A $3000 Car?

A 1971 Datsun 240Z. Probably not
what Nissan is going to reboot.

I remember when I was a senior in high school that the Datsun 240Z was about $3000.  Well, it looks like Nissan has decided to revive the Datsun brand with a new car for only $3000. In interviews, Nissan’s CEO, Carlos Ghosn, said that the stripped-down models will appear in emerging-market countries as bare-boned as any rival has tried. Here are a links to three articles from The Wall street Journal that give more background.

Maybe they'll make their first reborn model the 240Z. A guy can hope, right?
