I have little faith in Nissan, Honda, or Mitsubishi any more. They've all let eco-wacko hybrid beancounters take over and are hell-bent on taking the Boringmobile title Toyota used to be the undisputed master of.

The only reason we have the GT-86 is because Akio Toyoda kicks ass. Without him, no LFA, no GT-86. We'd be looking forward to some "performance" Prius coupe a la the CR-Z. Unless Nissan/Honda gets a similar CEO with a "make a fun car, damn it" focus, we won't be seeing a new Silvia any time soon.
