Silhouette Silvia, very nice.

As much as I love the S14 and S15 though, I worry that Nissan might be making a mistake looking into expanding the sportscar branding down too far. They could just lighten the next gen Z, put a turbo in the base, a turbo V6 in the premium, and call it a day. Oh, and the GT-R needs an entry level version. Less rambunctious looks with a detuned engine, 75k price. Z covers the 25k to 45k range; GT-R covers the 75k and up side.

Naturally, with Infiniti fighting for internal relevance, this won't happen. Why sell a car for M3 pricing that destroys its competition when you can just compete at the same level and hope to make money, right? Right???

If you're feeling especially crazy Nissan, how about an updated one of these?

WHAAAAAAATTTTTTTTT!!!!!!????????

Have you never played Gran Turismo/Forza?

The Nissan R390 GT1 is one of the craziest supercars ever conceived. So crazy in fact only 2 were built. One is owned by Nissan. The other was sold to a wealthy collector, but no one is sure who.

I've played GT3 and Forza 4, must've missed it entirely, will now spend the entire evening researching the R390 to make up for lost time!

Good.

Have fun trying to drive the road version in Fourza. It's impossible.

The racing version is very good though.

100% Agree.

I love the Silvia brand, and, while I think I might like to see another one, the chance exists for Nissan to fuck it up.

That new Maxima (or whateverthefuck from the Detroit AS) looks pretty tight though.
