Back in July, Ford surprised the automotive world by submitting a filing for the Skyline name with the US Patent and Trade Office. It was a shock, mostly because Nissan has been producing world-famous performance coupes under the Skyline and Skyline GT-R names since the 1960s. That led the company to fire back, filing a trademark of its own for use of the Skyline name in the U.S. on model cars and minicars on August 26th. It also trademarked the name for full-sized cars in Canada on August 25th.
