Did you know Nissan made a mid engine 4wd car? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I was playing Simulator R Nissan Edition, and I won a MID4 II, and it said it's 4wd, so I looked it up.  Here is a link, it's amazing.  http://zhome.com/History/MID-4.htm

it was a concept car that never made it to full production, It was consider to be to up market price wise for Nissans buyers . Though when we all saw it we were like yes please build it. There was also rumors that Ferrari was set to sue because the body design was way to close to a Pinanfarina body design but was not Pinanfarina. Remember Enzo was still alive at the time. Ferrari was a different company back then,

It's a shame it never made production whole.  Of course, considering the price they were asking for 300ZX Twin Turbos when new, it would've been close to $100000.  But man, would it have kicked the NSX's lily ass!

the front end of the first mid4 looks like a sohc 240, with a fiero rear end.

they are nice, especially considering they are almost 20 years old now

Hmmm I originally posted about it, then someone else did later and now you are. A triple repost is a rare thing indeed  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>

You are telling me that is a rare thing? huh I guess i was thinking the mechanics of it were a lot faster than that.  I think this board is a lot different than others, in that sort of way.       <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/eh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':eh:'>

D*mmit I am stupid I forgot to talk about the car!    That thing is the nicest 80's supercar ride I have ever seen.  PinaFarina can kiss my ass.   It looks way different than any of the ferrari s i've seen.  Like a huge MR-2 with supra side venting.  From the front it looks almost like a FC  And its got reminescent NSX tail light, rear structure.  Probably would have cost them way to much though, a non buisness minded decision would be the only way this would get production.    <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='
