Nissan can make a philosophical competitor for the Fr-S in a silvia type vehicle. I think it's time for nissan to make a $27k RWD lightweight 2800lb 270hp turbo 2+2 coupe so i can daily it anyway.

Nissan Z can be a 370hp 3100lb car.
Renault/Nissan together have more than enough knowledge when it comes to turbocharging. But the question is, do they have the money to build yet another sports car? And ditch that 2+2 crap, remember the 280ZX, ugh.
