Nissan Figaro on eBay
By Jen
Editor
Nissan made only 20,000 of these little sweet-peas for the Japanese market back in the early 90’s—and had to sell them by lottery, the demand for them was so high! Each was a convertible and came equipped with a tiny 1.0 turbocharged engine. Many have found their way to places like the UK and Canada; this auction is out of Toronto, and the seller appears to have two! But you’ll need to wait a few years before you can register one in the US: JDM cars have to be 25 years old before they’re legal here.

they did officially make 20,000 as you say in fact they made a bout 30 over that as special orders. Only 12,000 excist in the world today and over 1000 of them are in the UK!
Fast appreciating classic.

That thing is SWEET! I love those microcars – dunno about the 1.0, but if it can pull me up my hill, it would be perfect for my commute.

I heard a Barber in Seville owned one of these. He couldn’t stop singing about it.
