to sell more cars

new rx9 platform, can let vw sell it as a porsche. mazda uses vw transmissions and larger motors like the 3.0t and gets to sell its diesels in america along with a truck from vw to sell as both vw and mazda, and vw gains more models to sell in america and better 4 cylinders along with economical platforms to build vehicles off of but the bluesport should be resurrected and shared with both but with a wankel not a diesel motor

>Mazda market vs. Porsche market

Porsche owners aren't stupid, they won't buy a Porsche just for the badge like BMW owners will when the new Supra comes out. They'll just buy the Mazda and VW gets no money off of it

Hope so. We can really use some alternatives to 3-series in yurop.

>open diff drifting on dry
Can't imagine anything worse

Isn't it just an MX-5 with a different body? Just get an MX-5 for cheaper.

>>15909410

>>15909424
and a turbo

>>15909431

Would get honda fit over toyobaru. It actually does what they say it does

>>15909067
No. It'll be a cheap and easy Miata for modding, nothing more.

I wish there will be a coupe version. If you have 180cm+ /6 smelly feet+ than roadsters suck.

>with Fiat in the shitter
Why would you say something like that?

>>15910208
But it's rwd, cheap, and has a turbo

isn't that what the silvia is?

>>15910562
>Why would you say something like that?

Don't they have really low sales?

>>15910388
just stick an aftermarket roof on it

I don't see how this a problem considering it's so cheap in the first place- it's literally the cheapest rwd turbo money can buy

>160hp
For having a turbo it's pretty slow
How much boost could you run before it blows up?

>>15911202
>How much boost could you run before it blows up?

With a tune, a lot. The compression ratio is going to be low since it's coming from the factory already turboed allowing for a lot of wiggle room without the the need to modify the engine.

It's literally the Silvia we never got in the US except lighter

>>15911231
And 2 seater, part of why I like my 240 is that it's still somewhat practical

Now you have a 240sx that had a baby with a Miata. Also the Fiat will have way less problems than your 240 since it's shared with Mazda win-win.

it's literally the perfect car and will be competing in rally meaning more improvements down the line
get friends who have a car now

Can the engine be modded for revs? 6250rpm redline is pathetic for a 1.4 liter

>>15911450
Sure it can

Modern DBW engines are basically computers that can be modded at will
