Ode to a Nissan Figaro

Photograph by designwallah  

The Nissan Figaro was an automobile originally only sold in Japan. It was introduced in 1989 at the Tokyo Auto Show. This is a retro homage to a retro vehicle.

I found the car parked on Ossington Avenue, it is owned by a waiter at Union who had a bitter-sweet story. It's simply a beautifully designed (right-hand drive) auto. It can be imported into Canada by Right Drive.

R.I.P. Maury Chaykin (July 27, 1949 – July 27, 2010). So sad to lose him, I will miss spotting his perfect rumpled self in our neighbourhood.
