this would be fun to drive! :D
do ya'll think the concept car is the Micra? i don't think so....the concept looks reminds me of the transformer robots, but it does look sharp. another winner for Nissan USA?
looks good. the rims suck, but that's easily fixed ;)
hopefully they don't change the styling if (when?) they release it to the unwashed masses...
they can change the styling all they want just as long as the engine spec stays the same.Originally Posted by M54 Powered

maganda nga, parang pan-laban sa Mini Cooper!
so are ya'll talking about the micra or the concept car which is the reason for this thread in the first place?i'm confused........
damn, pati ako nalito! akala ko ang posted Specs is for the Nissan Sport Car Concept, yun pala para sa Micra R.Originally Posted by sikuya

ano ba yan!
that's why i'm mixed up, somebody started talking about the Micra and then everything got all confusing.Originally Posted by Karding
Karding, the Nissan Concept has no specs available yet. i doubt that they will put the VQ V6 in it, the hood and engine bay is just too small for it. besides it will battle the Scion brand,so why need a V6?i'm guessing one of nissan's I4's, maybe Sentra's.
they didnt encounter the same problem as the mugen jazz dynamite? i read that the mugen jazz has the rev limited * 3k bcoz the mugen peeps r finding ways to keep it on the ground!

Nissan did their homework in maintaining a good front-rear weight distribution balance, aside from suspension upgrades, etc.
Big downside, no more rear seats and noisy engine (you butt is inches from it).![]()
i wonder how does this car compare with an Evo or Wrx on a track?Originally Posted by chieffy
