Give Datsun Some Love

[quickdodge®]

Uhmmm...actually Datsun was a very sucessful car brand in japan back before world war one. Nissan took over, and decided to sell cars in America under that name because it made more sense to send a sucessful name to the states, rather then Nissan which wasnt very popular. maybe you should quit being butthurt that your BF dumped you cause you dont have the miata and learn a thing or two, cunt.

Actually , Datsun was around for WWI. They were called DAT until the early 30s (I believe) and they changed to Datson. They changed the spelling to Datsun because Datson in Japanese means "to lose money." Then they changed the name to Nissan. Because of the success after WWII with the Datsun name, Nissan exported them to the USA under that name. The reason why the name Datsun was dropped was because Nissan grew tired of marketing two different names for the same car make. Later, QD.
