I haven't seen a direct comparison before, but I would say definitely not.

The G35 is a great handling car. But the Coupes and most of the Sedans are only RWD. Only the G35x sedan is equipped with the part time AWD ATTESA-ETS system. It has 260hp (17 more to be added on the 2005 models) and weights 3677lbs, the RWD models weight ~308lbs less.

Now the Evo is an full time AWD with 271hp and the RS (better model due to front locking diff) weights 3263lbs, the EVO with the bling bling spoiler, higher price, and an open front diff weights ~88lbs more. The 2005 is introducing the Evo MR which is basically a road legal version of the full out rally cars.

I see no comparision, the EVO is designed for extreme handling that rallies require. The G35/Skyline has become a luxury car, nice luxurious handling, but I haven't seen any Japanese tuners developing it to even try to compete against the EVO, of anything else for that matter.

Evos are the best bang for buck Japanese car I cant think of. But the new Skyline coupe (G35) is still a pretty nice car.

I don't think the G35 has HICAS. It's quite a different car from the Evo, anyway. It would almost be like comparing an M5 and a Viper.

evos strike me as raw and mean and all aboutpower and handling with a total disregard for aesthetics, whereas as skylines are less power crazy and do care about aesthetics!

The G35 is an Infiniti. This is a Skyline forum.

So you're saying that the G35 is under $25k? Every evo 8 (GSR) I have seen for sale is 25-28k USD brand new.
