See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Amazing condition 1972 Datsun 240Z. Original L24E 2.4L I6 engine. This is a true garage find. Mileage has never turned over. Runs and drives great with 56,000 original miles! (Yes... you have read that correctly... 56K) You can drive it right out of my garage and bring her home to yours!. The dash is absolutely perfect and shiny as if it were brand new. The passenger's seat cover is the only interior piece I would recommend replacing due to a bit of fading and a 2 inch long rip on the bottom along the seam. The car drives smoothly without any grinds from the trans. I did swap the Trans to a 280Z 5 speed trans with a Nismo R180 rear diff for increased mileage as well as a set of 2 piece enkei classic wheels. They simply do not make cars like this anymore. I have averaged 42MPG on the freeway in this Z. Again, this is a rust free car and a "survivor" meaning the paint is very clean but you will find very minor imperfections. (The car was indeed built 42 years ago)"

 No dents, a few imperfections with paint (has never been cut and buffed) as well as a small section of paint cracking below driver's side mirror. Driver's side mirror does not stay in adjustment. Passenger's side seat is a bit faded and has a small seam tear.

Rare, very clean and well maintained car, low mileage, 5 speed (done properly with rear diff as well) Rust free

I am not the original owner. I have owned the car for about a year now.

Fiat contemplating sub-brand to compete with Dacia, Datsun

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

You can add Fiat to the admittedly short list of automakers considering a low-cost brand to rival Dacia. The inexpensive Eastern European brand from Renault-Nissan has performed on the balance sheet like a premium model line, and the money the alliance is taking off the table is encouraging other players to deal themselves in. Pretty soon Nissan's Datsun sub-brand will join the Dacia party, going on sale in Russia, Indonesia and India and will claim even more rubles, rupiahs and rupees for the parent company. Volkswagen recently said it will make a decision this year on a budget line for the Chinese market. With the euthanasia of Lancia and plans to move the Fiat brand upmarket, company CEO Sergio Marchionne wonders aloud to Automotive News Europe whether there could be room for a new budget brand underneath Fiat.
We're told that the initiative has been in the idea box for five years and even moved to the stage of name considerations, like Innocenti, but worries about profit kept it from realization. If such a range were to be developed, Marchionne says it couldn't be built in Italy and stay within budget, and the company is "analyzing its manufacturing capacity outside of Europe to see if a low-cost brand is viable."

Datsun previews new budget sedan for Russia [w/video]

Thu, 13 Mar 2014

Nobody does cars on the cheap quite like the Renault-Nissan Alliance. The former part of the equation already has its Dacia brand of cost-effective, no-frills vehicles that have become a favorite of Top Gear co-host James May, and last summer, the latter revived its Datsun nameplate for a budget brand of its own.
The reborn Datsun launched in India this past July with its Go hatchback, returned in September with the Go+ minivan and revealed the Redi-Go concept just last month. And now it's given us our first look at an upcoming budget sedan developed specifically for the Russian market.
The as-yet unnamed vehicle (which we'll bet will incorporate the word "go" into its nameplate somehow) is set to debut on April 4, where it will launch the Datsun brand in Russia. Few details are available at this point, but the low-cost sedan was designed in Japan to offer Russian drivers "an engaging driving experience, peace of mind ownership and accessibility at the right and transparent price, with a competitive Total Cost of Ownership."

Roadkill pits every project car against each other

Sat, 22 Feb 2014

The guys behind Motor Trend's monthly Roadkill series have collected nine of their favorite project cars from their videos and pitted them against each other in a battle royale to determine a winner. It's 44 minutes long, but it's completely worth the investment of time.
The cars run the gamut from a 1973 Chevrolet Ramp Truck, a 1975 AMC Pacer and a legitimately impressive 1967 Chevy Camaro, and they are pitted against each other to see which is the fastest around an autocross course. The drivers include Roadkill's two hosts and Motor Trend's Johnny Lieberman and Carlos Lago. It's reminiscent of the best episodes of Top Gear and worth a watch.
So it's the weekend - the perfect time to relax. Grab your preferred beverage, get comfortable and enjoy 44 minutes of some seriously ratty but utterly cool project cars as they are throttled within an inch of their lives (or past it). Scroll down to check out the video.
