Even if I knew, I can't say.

In Tada-san's post, he stated that "We're working hard to make it possible for current owner be able to update." (in Japanese)

Here comes the resurrection of the buy a 2014 or wait for the 2015 refresh threads!!!!!

Judging from when the 2014 went on sale it will be late September to early October. Just in time to prepare for next winter.

That's incredible when you think about it. Nissan only sold 251,410 240sx's from 1989-1998

So I'd say Scion / Toyota / Subaru are off to a pretty good start

But is that number inclusive of worldwide? 251K 240SX, or 251K S13/14/15 chassis?

It's hard to compare apples to oranges. Plus, first-year S13 sales was around 60-70K IIRC, and it tanked fast after that. First year S14 sales was around 25K.

In the US.

This is interesting news. I still think it will be cheaper to upgrade rather than trade in/up.

Purchased: 07/2012
Price: $26,250
Owe: $16,000
Estimated new price: $34,450 (price of base STi)
Difference: $18,450

I think it would take less money to make my 2013 better than the newer model. Correct me if I'm wrong...

Um where are you getting the price for the new model??? There haven't been any details about it even yet. Could be only cosmetic upgrades or minor performance upgrades.

I won't start one, but.......... FML

still don't think that there is any way in hell that they will add a turbo.

if they do, make it trd (and a sc), and sell me it. but I just don't see it happening

Not that we already have that Dilemma about Monogram or BRZ SE

[raven1231]

Wonder what Moto knows about this?!?!?!

Boom. I knew there would be an update soon. Tada-san had claimed there would be all along. The only thing I worry about with updates is styling. Sometimes they butcher it. I really love the way the 86/FR-S looks right now so I hope they don't deviate much if at all from that.

But yeah, hopefully this thing hits the showrooms here by the end of the year. When it does, it'll finally be time for me to buy.
