Let me make this perfectly clear: I am NOT an automotive connoisseur, nor do I claim to be. The first time I heard of Datsun, I was in a parking lot in Kerrisdale, about three inches from the hood, thinking: What brand is this?
There's just something awesome about classic cars that modern sports cars (Ferrari, Bentley, Mclaren, Maserati, Lamborghini, etc.) can't capture. The sleek, flowing curves that are emphasized but not overstated, speak to the artist within me; the recessed head lights give off the impression of aggression, but look restrained all the same.
Apparently, Cool Material agree too. Here's a link to the article they posted: http://coolmaterial.com/feature/current-obsession-datsun-280z/
Promotional Material for the Nissan 280z, or better known in Japan, the Datsun Fairlady Z
It just so happens that they are pretty inexpensive, about $4,000 to $6,000 CAD, therefore are commonly bought to be modified by motor enthusiasts.
Stanceworks, a website that catalogues people's modified cars, has some really cool photos of what people have done to their Datsuns.
I DO NOT own these images!
