Stumbled upon this today. Rocket Punch Auto Blog reports:
"Admist all the GT-R coverage dominating the media, It has been reported that the Nissan "Silvia" has been confirmed by both the CEO of Nissan Carlos Ghosn and Nissan's COO Toshiyuki Shiga, and will be making its comeback in 2010 with a price point between 2,000,000~2,500,000 JPY."
They even have some artist renderings. Check it out:

Obviously, nothing official sounding. But my question to you: do you think that there is a market for the non-turbo 240sx in the US to justify a return? We all love the S-chassis cars now, but when they were being sold, people didn't love them as much. What kind of market would there be if we got a 4 cylinder turbo Silvia stateside in the low-20k ballpark? What other vehicles would be on its competitor list?
