You're right! Nissan is really stepping up here! Glad one car company is making affordable performance cars, WHILE keeping up with (and at times beating) the competition.
Exactly WHY I'm a huge Nissan fan, and totally despise Toyota.

If they build this on a modified Z platform it will be too heavy. The Z tips the scales at 3339 lbs. according to Autotrader, which is only 13 pounds less than a V6 Mustang. If they can keep the weight down closer to the older 240sx at 2700 lbs. then it might be something to talk about. Another car that seems to be getting to heavy for its own good, if they even decide to make it and bring it stateside.

Agreed, thus me not getting all excited about this news.

Looks hot, and quite a bit different stylistically from the rest of their cars, while still somehow remaining linked to them. Nice photochop. Now we'll see how reality plays out.
