Anyone forsee a New Silvia / 240sx to come ? - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

According to Nissan, no. They stated in no uncertain terms that they are not looking at developing a small sports car at this time just last month.

Honestly, I would prefer a production Juke-R over an S16.

I'd love to see another Silvia. Nissan have the ability to make one that is cheaper than the 370z and target market to sell to. However, there are no signs Nissan have come to terms to do so. I guess everyone will have to crawl and beg until Nissan give in. Never too late.

I wish the Altima coupe wasn't WWD.

Yeah they do have a hole left open for the "cheap lightweight RWD sports' car". They try to cover up with the Altima Coupe, but it's FWD c'mon.

Like David said, they said they weren't working on anything in that category (so far). They're just waiting to see the results the Toyobaru bring. I love Toyota and Subaru for taking this awesome risk unlike these other pansies who are scared to enter the much anticipated re-birth of a market.

Nissan have the balls to do it. They did bring the GT-R after so long and then they decided to engineer a Juke-R. You would think they would do something eventually. Why not? I'm certain they would make a proper Silvia if they ever do so.

It was not Nissan Japan who made the Juke R but rather Nissan Europe. Japan didn't even know about the project until it was done.

Lol I figured since one was the ZC6 (BRZ) and the other ZN6 (GT86/FR-S)

Why not Zx6 when speaking about both? Plus it has a nice ring to it lol
