The Nissan 240SX is a sports compact car that was introduced to the North American market by Nissan in 1989 for the 1990 model year. It replaced the outgoing 200SX (S12) model. Most of the 240SXs were equipped with the 2.4-liter inline-four engine ( KA24E from 1989 to 1990 and KA24DE from 1990 to 1998).
-- The 1998 240sx was not the "last 240sx in North America", it was the last 240sx period. The 240sx was unique to North America, and was a distinctly different car from the 200sx, 180sx, or Silvia. The S15 paragraph was left for continuity, but really does not belong in a topic discussing the "240sx".
The Nissan Silvia (Japanese: 日産・シルビア, Hepburn: Nissan Shirubia) is the series of small sports cars produced by Nissan.Versions of the Silvia have been marketed as the 200SX or 240SX for export, with some export versions being sold under the Datsun brand.

KA24DE Engine in an S14 240SX The 2.4 L (2,389 cc) KA24DE was used in many Nissan cars and trucks.

The Silvia was sold at Nissan Prince Store, and the 180SX was sold at Nissan Bluebird Store locations. In Japan, the 180SX replaced the Gazelle. The S13 Silvia was discontinued in 1993, but the 180SX successfully convinced Nissan to keep it in the market for the full length of the next generation Silvia (S14).
Between 1975 and 2002, Nissan retailed the Silvia as the 200SX in many export markets. Six generations were made in both coupé and hatchback body styles, with new models released in 1979, 1984, 1989, 1993, and 1999. These cars received a variety of different nameplates depending on the importer.
