Has anyone ever noticed that the 03 and 04 Impalas look a lot like the skylines. I mean just look at the back of it. Almost like twins. Then when you look at the front body it kinda looks almost like a skylind. I dont know but it seem that the Impala is trying to look like the skyline. kinda like the Eagle Talon was trying to look like the Mitsubishi Eclipse back in the day.

well, talons were never "trying" to look like eclipses, because they do look like them, they are both the same damn chassis and they were both made by diamond star motors (a joint venture between chrysler and mitsubishi) which is why people refer to both talons, lazers, and eclipses as DSMs. As for the impala looking like a skyline, the only similarity i can possibly see is that they both have four wheels and a motor.

Yeah, i just looked at some night pics, and the impalas tail light design with the two round lights does resemble the skylines rear light pattern. But i do think that the rest of the car doesnt look anything like a skyline, especially the front area.

The heading say "I wanna be a Skyline" it doesnt say anything about "I am a Skyline, consider me to be its twin sister". I said it has simalarities. Now just look at the front then look at the front of Newer Skyine's. Take a good long look at the texture and body form. You will see that I'm right.

I've been on the freeway a couple times at night while driving next to an Impala. For the slightest split second, when i saw the taillights, my mind said "Skyline", but then my dreams were dashed and it was an Impala. It did get me for a fraction of a second though, I'll admit it.Last edited by Pennyman; 03-22-2004, 03:37 PM.
