POLL & INTEREST: 2010/2011 "240sx" Replacement - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

dorkidori_s13 · 02-12-2009, 12:58 PM

(mods please dont move this...i am actually going to use this thread in something i am putting together to send to nissan in a month)

Hey guys...so with the news today of nissan SUPPOSEDLY shelving the "240sx replacement" due to financial troubles...and from the amount of ignorance nissan seems to hold about the S Chassis community (as in...they dont really seem to have an idea of what kind of foothold we have in the motorsports and import racing world...and how many of us are now MUCH older and are able to afford a new itteration of our favorite car) i thought i would attempt something...

This thread has a poll attached to it...this poll AND thread will require a certain level of honest thought and MATURE commenting

I want this poll to live in the chat section for about a month...i need to collect a GOOD amount of data from actual 240sx owners about their feelings on the new "240sx replacement"

discussion is welcome about the car...but i DO NOT want immature little comments about your personal feelings on how much you dislike newer cars or how you think they should bring back the S13 or S15 or yadda yadda yadda...MATURE input is welcome, signatures of people who want to see the car are welcome, and most of all PLEASE VOTE IN THE ABOVE POLL

UPDATE 02-13-09:

ITS NOT CANCELLED!!!! ITS POSTPONED!!!!

it has simply been put on hold due to the worlds economy

dorkidori_s13 · 02-12-2009, 01:22 PM

and guys...please be completely honest...if you are purchasing a genesis or nissan has really lost you as a customer...PLEASE feel free to vote for that

the key to this poll is HONESTY and MATURE INPUT

SoSideways · 02-12-2009, 01:22 PM

Will have to see what it looks like, for reals, and its engine/suspension, before I can make up my mind.

*fliprayzin240sx* · 02-12-2009, 01:23 PM

Why do people keep dwelling on this shit? Honestly, most people who drive S-chassis now are broke HS/college kids who can barely afford gas. There may be a market for it, but its honestly not as big as people make it out to be. Think about it, with the price of used 350Z are now, how come you still dont see alot of them getting tracked?!?! You can easily pick up an 03 at this point close to $10k. Why push for a 240sx variant when you have 350Zs that are just as good, if not better than what the S-chassis will ever be.

No offense to alot of folks in here but how many people can actually afford a $400 car payments before $150-200 car insurance, before gas, maintenance and the works?

SimpleS14 · 02-12-2009, 01:23 PM

^-- very true, except I'm not some broke kid

By the time I'm done paying off the M35, a used Z will be quite tempting. The 370Z is so fine, it's hard to see myself in something else (I LOVE that car).

I know this is super off-topic, but a Sentra SE-R coupe with a MR20DE-T wouldn't be a bad move for Nissan....

WILDACEX187 · 02-12-2009, 01:28 PM

specs and styling will likely sell me on it.

dorkidori_s13 · 02-12-2009, 01:29 PM

personally...i dont want something with a V6 in it...i want a 4 cyl, RWD, turbo car that is SMOG LEGAL!!!!!! (im sick of paying 100-200 a year to get my car "smogged" because nissan screwed us over with that CRAP KA24 POS because it didnt want to outperform its precious Z...sorry im jaded)

and take one look at the genesis in its home country right now...the car is FLYING off the lots...tuners are going nuts with it...and its actually POPULAR!!!

Gnnr · 02-12-2009, 01:30 PM

Honestly. By "2011" I'm planning on getting a Z since nothing concrete has come out of Nissan lately. When something does, I'll reconsider.

Maybe , just maybe...the car will eventually come out in Japan first and gain momentum before reaching the states and other parts of the world?

Either way, if that were to happen...it won't be anytime soon...

VROOOM · 02-12-2009, 01:42 PM

id be more than willing to buy a new S chassis. but it would have to outperform my Mazdaspeed3.
although the 370z is really tempting. i could see getting one of those in a few years too

s13.dark1 · 02-12-2009, 01:49 PM

the replacement would be great! I am waiting for it to come out and cant wait to get one. If its anything like the new line of Z cars it should be a bed wetter

*fliprayzin240sx* · 02-12-2009, 01:55 PM

The way I see it, Hyundai might actually pull it off with the Genesis. Why? Nobody else is gonna be making a $20k rwd car. With Nissan and Toyota/Subby pulling the plug on their RWD variants, there wont be anybody else in the market. With the aftermarket support thats going to come out for the Genesis, it would be hard to ignore.

The only thing thats a toss up will be how willing people will be to buy a new car on this crappy global finance nightmare. Even if there wasnt a recession, the Genesis would have 2-3 yrs heads start on the "neo-silvia" It would be just like the PS3 playing catch up to the 360...

Personally, Im stuck with an S-chassis. I got too much money tied into this chassis to walk away from it. Im in the middle of an S15 engine rebuild thats sucking me dry, no way im not gonna enjoy this thing till I blow it.

emersonLP · 02-12-2009, 01:55 PM

I recently purchased a slightly used 350z because it fit into my price range. I anticipate keeping it for a number of years because I really like it... but if something were to happen to it, I would seriously look into the S-chassis replacement first.

