Ew it's uglier than the concepts from a year or so ago...

i'll take the S13 anyday over that.

"The next-generation Silvia will supposedly be built atop Nissan's popular FM platform (370Z, Infiniti G, etc.), come in a 2+2 seating configuration and tip the scales around 2,800 pounds."

This does not compute.

Concept drawings, lets hope some major changes come.

Caravanshaka 12-11-2009 03:14 PM

dude, they murdered the silvia...wtf?

My favorite 240 would be a blend of the S15 front with the 180sx rear 2/3's...that's just sexy. Put in a 250 hp turbo 2.0 liter and keep it between 2600-2800 pounds and I would get one :)

exactly! I had a 180sx with an SR20DE-t running 14 lbs of boost for a few years. i would take that car in a heartbeat if it was modernized with interior and a little bit of styling.

Nissan getting a bit scared of the FT-86 eh? I wish they had RWD cars like this when I got my RSX-S in HS. These two cars are going to be riced out I'm afraid if they make them around $25k. The potential is great for serious enthusiasts tho if they are lightweight and you can go FI heavy etc.

vipor 12-11-2009 03:19 PM

i wanna few 40's if i ever get some money to burn...

1999 Silvia
1997 240SX

1994 240SX Hatch with S15 Silvia Front

They specifically say in the article it won't be based on that concept.

If it's coming out in 2011, I doubt it's a case of being scared by the Toyota - both cars have no doubt been in the works for years.

And yeah - I don't see near 2800 lbs. on this platform.

mmmm...sileighty...

too bad i had to sell the 240 to get the Z...

vipor 12-11-2009 03:45 PM

get a grille grrrrrrrrrrr lol

i'll be uploading pics of my 97 240 and it's front-end rebuild sometime soon-ish.

never took any pics of my 92 240 coupe

phelan 12-11-2009 03:49 PM

i think when my audi dies (it's going to soon) i'm gonna try to find another 240SX to play with

vipor 12-11-2009 03:58 PM

they're so fun :D my 40s are the reason i fell in love with Nissans. nothing beats a 92 SE Coupe that has bad rings and smokes some that can beat V6 mustangs and Camaros and is a blast to drive. Hell, it only cost me like 1600$ and just needed a slave cyl.

kenchan 12-11-2009 04:03 PM

oh man, that new one's pretty ugly in general. looks almost like that new ford sedan...fusion or something but in a munchkin form factor.. long time ago my bro had a silvia. was nice.

vipor 12-11-2009 04:04 PM

yeah ford is what i thought looking at the image

jmtt90 12-13-2009 06:22 PM

Eww reminds me of a chrysler crossfire O.o

PapoZalsa 12-17-2009 08:22 PM

That looks like a Ford Fusion.

Endgame 12-20-2009 10:19 PM

That is the Foria concept; it came out about 3 years ago. I DOUBT it would look like this. I would pick one up as a track car!!!

kndacomplx 12-21-2009 09:57 PM

I hope they come out with something sweet heres my old s13.
