1967 Datsun 411 Down On The Maui Street [Down On The Street Bonus Edition]

This is Down On The Street Bonus Edition, where we check out interesting street-parked cars in places other than the Island That Rust Forgot. You'd think Maui's humidity would be rough on old Japanese cars…

But this little Bluebird looks to have dodged the Rust Monster's fangs for decade after decade. Reader Chris was in Makawao and found what must be one of the nicest street-driven PL411s in the world. Here's what he has to say about it:

Hi,I was in Hawaii a few weeks ago and spotted this car on the island in Makawao,Maui.
I did a search on Jalopnik and it appears to be a Datsun 411 Bluebird. Very nice shape,
and for sale also. I've included a few pics,enjoy!

2007 Chicago Auto Show: 2008 Nissan Armada

2008armada

For 2008, Nissan decided to keep things simple, giving a uniformed look to the Titan, Pathfinder and Armada — at least around the front. Otherwise, the new Armada’s massive bulk gets little nipped and tucked besides some new light treatments and a rear-­end adjustment.

There are several new interior features, including a much improved center stack, power-folding third-row seats, an optional heated steering wheel, an intelligent key system, a hard-drive-based entertainment system, Bluetooth hands-free calling and a DVD navigation system with live traffic updates. There’s no word on when the 2008 Armada will become available, but check back next week when our full coverage of the Chicago Auto Show gets into gear.

Look Out, Toyota Starlet! The '82 Sentra Gets 58 Highway MPG! [Classic Ad Watch]

Of course we realize that the books were cooked on that 58 MPG figure; the old EPA test had about as much to do with real-world driving as the image of Sea Monkeys has to do with real brine shrimp. Still, though, the '82 Sentra sipped gas through a cocktail straw, and entry-level econoboxes 26 years later are guzzling the stuff by comparison. Would present-day car buyers find this Datsun intolerably loud, cramped, and bouncy, pissing themselves in terror every time an Expedition loomed in their field of vision… and what's with the hand-cranked windows and lack of air conditioning? Yeah, a car like this would have no chance today, but let's see what happens when gas hits 10 bucks per!
