An even better comparison as the bodies evolved:

R34 STILL THE BEST ONE!

New GT-R = pure sex!

What's wrong with that telephoto... LOL... (except that I hate it)... What should I "downgrade" to LOL

You can always get a used Vivitar 70-300mm.

There has always been Skylines and Skyline GT-R, but the new GT-R isn't built on the same platform as the current Skylines to my knowledge. Are the new 370Z and G37's built on the same platform?

As far as I know there built on almost identical platforms differing in length and a couple of other points.
But that doesn't necessarily make it a offshoot of a Skyline, just like the Laurel, Cefiro, Stagea etc are not part of the Skyline heritage.
(not that I'm all that interested in the 370Z/G37-V36 models, Skylines lost most of there appeal to me after the R31 :lol

Well... you have a few options...

1. El Cheapo EF-S 55-250 IS
Pros: Low price, decent IQ, super small and light
Cons: No USM, f4-5.6?

2. EF 70-200 f4 IS
Pros: Excellent IQ, USM, kinda small and light
Cons: F4

3. Sigma 70-200 f2.8 OS HSM
Pros: Great IQ, HSM, f2.8
Cons: Sigma (not really a con for me), heavier lens

4. EF 70-200 f2.8 IS II
Pros: No compromises, the best
Cons: Big price, heavier lens

The 55-250 IS is about $200-$250 USD here.
Both the 70-200 f4 and the Sigma are around $1,300 USD.
The 70-200 f2.8 IS II is around $2,500 USD new... it's a big boy

There is also the Canon 70-300L... it is suppose to have excellent IQ, but the variable aperture, weight, and $1,600 price tag kinda turns me off.

Don't forget the Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM (not the L version, and definitely not any of the 75-300mm lenses). $530 price tag and excellent IQ. Its main drawback is it front focuses, so the front of the lens rotates during focusing making a CPL filter awkward to use.

You really are an old man...

Cadillac...

In all seriousness though, fast car... I'd never buy one though.

You lens shoppers do know that POTN has lens tables that will give you lots of options for replacing the 75-300mm, don't you?

I believe it was, it might still be, the fastest production sedan, at least in terms of Nurburgring times.

i don't know, but for $63,000 it's cheap and fast with nice styling

Wow, slick. Good going Cadillac!

I went to Cadillac's site and the EXIF data reader told me a 5D2 took some photo on the site, lol!

Nice cars. Fast and cushy. Last ones I got to test drive were the CTS V 4 with direct gasoline injection. That was a very nice car to do the acceleration and braking checks on for the PDI.
