There was a old black man at dunkin donuts the other day who was complimenting me on the Z, and reffered to it as a Datsun, he said he had one of those Datsuns back in the day before his wife made him get rid of it.

Yeah that's happened to me a couple times. When I talk to older people I just call it a Datsun-Nissan 370z

My 2nd car was a Datsun B210 and the engine valve cover said Nissan.

I was like... hmm that looks famil.... sh1t its Costa Rica! I am from there, "Agencia Datsun" is the name of the business or the company that owns the right to sell the cars. It's been there since Datsun was Datsun, hence the name of the dealership. They only have 2 in the country, one is just an office.

Toyota dealerships are owned by Purdy Motors, so on their dealearships signs you would see "TOYOTA .... Purdy Motors". Grupo Q owns Chevy dealerships, VETRASA owns Suzuki, etc etc.
