The glass is all original, but was etched in the 80's as it was commonplace to do so. I think it adds to it's originality and authenticates it's era."

First time ever on the market, this stunning 280ZX has only 39,000 original documented miles, and was purchased out of a private Z collection. That's correct, only 39,000 original miles!!!!! A true survivor, almost completely original...This Z is a real car inside and out, and is investment quality in every aspect. Just serviced at a Nissan dealership, she is mechanically sound, fires right up and purrs like a kitten. Fresh Yokohama tires, new battery, and correct oil was oil this incredible throwback needed to make it road ready. Documented with the original history of maintenance and repair orders from the dealer, the original windowsticker, a sales and purchase agreement from 1999, original books and keys, a certified appraisal back in 2008 and previous registrations. I drove this car personally, and it is an absolute joy to drive!!  Just as tight as a 39,000 original well kept car should be~~~ Or maybe you want to continue to store her for a future Barrett Jackson sale, it's entirely up to you!  This is a pretty loaded car, with an original MSRP of $12457 back in 79!! Optioned up with factory air conditioning, two tone paint, aluminum wheel option, luxury package option, pushbutton am/fm stereo, power windows, power steering, cruise control, rear wiper washer, cloth upholstery, raised letter radials, computer sensor system, power mirrors, door map pockets, and yes, it is a stick!  The original brown on the two tone paint option was beginning to show it's age, so it was professionally painted in 2010 to give it back its showroom luster. The rest of the paint is all original and in excellent condition to match the new paint.  If you have any questions, please feel free to email me or call me, I will be happy to talk with you at 860-601-0236.  Thanks for your interest, and good luck! Again, if you are a Z lover or collector, I reiterate that this particular car has never been on the market before.  It has not seen the auction circuit, has not been listed on the internet sites or forums. Don't miss it!

Datsun to unveil second model later this month

Sun, 08 Sep 2013

Datsun, Nissan's new sub-brand for emerging markets, has announced plans to unveil its second model. Its first, the Go, was unveiled almost two months ago, and promised affordable, connected motoring for five in a handsome hatchback body. Datsun is following that up with a pair of new models for Indonesia.
The first of these two new vehicles will be shown on September 17 in Jakarta, eschewing the typical auto show debut. It's targeted at so-called "risers," the nickname for a group of highly aspirational customers in the Indonesian market. Datsun developed it locally with help from Nissan, and it'll cost under 100 million Indonesian rupiah (about $8,900 at today's rates).
We'll have the full boatload of information on the newest member of the Datsun family when it debuts on September 17. Scroll on to read the full press release from Datsun.

Datsun officially reborn with Go model for India [w/video]

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

In March of 2012, Nissan announced the return of its historic Datsun brand. Datsun used to represent the Nissan brand in a number of markets, but its badge hasn't been worn on a new model since 1981. In 2013, though, it has been relaunched as the Japanese manufacturer's budget offering in the emerging markets of India and Russia.
The model that will lead that charge, at least in India, is the Go, a car that pays tribute to the very first Datsun, the DAT-GO.
The operative term with the Datsun brand is: "budget offering." Don't step inside the Go and expect beautiful hides or brushed metals (it's being sold in India, after all). The instrument cluster features a simple speedometer, while the five-speed manual and the center stack above it are rather barren. It's not without luxuries, though, as iPod-style connectivity is available through a Mobile Docking Station.

Datsun's lackluster initial sales fall below Tata Nano

Wed, 15 Oct 2014

When Tata introduced the Nano back in 2008, everyone was amazed at how cheap it was. They called it a game changer, but no game was changed. In fact, it took Tata five years to sell the 250,000 units it had the capacity to build in a single year. As it turns out, even buyers in what economists call "developing markets" like India aren't necessarily interested in buying an ultra-cheap automobile. And now it appears that Nissan may be falling into the same trap.
A little over a year ago, Nissan revived its old moniker Datsun to serve as a budget brand - similar to what ally Renault did with Dacia. Its lineup (consisting of models like the Go hatchback, Go+ minivan, On-Do sedan and Mi-Do hatch) is largely based on old architecture, packaged with little more than basic equipment and sold at rock-bottom prices. But Bloomberg reports that, even in the brand's core markets like India and Indonesia, the new Datsuns haven't been selling.
According to local industry figures, Datsun has sold fewer than 10,000 units of its $5,100 Go hatchbacks in India since its introduction back in March. Maruti Suzuki, by comparison, sells twice that many of its similarly priced Alto hatchbacks every month. In fact, after peaking in April, Datsun only sold 607 units in India this past July, dipping 77 percent to drop below even the number of Nanos which Tata sold that month.
