Let's say they do come out with an SE-R version of the new Sentra... it's still going to look weak and it's still going to be a $20K + "sporty car" based on a plebeian econo car chassis. The BRZ FRS are dedicated sports cars with RWD. Maybe if the Sentra came with a 275HP turbo 4... nah, I rather buy the Focus ST or save some money and buy a Veloster Turbo.
Nissan, your cars suck balls in every way.

As mentioned before, theres a new pulsar coming out that is boosted. Maybe the USDM Sentra will come with the same engine.

Ever since Renault took over most of Nissan, their cars have gone down hill

That´s what I was told. The new Pulsar is the same as the Tiida GTS Turbo sold in China. And in the Americas, the SE-R is likely to get the same powertrain as this Pulsar.

Have you seen the new Sentra? I don't care what engine they put in there the car still looks like a turd.

The 6spd is only in the bottom two trims on the Sentra from the looks of things. I would have hoped that by having the Versa, the Sentra would get a nice V6 option.

Bring it inline with the 05-06 Altima SE-R. It is almost as big now and with there not being an actual "sports" package in the Altima or the "Four-Door-Sports-Car"-Maxima, I think the market for it is just right.

I know that it may not be in the same vein as the original SE-R, but to achieve that I really think the awful Versa would have to be stepped up a notch.

I think that it is also time for Nissan to employ the V9X diesel in their truck lineup... Just saying. Luckily, Chuck is on his way out soon. He did a great job of turning the place around, but as evident, I think he has lost a lot of the enthusiasm and fun that the old burger badge used to offer.

Also, I am being this long winded because the mods have decided that I now need 100 posts to view the MoshPit area. So I am posting as much relevant stuff as I can. I do apologize for the needless multiple posts!

only 2 things i don't like about my Forte5 SX ....
the road noise thats typical of most small econo-boxes and the lack of quality aftermarket performance goodies.
i took a step towards fixing the first dislike by ordering up some better tires Pirelli P-Zero Nero'. think i'll spray some sound deadening material inside the fender wells next.
