Today I'd like to put the Nissan 200sx Grand Prix under the spotlight.
With only few units produced (around 50 in Europe) the Grand Prix edition is the Eight Wonder in the World.

Found this particular model equipped with 2.0L DOHC FJ20E. This naturally aspirated engine is producing 150 PS at 6400 RPM.
Every S12 Grand Prix was leaving the production line originally with three-piece Gotti rims.

To be quite honest it would of been even better if they used the FJ20ET which is turbocharged but still I find the S12 GP quite unique.

Back in that time famous rally cars like Audi Quattro, Renault 5 Turbo, BMW M3 EVO has inspired the designers of the S12 GP to use lightweight fiberglass widebody kit. People say that because of that the Nissan 200sx Grand Prix was intended to be an honorable rival in rally competitions but because of the number of units produced it will better fit in the museum of the dream garage.
