One of the reasons I suggested the 400zx is to push the Z into their "middle sportscar", which would be one step behind the GTR in terms of performance.
This would then allow an open spot for a very entry level sportscar with a USABLE back seat, aka a rebirth of the silvia/240sx. The Maxima and Altima just seem pointless to keep in the Nissan fleet so they should just merge the two. Then with the 240sx revive they can offer a naturally aspirated 4 cylinder and a turbo 4 cylinder for those wanting more performance. This, I feel, would once again put Nissan as the leader of "fun" for the Japanese car companies,
In addition they could offer the 400zx in an NA version for those who don't want or afford the turbos. If Nissan also wanted to start switching to hybrid technology the 400zx and 240sx could have hybrid options as well. To be honest I'm just throwing some ideas out there.
