i like the fact Nissan is thinking outside the box but problem is the designs are just terrible. I had a funny conversation with some fellow female workers the other day and i asked them straight up if 2 guys came to your door for a date one in a Nissan Leaf the other in a Dodge Ram which vehicle are you jumping into. Needless to say the ladies laughed at the thought of getting into the Leaf. Perhaps these are the types of conversations designers should be asking themselves before designing these butt ugly cars.

Too bad the box the were thinking outside looks like a rat snake!

I'll take the wheel on the Nismo.

I owned a Datsun 280Z like this one. Beautiful car and lots of power. Total rust bucket though. All Japanese cars had rust issues in the 1970s. Never the less, I miss that car.

Few things consistently bring me to tears as well as the Nissan NV does. When I see one, whether it's modified as a commercial delivery vehicle, or being driven by some utterly defeated suburban dad, I laugh and laugh and laugh... and then I laugh some more at the most hideously styled vehicle since the Aztec. Wait, no, this one is worse than the Aztec. At least Walter White gave the Aztec a few steps towards redemption, but this NV... damn, nothing can be done for it, short of crushing it, melting it, and building ANY other car out of it...

Yes! They need to make an S16 to compete with the FRS/BRZ and genesis coupe.

I'd buy it. Would love to see a retro Datsun hit the street!

I don't mind the new concept at all. I do kind of like it. I'm glad someone is willing to go this route again. But then again, the Datsun 510 and the Mazda RX-3 are two of my favorite old, small cars.
