Conclusions from a 1,000km Road Test
Now, as I sit down to put together this test report on the Silvia, I feel that I have come to understand its “character” completely.

I had the opportunity to drive the Silvia for five laps of the Yatabe high-speed test course, as well as on a round trip from Tokyo to Kyoto, and would like to report my impressions. This was the first time that a fully registered Silvia had been driven over such a long distance.
