Today was the Press Day at the 2022 Tokyo Auto Salon, and Nissan debuted its 'Customized Proto' new Fairlady Z show car.
At this point it is a one-off styling exercise, elements of which may or may not make it to final production as either a special limited edition (hopefully) or as upgrade parts.
The car references the PS30-SB Fairlady Z432-R model of 1969, Nissan's super-lightweight homologation variant of the S30-series range in its colour and livery, whilst it has special wheels and tyres, add-on 'overfenders' (referencing the Race/Sports Option overfenders of the 432-R) and some arguably improving body additions, especially at the front.
Apparently it has been causing quite a stir, and is very popular. It might prompt Nissan to actually make it...
