Another installment in the “Simple Things Done Well” series. This is the Nissan Figaro, produced in 1989. I don’t own one, so I can’t speak to the car’s functionality or reliability, but every time I cross this image in my morgue file I stop and admire.

You could call this the car-version of the MUJI toothbrush, since they share so much aesthetically. Similarly, both are unbranded, which is interesting.

File under: dream car.
