That'll be awesome when they actually make them. Edit: and ditch the CVT.



Which is to say never.

I am undecided on the styling, but I like the idea of Nissan recognizing the performance orientation of the nameplate. The 510 is the Bluebird which is called the Altima here. Light weight, RWD coupes would be a hell of a lot better than the current Altima, no matter how they look.

Looks cool, then you realize:

It's Nissan.... which means it'll:
Have a CVT
Have a poorly performing motor (1.6 wtf)
Be heavy for no reason

Great looking car, great potential, Nissan will screw it up.

Hairdressers car. That's it's future. Unless they dropped a 200+hp turbo motor and gave it a 6 speed, kept weight under 3000lbs. Which they wont.

Man, I don't really like the looks of those. I'm more of a retro car dude though. I'd rather have something a little off the wall and random than a newer remake. It actually seems like retro cars are making a comeback around here. There are a lot of 70's cars that are getting better "stances" and wheels. Man, there are a few really nice 240Z's cruising around here.
This guy keeps acquiring some nice rides and fixing them up.
