A 3rd Nissan sports car! Who's with me on this?
#1
We all know a lot of people have said that it would be great if the ilvia was sold here. But, with the new Z coming, the current S15 Silvia sold in Japan can match it in 0-60 and probably surpass it in handling. Tunability of the engine is better, too. It would also cost less, which would almost totally squeeze out any hope for Z sales.
So here's my idea: Bring just the S15 chassis to the US. Don't use the SR20DE. Instead, use the QR25DE from the Sentra SE-R. While providing a more appealing gap in power from the Z, the engine still provides a decent amount of torque and the 6sp tranny will help driver wring the most out of it. Price it at about the same as or a little more than the Sentra SE-R, and the folks'll be lining up to buy'em for sure.
Who's with me on this? Who knows if Nissan is going to produce a 2-door Sentra or not. If they don't, it'd be nice to have a rwd coupe instead.
