Thread 28626220

Will Nissan bring back the Silvia or any entry level sports car ever again?
And no the Z doesn't count since it is a grand tourer.

>>28626220 (OP)
No. It's all about cuckovers, vans and suvs now.

>Will Nissan bring back the Silvia
I wish the Japanese never forgot to make "romance cars" (their terminology). There will always be young people- they used to make such dangerous and exciting machines in the 90s. I miss my 180SX every day. I also miss the beautiful girls that kind of car attracted too when I was in college. Video related

Voila, a sub-20k sporty RR car

they did Silvia so dirty bros

young people haven't had any money since clinton administration, and current young blood barely has enough to cover their own food while living in mother's basement. it's like asking why new york stopped building skyscrapers in the 30s, nobody had any FUCKING money for vanity until the 50s, and the ones who do would rather multiply it by turning everything they see into currency than spend it on depreciating assets.

Nissan basically destroyed the small car modding scene with their shitty sr20 engine. They filled a vacuum but they filled it with something shitty. I stopped going to car shows in the early 2000s because everything was a gay SR swap.

>>28626253
Better than everything being ls swapped

>>28626256
Its the same fucking thing. All the jap cars were SR swapped and everything else was LS swapped. The LS and the SR killed car culture

>young people haven't had any money
nice projection. We got money- why do you think the term "brokie" became popular as of recent? Many just forgot what nice cars are now. Most just buy a newer Korean car like the Hyundai N these days because they dont know any better.

you went to lame ones then because the scene I was around- people were using RB20, RB25 and 26 for drifting. Around 2014 era was when people started copying Formula Drift so >>28626256 LS1 engines became the norm. These days, the car shows and meets are even cooler; atleast the modified ones. The quality of this generation of tuning is not like in the years past.

It doesn't have back seats. It's a sports car (though not a great one, considering the base model doesn't have LSD). The Silvia was more of a GT since it was a 2+2.
>But what about the 300zx 2+2
That was 30 years ago and it was also a GT.
>>28626240
It's not even close to that simple. Besides that, the Versa fucking blows and nobody wants any part of it.

>>28626263
>"brokie"
Product of flex culture, which is a product of attention addicts, which is a product of social media. Nobody but hypebeasts with zero fiscal intelligence and their "influencers" uses the term unironically.
As for the rest of your post, I agree - it seems like anti-ricer sentiment has been in the modding scene enough for most people with a few thousand dollars to start focusing on internals and other functuonal mods. There are still some FnF-obsessed retards who think a bodykit+stickers is cool but they've died down significantly

>>28626220 (OP)
jesus christ that's horrifying. looks like a human head with the face ripped off. wtf are these car designers thinking

>>28626327
Concept cars tend to have radical design choices.
The nuDatsun look is tame compared to picrel.

>>28626263
you sound like an out of touch fag

>>28626238
young timmies don't like cars sadly, i'm 27 and a lot of people younger than me don't have their liscence or have any interest in getting it, they get their parents to drive them around, take public transport or uber

>>28626734
yeah but you're a Boomer who still lives at his mom's house at age 30

>>28626220 (OP)
yikes

that French fag really did a number on Nissan. The Silvia is such an iconic brand over the decades, they should go back to basics. The new Z was cool- but its still expensive compared to what position the Silvia held in consumer market. It made such an impact, the S15 is still popular today

>>28627053
haha true

>>28627041
t. lives at home (San Jose) at age 23

C7 are for hairy gay men though

are you retarded or just old? There are many different kinds of engine swaps being done today. The fuck are you talking about killed the car scene?

>>28627077
most reliable BMW

>>28627053
Something like the 86 should've been what Nissan made to replace the silvia. Except with a better I4 engine and a turbo option.

I thought only Andrew Tate fans said that.

>>28626242
I had a 240sx coupe 1989 the same color

>>28626263
Handbags and Chains are cheaper than cars, buddy

I think the problem is Infiniti the 350z only exists because it shared a platform with the g35
The s chassis was basically unique to the Silvia

>>28626220 (OP)
No, the Silvia was killed by the 3 series by eurocucks and boomers

>>28627872

the same boomers are enjoying the old Silvia today
