you have alot of people buying fwd cars for 17 plus going to Nissan for a RWD turbo.

the Altima is overpriced big time and the Z shoudl be a little cheaper. the Silvia would far right inbetween. the Altima should only be around 20-22k. the Silvia should be around 27k

first of all, "should be" and "is" are two different things. the altima averages in the high 20's to low 30's for a decent one. the v6 model performs OK and accelerates almost as quickly as the Z. if the average consumer could choose between a v6 FWD and a 4 cyl turbo RWD for the same price, they would choose the v6. and that's what it will come down to. those 2 cars are way too similar in size, style, and as you quoted above, price. it won't happen, trust me.

if Nissan does introduce a new coupe to their lineup -which is unlikely any time soon - it will be a small efficient coupe... something the size of the old 200SX (2 dr. sentra)
