1977 Datsun 280z 2door Coupe on 2040-cars
Waunakee, Wisconsin, United States
I have for sale a gingerly used 1977 two owner Datsun 280z 2 door coupe. I purchased this car 2 months ago from the original owner who kept her garage stored for 37 years. This was my dream car when I was in High School……unfortunately my wife hates the car and wants me to sell it:(
Ok for the specifics. She is a real time machine. In near perfect condition. I would rate the exterior 8 out of 10 and the interior 9 out of 10. The Z is painted in Datsun Color 305, light blue metallic. She received a new paint job last summer and shows it! The interior is near flawless, no rips, tears, fading etc. original owner really cherished this car. She comes with the original service manuals and sales brochure from 1977. The tires are new within the last 2 years and have very little wear, all lights, bulbs, blinkers, wipers etc work perfectly. The only thing that i've found not to work is the clock. I cannot begin to say how clean this car is. The title is clear. She just needs someone to love her. I live in Madison, WI. I can help arrange shipping via auto transport at your cost. I offer no warranty. Take a look at the pics, ask any question you want. You won't find a cleaner Z on ebay, reserve is set at a very reasonable price. |

Malaise Era All-Stars
Fri, 17 May 2013A few weeks ago, we bid a fond happy 40th anniversary to the automotive dark ages of 1973-84 that have come to be known as "The Malaise Era" - the performance ice-age when 160 horsepower was a lot and a 0-60 time of under 10 seconds was remarkable. Like music in the 1980s, everything in automobiledom didn't suck, however. There were a few bright spots. Here are five of our favorites:

First new Datsun in decade sketched, set for Indian reveal
Mon, 01 Jul 2013Nissan's Datsun nameplate revival will begin with two models bound for the Indian market. Nissan has released sketches of a five-door hatchback based on the Micra (codenamed K2) and a top-down view of a hood that could potentially be from a sedan.
The company's press release says all will be revealed on July 15 in New Delhi, India. The Datsun lineup will be first offered in 2014 to that country's ride-deprived residents as well as Indonesia and Russia. Later in 2014, South Africa will join the list.
We've heard Nissan plans for Datsuns to share platforms with company-owned Lada. In January, we heard the projected price tag could be around $3,000 USD to compete with Chinese imports. The official press release (which can be read in full below) says nothing about either of these reports, however.
Renault planning a Tata Nano rival. Again.
Wed, 28 Nov 2012Four years ago, Renault confirmed that it would partner with India's Bajaj Auto to develop a rival to the Tata Nano. At the time, as everyone waited for the Tata Nano to arrive, you could have used a Richter scale to measure the tremors the executive suites of any automaker with an interest in the low end of emerging markets. Then the Nano, still the cheapest car in the world, didn't sell so well - at the end of last year its sales were just six percent of its most conservative projections - and everyone seemed content to let Tata spend the money to figure out if there really was a market for the cheapest car in the world.
Renault believes there is, kind of. Automotive News Europe reports that it will partner with Nissan to build two low-priced cars for emerging markets, one for €3,000 ($3,888 U.S.) and another for €5,000 ($6,400 U.S.). The price of the least expensive offering is nearly $1,400 more than a Nano, which costs $2,500, and that can't be considered a small sum in comparison. But one of the hindsight knocks on the Nano has been that even in emerging markets buyers don't want a car whose biggest lure is that it is cheap; they'd rather give their aspirations a bit more of a workout.
Renault's offerings are scheduled to hit the non-Western market in late 2014, which is coincidentally the same year that will see the return of the budget-minded and emerging-market-specific Datsun nameplate. They'll be built in Renault facilities in Chennai, India, with no mention made of Bajaj this time around.
