New Silvia will push 370Z upmarket and in price?

[newtkindred]

I stumbled on this. Looks like a Silvia could be coming. Could this mean the 370Z is going upmarket? It seems the 370Z has been styled and engineered to compete with Porsche and others like it. What will the starting price for the 370Z be? Over $35K??

I don't know how accurate any of this information is in the link. But I thought it may be interesting.

There will probably be a Silvia in the US. But it will not drive the bas price of the Z over $35K.

Hopefully it'll push our favourite demographic (the 16-20yo male) out of Z's

What's up with that ugly looks, hopefully they fix it(??) damm man that's really ugly front looks like mazda, and rear looks like altima...ehhhh.....

[chinabean]

looks almost like the altima coupe

Excellent idea. Nissan and forced-induction will be interesting. Forced-induction is an easy engineering and manufacturing add-on. Reliable forced induction is a different story.

no way that the base price is over $35k

why the hell would Nissan do this with no Silvia even out for the forseeable future?

watch, the base price will full just below $30k

Nissan learned their lesson when they almost killed the Z with the 300zx

this is a 370Z not a 370ZX

looks like an Altima SE-R and got drunk and banged the ugly fat chick (the Nissan Rouge). Apparently they didnt use pertection and this came out.
HOOOORRAAAYYYYY for Wii Tod Cause YEAH!!!!


Not a fan of this rendering, I've seen one out there styled more after the G35 thats pretty sleak.

EDIT:

that car does not scream 240sx to me at all. The 240 has always had long lean looking shapes......not tall, stocky and overall big.

[Mazinger Z]

Isn't that just an Altima chop?

[newtkindred]

I doubt the Silvia will look like that. It has none of the current Nissan design cues. Well, only the Micra. But no on ones knows about that here in the States. But I do think the 370Z climb up the ladder a little and will cost a few K more than the current Z.

If it has similar styling to this I am all over it...


Love the s15 and S14 absolutely beautiful cars... That red car in the link does look awfully close to the appearance of an Altima coupe...

Yeah, that chop is miles ahead of the one in the link. Linked picture=major fail.
