Legendary Inspiration: The Nissan Fairlady Z S130 Super-Z
The Nissan Fairlady Z S130, better known as the Datsun 280ZX, is part of the second generation of Nissan's Z-series. This lineup was produced from 1978 to 1983 and quickly became a popular sports car both in Japan and around the world. It succeeded the Nissan Fairlady Z S30 and brought a modern design along with some cool technical upgrades. The eye-catching design of the S130 was developed under the guidance of Yoshihiko Matsuo, who emphasized the sporty and dynamic character of the car.Some of the original highlights included a 2.8-liter (169 cubic inches) inline-six engine (in the model variant with the "280" name) and options for either a 5-speed manual or a 3-speed automatic transmission. With a max output of up to 150 horsepower (in the US version), this car was a favorite choice for fans of powerful coupes. The "Super-Z," designed for the hit TV show Seibu Keisatsu (translated: Western Police), took things up a notch: complete with futuristic tech like a retractable machine gun in the front, this special edition model was a true gem for action fans.
The Theme of "Miniature Perfection": 1/18 Scale Model by AUTOart
This 1/18 scale model of the Nissan Fairlady Z S130 Super-Z comes from the renowned model manufacturer AUTOart. AUTOart is known for creating incredibly detailed and high-quality model cars. This replica stands out with its faithful reproduction of every little detail and is made from a mix of materials.With a limited worldwide release (only 5,000 pieces), this model isn't just a collector's item; it’s a rare treasure for any display case. The model is owned by a collector named Jiten and showcases the perfect blend of technical precision and attention to detail. Hinges, door handles, and even the distinctive antenna have all been authentically recreated.
Design and Paint Job: Gold Meets Function
One of the coolest features of this model is its stunning paint job: it's decked out in a two-tone combo of shiny gold and matte black. The "NISSAN" lettering on the hood and rear of the vehicle stands out right away. Plus, the star-shaped wheels in gold with silver accents have been meticulously modeled and contribute to the eye-catching aesthetic.Special care was taken with the body adornments, which closely match the TV version of the vehicle. With intricate details like the air intakes on the hood and the uniquely shaped taillights, every corner of this model pays tribute to the original. And they nailed it with the side writing reading "Fairlady 280Z" to keep it authentic.
Interior Look: Function Meets Form
The interior of the model has been crafted by AUTOart in 1/18 scale with tons of attention to detail. The seats rock a two-tone scheme in black and white, and the dashboard is a precise replica of the original cockpit. It captures everything in the Super-Z: from the classic-style gear lever to the built-in special gadgets like the radio.Another cool feature is that the doors, hood, and trunk of the model can all open, letting you appreciate both the technical and visual complexity of the car. The tires have a natural tread pattern that really shows just how closely the model matches its real-life counterpart. This model is definitely a must-have in any miniatures collection, especially for fans of Japanese classics and iconic TV cars.
