B16 Sentra?!?

Anyone have any info on the next Sentra?? The B15 has been out for a few years now and the replacement should be near the end of developement, or at least there should be some designs floating around. Anyone, Bueller, Bueller??

Hehehe...a couple friends and I were dicussing this the other night too....I dont know, but it seems like sentra will be no more....but they cant do that. The Maxima is being re-designed so often, so why not sentra? Nissan will be coming out with hybrid vehicles soon, so could they replace sentra? Or maybe they just wont re-design yet. I dunno.

I dont think the sentra will be discontinued. They need that economy car. If they do come out with the hybrids, im sure they will make the sentra a hybrid ( ). But if they do discontinue it, they will make another compact car ready to take its place.

The next sentra will be the same as the Renaults comming out. i remember seeing the pictures on the sr20 forum, but dont have time to find it. the body will probably change from the renault hatch. i would expect a hatch version and back to an independent suspension. They will probably keer the current motor, but probably improve on it.

the sentra has been out for a long time now........and old things seem to get discontinued.......i doubt they will discontinue it tho since they barely started production on the spec V. they need to keep the sentra to be the econobox like tekno said.....but at the same time they should come out with an affordable 2dr......THATS RIGHT, A 2DR.....NOT A 4DR. that can keep up with the new imports(meaning way more HP and maybe stock turbo) i know everyone say the 350Z is out and the g35 this and that...but they keyword is AFFORDABLE

YO I think a two door version is not even a issue ..What Nissan needs to do is Turbo or Supercharge a Sentra soon.!!

I just got the new Super Street and Mitsubishi is coming out with a Real Lancer complete with Brembo Brakes and Recaro seats...
Dodge has their new Neon out thats turbo charged already....
Even Mazda has that new Six thats supercharged or something

We jumped ahead of the game when we dropped the SPEC-V but now it seems like we're falling behind again....

Heck, I'd be content having a better styled Micra with a GA16 and good suspension setup. That would be right in the affordable range with hatchback usefullness, but I'm a bit of a nut that way. Mad acceleration doesn't matter to me but nice nimble handling does.

i agree, but here's my problem....all the other imports are 2-dr sports cars(lighter) and they are just better, i mean sure its not a BIG issue or nothing but back then they had the 300zx,200sx,240sx and they were 2 door, just my preference i guess

i guess it doesnt really matter to me....i just want a car that can keep up with the big boys(WRX, GS-R, etc) all the domestic cars i.e. neon are creeping up on us imports, especially nissans, nissan hasnt made a good car in a long time....the spec v is good but it does fall short.

yea, thats what's keeping me in love with the spec v and the future sentra spec v's......the way i see it is...the first sentras(ga16's) had 115 hp, the second sentras/200sx's(se-r's had 140hp) the third sentra(b15's) had 126hp, the fourth sentras(se-r's/spec v's) had 165/175hp, and i think the next generation if it keeps in pattern will have over 200hp

i just got off work and i'm tired as hell so this info may not be correct
