i already have an s chasiss. when i buy another car, it will be a truck/suv and a trailer so i can tow my 240sx. i dont need 2 sports cars. it would be nice and all, but just a waste of money.

oh and yeah it was a rwd coupe with a turbocharged 4 i would buy the 240sx in a heartbeat. it it's an na v6, not so much, i would take a turbo i4 over a bigger hp v6 any day just for the modding benefits. plus, what does nissan/infiniti need another six cylinder coupe for.

and to the guy who said he would only buy it if it was a v8 or supercharged v8, that's blasphemy, everything the s chasis is not supposed to be about.

all they need to do is bring the s15 here and they would outsell any car that would be considered near it's competition, no more purpose for a 135i. my two cents.

I'd love to get a new 240, but i don't make enough money to buy a new car. Maybe i'd get a used one and back in the same problem i am now with my 240. lol

I don't see why they would make it heavier than the z.

and the genesis is closer to 3k.

I always say to myself, if i had the chance to buy an s13 brand new right now, i'd be willing to pay 15k for a brand new 0 miles s13, even if i could find a used evo for that price, i rather go with the s13. Call me stupid, but i'm in love. If a new 240 were to come out and it wasn't all electrically controlled like the new gt-r and was more of a drivers car, i'd be game. An added plus would be factory recaro's, but i know that wont happen.

Well imho, I agree with the V8 statement, but not the rest. Their 6cyls (V6 AND INLINE) are what MADE Nissan what it is today! The S-Chassis helped, but c'mon!! The 240 and 260Z?! The Maxima?! The SKYLINE?! THE GT-R??!! They're a SPORTS CAR company! Honda is good with 4cyls, they're good with 6's. THAT'S what they need with another 6cyl! RAW POWER! TRUE TO LIFE BALLS!!

But i'd do what others have said if they had another 240 out (240, 250, SX, Z whatever...). I'd wait a few years to let them work the kinks out...and wait til the first model drops in value, then buy it for FAR LESS than new. THEN swap in a 3.5 or 3.7L V6 and turbo that!!

I ALWAYS SAID that the FIRST 240SX should've come with a 6cyl from the factory.

And the 135i can beat a new or used M3, and the 335i due to it's LIGHTER WEIGHT, RAW POWER, AND TURBOS. Power to weight ratio is nice. So idk about a new 2.0T 240 "beating anything near it's competition" without more gusto - from the factory.
