matthijsgrit Posted February 17, 2018 Author Share Posted February 17, 2018 This weeks car was a 1965 - 1968 Nissan Silvia CSP311 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_Silvia Only 554 were produced. I’m pleasantly surprized by the number of good answers, even though I used a picture with non-Japanese mirrors to not give away its origin to easily... The link to Datsun, which some of you named the brand of this car, is obvious, I guess. Lovely car, imho. I can see this as kind of an ancestor to the IDx concept cars, Nissan should’ve taken into production. So, those who got it right: MERIVA W-409 iamsuperdan dw1603 otherunicorn ChrisR carsntrucks4you Thanks al for playing and thank you carsntrucks4you for letting me host this weeks game.

Matt Bacon Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Oh, nice one... and very irritating! I bought one of these because I thought it looked cool in an issue of Hemmings Sports & Exotic: And I still didn't recognise it... best, M.

matthijsgrit Posted February 17, 2018 Author Share Posted February 17, 2018 That’s a good story! well..., I didn’t even know there’s a kit of this car... Will you build it as a standard car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew it was Japanese, but I just couldn't get my old brain to stop saying it was a Yotyto or a Mazzder.

That's the plan... the kits has all the normal parts in: the only "Patrol Car" extras are a beacon for the roof and an extra radio, IIRC (There's a "Sprue D") with just the police parts on... best, M.

W-409 Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Somehow by the looks I immediately thought that this has to be a Japanese car. But it took a bit of time to figure out what make it is. That's actually pretty good looking body style! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
