Nissan Silvia S15 Review

Nissan Silvia S15 Review

Because the Nissan Silvia S15 was produced only for the commercial markets of Japan, Australia and New Zealand it is rare to find a stock Nissan 200SX in American and Canada (North America). A majority of the S15s that are found in the USA are grey imports. (see below)


(Grey import cars are automobiles that get into a country through a non-regular distribution channel. It should be noted grey imports are 100% legal but often frowned upon because they threaten the network of official dealerships, however while bringing business to the aftermarket, service and parts markets.)

Despite the rarity of the stock version of the S15 in today's market, here are the major specifications to be aware of. For a full list of specs be sure to check out this unofficial page on the Nissan S15.
