Still, the IDx isn't great looking either. I fully suspect it will be the equivalent of a modern Silvia in everything but looks... I just wish they designed it after the S15 instead. A more modern, sleek S15 with the great steering and handling of the FR-S but with the same 250hp as the S15 would be awesome. At 200hp the IDx doesn't sound very exciting unless it is either as light as a Miata or they give us a really stout factory turbo engine that can easily take some extra boost...
They're actually not the same size. The Nissan Foria Concept is a slight lager car overall when compared to the IDx.

Nissan Foria Concept

Nissan IDx Concept

Overall height: 51.2

When compared to the Toyota 86
Overall length: 166.9 in
