Nissan IDx, Datsun 510 reborn





Yes, a new Datsun 510. Apparently it's made to compete with the Scion FR-S/GT-86/BRZ. I don't even see it winning.

I actually think it's not bad at all.

I think the 86 should have looked like AE86.

I acutally really like it. Depending on price point, even a possible purchase in the future depending how the production model fairs. I've always been a Nissan fanboy.

But other than that I have seen every car on display in DTP just by cruising about in Richmond, thank you very much for collecting them together and get someone to sing a cover for "fuck you".

The 510 looks like a cartoon version of the current Dodge Challenger

it wont look that radical, just remember what the VOLT looked like until it went into production, i think you will see something more resembling a 510 when it actually hits the showroom floor.

If you look at many old imports, they resembled smaller versions of US muscle cars.







They all shared a similar look with the Americans.
At the time the imports were released, they didn't have the same sort of following that they do now. So the Japanese companies had to do their best to fit in, and it worked.

hopefully.
I can see this as cool alternative to the BRZ/FRS army.
Especially if they turbo the new car.

No bumpers.. won't look anything like that when it actually hits the North American roads.

The Nismo IDx is in some sort of homage to the BRE livery.

some actual specs...


Quote:
Specific powertrains teased include a 1.2-to-1.5 liter gas engine mated to a CVT (on the FreeFlow) and a 1.6-liter DI, turbocharged four cylinder on the NISMO car. If you're paying attention, that's the same mill found in the peppy Nissan Juke. Expect around 197 horsepower. Nissan also talked about a sporty CVT “with 6-speed manual shift mode and synchronized rev control.” But let’s just pray the company's smart enough to bring a conventional gearbox as well.


Chris Cantle
The NISMO car wears 225/40 19-inch tires and carbon fiber body panels, as well as considerable ground effects and front spoilers.

Palmer also suggested any production version would be rear-wheel drive, and that Nissan is even considering allowing a system where customers could 3-D print new body panels. No joke: there are visible attachment hard points on the NISMO car.
