the NISMO model is just awesome looking in my book, especially for a concept! im really excited to see how they clean it up for a production model. say goodbye to the non-connected pillar in the rear, wrap around rear glass. say hello to actual bumpers and headlights that match nissans current design language a bit more closely and say hello to a 5/6 speed manual tranny mated to a new generation 2.0 liter turbo engine pushing 215+hp!
everyone is so wrapped up with the looks of the car...theyre forgetting that this thing (and ive said this before) has to be, AT THE VERY LEAST, on the same performance level as the FRS if it wants to compete AT ALL! i was a little taken back when i first saw it by its boxy design, but what immediately came to mind was the first gen silvia, the 70s laurel, the 70s skylines and the 70s bluebirds. it was REALLY nice to see nissan acknowledging its heritage for the first time ever!
