50s. Named Prince Motors.
    The purchase was not b/c Prince was having a hard time. Rather, the Japanese government -- after a scare that Ford almost bought another mfr (Mitsubishi iirc ?) in the early 50s -- forced the consolidation of Japanese auto manufacturing into a Big3 to mirror the US and German competition.
    Thus, Nissan acquired Prince Motors. And the internal politics of Nissan have never been the same. They did not get along. Until the early 2000s, Nissan dealerships in Japan were very segmented -- I guarantee if you find the dealership this Gloria was originally purchased from it will have the name "Prince" in the dealership branding. To this day, your best bet of finding a Skyline physically at a Japanese dealership is to find the old Prince dealers, ie "Nissan Prince Tachikawa".
    These internal politics are why we never got any of those 4 vehicles in the US. Because Nissan USA was dominated by Mr. K, who was firmly on the Datsun side of the house and didn't get along with the luxury Prince side. On the other hand, it's also why the Z was created. If we got the Skyline, the Z wouldn't have had a reason to exist.
    It took Infiniti becoming a brand for us to get Skylines (G35, G37, Q50, Q60), Gloria/Cima (Q45), and Fuga (Q70) -- the Fuga was a forced consolidation (by Renault) of Laurel, Gloria, Cedric, and Cima into 1 car. The aforementioned model names couldn't be used due to internal politics of Datsun or Prince "winning". So the Fuga was chosen as a new start, separate from the politics. The President died on the vine, as Toyota preeminence in the chauffeured market was dominant.
    Today, only the Skyline (Q50) and its' descendant GT-R continue to exist in the Nissan lineup.
    Maybe one day they'll bring the Laurel and Gloria back.
    So long story short... those badges date back to Prince Motors days. And Japanese know that; or at least knew in the 90s when these cars were new. It's a statement that you're not just buying a Nissan, you're buying a Prince Motors car.

    (I am Dutch and in my country it is quite expensive to own a car, definitely if you look at the crazy infrastructure of public traffic and how cheap that has become, but i think that by the time that i can afford a car lime this they will have sort of died out and become even more expensive like what is happening to skylines rn)

    The Gran Turismo is the more sportier version so the most expensive one is the VIP.

    Even though this car came out in the 90's, they threw some 80's technology in it. They remembered they had thousands of these TV sets laying on the floor of their warehouse. They were from a model that has been canceled (just a theory but could have been true. Who knows why they made that du_m b decision). That TV looks and reminds me more of the 80's than Miami Vice does.
    It's so beautiful IMO and probably handles like a dream. I'd definitely buy one if i ever get the chance.

      I absolutely love the Toyota chaser, but I think if I had to choose I would choose this or the Cedric because you can get the rb25det with AWD, and me living in Vermont AWD is a big thing especially in winter because of all the hills and mountains. You can get awd with the Toyota chaser but only with the N/A 2.5 and I personally prefer a turbo with the extra punch. So I choose Nissan Gloria/Cedric rb25det AWD!
