Any info on the car?

[twinspark]

Reminds me of the latest Alfa GTV, the Fiat Coupé and some Maseratis. The fact that it's rhd is interesting.

On which Nissan?

[Sauc3]

On which Nissan?
1991 Nissan Gavia? A quick search revealed this: it was made. That's it, no extra pics, no information that I can find, it's driving me up the wall.


So I'm going to sleep. :p


I want more info too though!!!

[Gianni]

Of course it was made ! I think 30 cars, for Japanese.

Nissan Leopard for motor and mechanics.

I search around the web since several years... :rolleyes:

[Ferrer]

I've searched a bit and the 1991 Nissan Leopard had either a 1998cc V6 (115bhp N/A, 155bhp turbo, 210bhp turbo) or a 2960cc V6 (185bhp N/A, 200bhp N/A, 255bhp Turbo). It was front engined and rear wheel drive. The 2-litre was available with either a 4-speed auto or a 5-speed manual, and the 3-litre was only available with the 4-speed auto.

RHD I suppose. Any idea how many were made?

[MGRV8]

Yes, there were only 30 made. they are aluminium bodied. yes, they are right hand drive, i beleive there are only 16 in Japan and the rest are scattered around the world.

That's a high number for a Zagato:)
Thanks, so it is basically a Leopard (a skyline without the nice drivertrain) with an in-line 6? Did it receive any status in Japan (like the RV8:) )

[Gianni]

Sam, are you satisfied of this Gavia ? Is it a reliable car ? ;)

[NSXType-R]

Reliable or not I don't think he'll get rid of it. It's too rare. The underpinnings seem like they should be decent.
