It's hard for me to do this, but I'm offering up for sale my Datsun 1983 280ZX TURBO by Nissan (has both Datsun and Nissan badging).  My father bought this back in the '90's and then gifted it to me a few years later.  It's been loved for a long time and is a ton of fun, but sometimes we have to give up our fun.  I'm in the military and deploy often so I do not have to time to tinker with my baby and be the father and husband I need to be.  That said, about the car:

Starts and runs well.  This engine could take a bullet and keep going.  The five speed transmission shifts well and the turbo spools and the engine pulls hard.  With the tops off on a sunny day, this car is a dream to drive.  It regularly turns heads and always gets comments in the drive-thru, parking lot, and gas station.  Even at stop lights.  These sporty cars are getting harder and harder to find and everybody loves them.  There is a ding above the left rear fender (my dad recently did that...painful, but it was fair retribution for when I scratched his '77 280z when I was a teenager) and some minor rust with some paint blistering (see pics).  There are a couple scuffs on the passenger seat leather with the driver's seat in good condition.  Has rubber floor mats.  Has an occasional electric gremlin causing the car to idle rough until it warms up.  If you have ANY questions, please ask and I'll do my absolute best to answer.  This car is worth far more than the opening bid with no reserve, but it's priced for a quick sale.

If you're looking for a stylish commuter or fun toy, this is a great option.  Happy Bidding:)

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.

First new Datsun in decade sketched, set for Indian reveal

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

Nissan'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.
