Jay Leno checks out Nissan IDx Nismo, spiritual successor to Datsun 510 - Autoblog

Notice on the cam while Jay is driving that the IDX has virtually no rear blind spots from the side windows. I think these cars are awesome and can't wait to see them on the road. I just might DD one?

with how much nissan is pushing the idx nismo concept makes me think thats the direction they are heading with the design rather than the idx freeflow

I'd consider trading in the Z for this. I picture it being like an FRS but not sucky.

Love it! Would consider for a DD. My first car was a 1970 Datsun 210. I loved that car.

Holy Christ it's so ugly... I see the 510, but worse...

I've seen almost every episode of Jay Leno's Garage... But I don't think I'll be finishing this one

The regular one, LOOOOOL, maybe worse. Or Nissan is retarded and showcases their cars in shít colors on purpose.

The guy in the video didn't seem like a car guy, an artist, yeah, maybe, but not a car guy.

i thought that him being a designer was a good change up-got a different perspective. he must work with Randy if he works for nissan design in SD.
