Nissan vs Toyobaru
Not 100% sure if this is the right place to post this, also I didn't see anyone has mentioned this on here so figured I would share this with everyone and see what you all think.
Nissan's new "mini-z" that they are working on to target the Toyobaru (86-frs-brz) It's a FWD car lawlz Nissan Working on Mini-Z to target FR-S/BRZ - Motor Trend |

I agree that you cant make a FWD car and then claim it "will be aimed squarely at the Toyota GT86/Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ." If Nissan does do this they better make sure its rwd..

Prob won't happen. If its fwd it won't even compete. Civics are also min. 1.8L now no more 1.6L, the SI has a 2.4L now and makes over 200hp. The concept mini-z doesn't look too bad be great if they can make it RWD with a bigger motor than that 1.6 Turbo from the Juke.

Did anyone actually read the article? AWD with torque vectoring........ or FWD(base). Turbo. Better power range. If it looks like that first main pic (which I doubt) I think its better already. And under 22k? Yea its the better deal. Wouldn't be hard to get more out of it either. But rwd is always more fun to drive. I wouldn't buy either of the cars personally. Reminds me of the classic penny racers when I was a kid.

Yes and no...Nissan is reviving the name to build cheap, econo cars to import into China/India type places. I just hope they think about building another 510, they were cheap right? But my impression is they're building something cheaper to compete with Tata Motors in India.

Nissan, quit bs'ing with fwd crap, no one wants more tc's running around. RWD or nothing, not awd, not fwd, RWD. Is it not blatantly obvious that the S chassis are incredibly popular and will be popular now for years? Build us a better RWD light chassis to beat the FRS, bring out the S16 240sx. I swear.

This.
There is no way this can be real with any sort of traction to the concept. How the fuck do they expect to target the FRS/BRZ with a front wheel drive car. That is down right disrespectful to auto enthusiasts. This is actually embarrassing. If this is real I would be ashamed to be the team behind the concept. I get it, Nissan builds cars to make money. Understandable. But calling out the FRS/BRZ with this bullshit? Wow. Edit: Wow, just got so heated I created a login and posted a comment on this garbage. INTERNET RAGE
