This model is a faithful replica of a classic, luxury sedan that became the design inspiration for many subsequent generations of Japanese cars.

Vehicle history:
The Nissan Gloria Sedan 200 Standard was introduced to the Japanese market by the Prince Motor Company (later merged into Nissan) during the post-war economic boom of the 1960s. The car featured classic body lines, a comfortable interior, and a robust 2.0-litre engine. This model was popular both among individual customers and as a prestigious taxi in large Japanese cities. Its exclusive character and durability made the Gloria a synonym of upper and middle-class luxury in Japan, with subsequent generations produced up to the 21st century.
