History of Nissan Fairlady



Nape sports car dinamakan fairlady..hmm cam pelik kan...ala2 jiwang gitu..reason die..sile bace.. terjumpe artikel ni mase tgh usha2 design kete..interesting!!


The name "Fair Lady" was given to the new sports car line by Mr. Katsuji Kawamata, President Of Nissan Motors Japan, after he attended the Broadway Musical "My Fair Lady" while visiting the US in 1958. He felt that the name would invoke an image of beauty for the car - because people would think of the beauty of the music and the leading lady in that Broadway Musical.

Mr. Teiichi Hara, General Manager of the Design Department, had given the original sports car plans the file designation "Type Z", as most all of the other characters in the roman alphabet had been previously used.
