I seen a Nissan Skyline in Tampa one day. It looked almost exactly like the Infinity G35. It even had the Michigan Manufacturor(sp?) plate on it.

West/Central Florida is the proving grounds for VW/Audi. They have a warehouse here in Tampa that they operate out of, and they've been doing it since I was a kid. Kinda cool seeing future cars on the road though.

Saw that car, too. I was on the Courtney Campbell, so I got a good look. Full Skyline/Nissan badges. 300GT model, not the 350GT top of the line one, which would be exactly what a G35 is. Michigan Manufacturer tags. Middle aged driver/passenger, so I doubt it's some highschooler trying to be cool. Maybe a Canadian model?

Probably a long-term manufacturer road test. Pretty common actually. There were Altezzas (pair of them) running around the SE years after the IS300 came out. Manuf. get special priveleges.
