Kudos to Nissan for waking up and remembering their heritage.

This is what the Nissan USA website says: Introducing the high-performance Sentra NISMO® Concept; the very latest in a long line of compact Nissan performance sedans like the Datsun 510 and the original Sentra SE-R.

Now it's a matter of cost.

I don't think I could live with a Sentra everyday, even with the go fast bits.

Low end Nissans are horrid little machines to be in.

Offer a 2 door version with a factory limited slip and door hinges that sag. Ahhh nostalgia!

Nice looking, just hope the price is not crazy.

240 hp turbo 1.8 in the concept? Wow these are interesting times. I spent a small fortune swapping a Avenier sr20det setup in my G20 and made maybe 220 hp.

Very interesting car.

I loves me some fast Sentra. Had three already. If the price isn't insane, and they actually produce it, this could be in my future. I just hope it won't be ridiculously tall like the last generation Spec-V.

I had a Sentra rental and I found it to be depressing. Why is this not in the GRM forum?

I really just can't stand the styling of newer Nissan(or Infinity) cars, something about them just turns me off.

The current gen standard Sentra is ridiculously tall and awkward looking, and easily a contender for the worst looking new compact car available IMO.

Wouldnt be surprised if that concept photo/rendering is the most flattering photo they could take of it.
