1979 Datsun 280zx on 2040-cars
Williamston, North Carolina, United States
I am selling this 1979 Datsun 280ZX for a friend of mine. It drives like a new car and is incredibly quick for an automatic. I own 3 280Zxs and have been amazed by this one. It is, essentially, rust-free and so very solid. It has all of the power options that the "Grand Luxury" package offered: power windows, cruise control (it works), air-conditioning(it works), rear window wiper, computer monitoring system and also, the rare auto window up or down feature. There was a small amount of rust (see photos) at the base and above the windshield that has been treated (see photos). This area will need paiting (it is in primer-- see photos)-- also, there is one small surface rust spot on the right front of the hood (see photo) This Z has a modern aftermarket AM/FM stereo with a CD player. The Z has it's original "jersey" covered seats which are far more comfortable than velour. The left rear tail light has a small hole in it. It has the desired 5 spoke wheels (and the original ones can come with the car if the buyer wants them). This is an incredibly solid 280ZX that in many ways is a time capsule. Today, it is so rare to see a 280ZX on the road and everyone stares and most people do not know what it is. These cars are so reliable and trouble-free and are truly coming into their own as a true classic sports car. Bid on this car with confidence. It's a great example.

Meet the man who took a year sabbatical to drive his 1967 Datsun Fairlady Roadster
Tue, 28 Jan 2014A quiet drive in the country can be the most relaxing thing in the world. What if it didn't have to end, and you could keep driving for a week, a month or even a whole year? That's what Scott Fisher is doing by taking a one-year sabbatical from work and driving his 1967 Datsun Fairlady Roadster around North America.
"I had owned a manufacturing business in Las Vegas for 16 years. I knew I needed to kinda' get out, and unwind, and get my mojo back," said Fisher.
Fisher's trip has covered over 30,000 miles through 44 states and 7 Canadian Provinces, and it is not over yet. He left from his home in Las Vegas, NV, last spring and drove to the Pacific. From there, he drove up the coast to the Canadian border and aimed the car for the Atlantic. He just posted on his blog about visiting the Nissan headquarters and museum in Franklin, TN, and his next stops are Mississippi and New Orleans, LA.
Fiat contemplating sub-brand to compete with Dacia, Datsun
Tue, 05 Feb 2013You 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."
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:
