Datsun 810Everybody loves the old Z cars, but what about the Malaise Era Datsun sedan and wagon with an extremely Z-ish engine and chassis? You still see the occasional 1981-84 "810 Maxima" on the street these days, sporting the confusing "Datsun by Nissan" badging of the era, but I'm talking about the 1977-80 810s here.

2012 Maserati KubangThe made-in-Detroit Maserati Kubang will be more than Maserati's first sport-utility vehicle, and a stunning one at that; it will also mark an impressive fusion of engineering resources between Chrysler Group and Fiat SpA.
