The Skyline is in the US, has been since 2002. It's just badged as an Infiniti G35.

These are the latest generation, their body code is the V35.
Now, the GTR version of the Skyline ended in the R34 form in 2002 (a few race only ones were made for the JTGC 2003). Now everyone is waiting for the GTR (probably won't have the Skyline name associated either, just GTR) which last update I've heard starts production in 2007 to sell as a 2008 model.

"Skyline" will NEVER be in the USA. The Infiniti wil though. Same sheetmetal.

Yeah, it's been done. A guy I went to high school with lives down the street from me. His silver G35 Coupe has the Nissan Skyline GT350 badges on it.