JoeC1982 · 02-12-2009, 01:57 PM

my next purchase will be this summer/fall so the car wouldn't have been out yet anyways. i am going to get a G35 coupe or Acura TSX but i would definitely be interested in a "240sx" replacement in a couple years.

I will drive the Genesis when it comes out before i make a purchase but i'm not expecting to purchase one.

hyundai has that thing where if you lose your job within a year of buying hte car you can give it back with no ding on your credit. that might help alot too.

dorkidori_s13 · 02-12-2009, 02:26 PM

lets keep this thread at the top guys

dorkidori_s13 · 02-12-2009, 02:28 PM

do me a fav guys and spread this thread around to other forums (just copy and paste the link)...i need to get as much feedback as possible

s13dan · 02-12-2009, 02:31 PM

lol no hyundia purchases?

projectRDM · 02-12-2009, 02:33 PM

Who cares? Are people really so in love with their Schassis that they can only drive something from that family? I really don't understand that kind of loyalty.
I like my 240SX. Really I do. But in two years the very last thing I want to own is a replacement for the fanboy bandwagon drift machine that made this site and all other web boards total and complete shit, not to mention the ENTIRE import car community.

Audi RS6, Benz C63, Cayman S, IS-F, something along the lines of actually being mature is what I plan to be driving. No offense to anyone eagerly awaiting the replacement, but I think eventually you have to grow up.

dorkidori_s13 · 02-12-2009, 02:37 PM

honestly...the thing that makes the 240sx and the S chassis so awesome is how easy they are to work on, maintain and to have fun with

i love the G35 to death...and i would LOVE one for a daily...but honestly if i had a choice between a used G35 or a brand new 240sx replacement...i would take the 240sx replacement...im much more comfortable with idea of working on a 4 cylinder motor than i am a VQ series motor that is crammed into the engine bay

and i mean come on...nissan can afford to bring out and maintain sales with a SUPER CAR (gtr) but it cant cater to the entry level market with a car that would sell for 24-25k fully loaded and offer consumers an awesome bang for their buck??? 30 grand for a 370z is a little more than i want to spend....80k for a GTR is so ridiculous to my check book that i cant even fathom spending that much money on a car...and a entry level "sporty" FWD car is hardly worth the time for me to even take a 2nd look at (sentra SE-R and Altima Coupe)...wheres the love for the people who want a RWD turbo sports car that isnt V6 and doesnt cost an arm and a leg

PERFECT example of a popular, awesome selling sports car that has been around for over 20 years now......MIATA!!!

BustedS13 · 02-12-2009, 02:49 PM

i WAS interested. now though... if i'm going to buy a sporty nissan, might as well be a late model 350. the 370's knocking the price down on them quite a bit.

I get where you coming from, but don't act like the community for those cars is all that better. Its full of stuck up assholes who are mechanically clueless...just with more money/kids/bills. There's going to be people you don't like in any community.

ZX88 · 02-12-2009, 03:01 PM

the genisis as appearance goes is very nice. in order for nissan to be successful with the new 240 replacement they better stick to the essence that makes it special appearance wise, performance wise, price wise. im not looking fora Nissan cut out to be filling up my garage.

dorkidori_s13 · 02-12-2009, 03:06 PM

my biggest request is for nissan not to load it down with useless electronics...KEEP IT SIMPLE...no heated seats...no manual shift assist...no bluetooth...no bajillion speakers...just an AFFORDABLE rwd, turbo sports coupe with LOTS of youth oriented, customizable options (ie: scion is a PERFECT example)

xsparc · 02-12-2009, 03:10 PM

I think ill pick up a Genesis because i want something kinda inexpensive that i can mod in cali. Nissan has gone way down hill in the power to weight ratio so this looks like the best tuner option for the time being.

And driving a choped up 20yr old car is getting kinda old.

*exitspeed* · 02-12-2009, 03:16 PM

I don't even feel like debating this shit right now.

I'm extremely disappointed at the moment.

FYI we're not ALL broke ass kids.

I don't know what to vote because I will be ready to make a new car purchase in a year or two at the most.

*Chaws15* · 02-12-2009, 03:16 PM

I don't have enough capital (still college student), but once I get out, I want an S-chassis waiting for me on the lots.

JoeC1982 · 02-12-2009, 03:28 PM

I'd actually rather have the VQ25 than any of nissans current 4 bangers with a turbo, i've seen a few of the MR motors in the Versa/Sentra already having problems.

my specs for the car:
VQ25
6 speed manual, opt 6 speed DSG
limited slip available as stand alone option or part of sport pack
under 3k lbs
17's standard, 18's on sport
cloth/alcantara interior

options:
sport with lsd, bigger wheels, sport tuned suspension
brembo's as stand alone option
sunroof/hid's/bose could be a premium package

Nissan has gone way down hill in the power to weight ratio so this looks like the best tuner option for the time being. And driving a choped up 20yr old car is getting kinda old. __________________ No... no one stole my interior... its safely in my garage...

I'm extremely disappointed at the moment. FYI we're not ALL broke ass kids. I don't know what to vote because I will be ready to make a new car purchase in a year or two at the most. __________________
