Have you been to the TCS races lately? With the new rules for this season in GT2 especially, there were all kinds of shells being used. At Nats I saw: Skylines, Porsches, Lexus SCs, Corvettes, and Nissan Zs. Clearly most people know the Skyline is the most neutral, but people like trying other things. Even in GT1 it was a good mix of NSXs, F430s, 360s, and some Skylines.
Its more exciting to have a bunch of nice scale bodies to choose from than having a whole field of Mazda 6s running around (unless you are Dale that is..)
