If this is even close to the S-Chassis I'm going to , it looks to much like the Zed.I'm down with that. Ditto if it looks anything like the Esflow - whether you love or hate electric cars, the actual style, size and proportions of that car were great.

Really compact in the metal, just how it should be.
I honestly think that the Esflow looks horrible. They should make this new "Silvia" like the old S13/S14 with modern safety features and performance.
I'd love that personally, and the shape was a big part of the charm on those cars, but you are totally right. Outside JDM fans & some sports car fans, not gonna fly.You mean an ultra generic 80/90's shape? Because that reflects the current design language of Nissan
No this looks like a S chassis.The ESFLOW(S-FLOW? as in a return of the S?) looks horrid and only 197-200hp? I say, 270+hp or don't bother at all Nissan, not that my opinion really matters haha!

Never seen this Silvia Concept, or ESFLOW, but they both look really nice, at least to me. đź‘Ť

I'd rather they keep it simple - low weight, modest power and nice styling. People who want more power have the aftermarket option; people who don't need that much power shouldn't have to pay over the odds for it.

Very much agreed, horsepower is overrated.
Out of interest, why?
It's the GT86 conundrum. Give it more power, and you have to give it better brakes, bigger wheels and tyres, all that sort of stuff, which pushes the weight and price up.

As for styling, the ESFLOW is likely to be more an idea of size and proportion than it is of styling direction.
Of course, this is just the preference of an overall car fanatic/Nissan fan. My earlier statement "...or don't bother"....was too harsh and not to be considered as fact.
I think it would be kind of cool to see something come from Nissan with comparable performance to the Camaro Z28 and GT500 Mustang while also being in that price range.
Which has nothing to do with what is being discussed in this thread, what with a 4 cylinder turbo model, so... just another excuse to bring up Ford?
Can't believe someone hasn't made a 86 competitor with something closer to 300hp. They could have stolen so many sales.
