I have the Fairlady Z badge on my car, a few people ask me what it is or is it a special 370z. Then you have the true enthusiasts who know what it is and think it is unique and better than the standard 370z.

Cliff notes while googling...

While Mr. Katsuji Kawamata, the President of Nissan Motors of Japan Ltd., was visiting the United States in 1958 he attended a performance, on-Broadway, of the hit musical "My Fair Lady".

A couple of years later (1960), when Nissan was about to introduce its new Sports Car Line, Mr. Kawamata gave it the official name of "Fairlady". He had been so impressed with the beauty of the music and the leading lady in that Broadway Musical, that he thought everyone would relate the name of Nissans new sports car "the Fairlady" to the beauty of the music and the leading lady in the play. Indeed, that is what happened in Japan, the name made perfect sense there and was readily accepted in that market.

somewhere on some Japanese Z forum, there's probably a debate raging as to whether to put the USDM 370z emblem on their fairlady Z. :happydance:

JayYoon 08-31-2010 01:52 AM
