They could use the Leaf’s battery/Power Delivery Module and place the PDM in a rear/mid arrangement.

I can get behind this. I’m actually sort of surprised no one really makes a convertible EV .

Quadruple down and bring back the 810 wagon, I6 and wood trim mandatory:

Don’t remind me. It was so neat. Homage to racing days, the BRE style stripes. Even with the success of the BRZ/FRS and they decided to pull the plug. I’m drooling now thinking of if they bring back all three how amazing that would be.

Oh my, a Nissan station wagon. Imagine with a diesel. Imagine if the crank from the diesel could serve as stroker for the engine in the Z...

Maybe that’s another one to revive. There was a diesel 810/ Maxima sold in the USDM from MY 1981-83, and it could even be had in wagon form:

Bring it back and we’re halfway there.

Full battery convertible makes the most sense because after about 100 miles of sun, wind, and noise, I'm ready for a break in mine, perfect for recharging.

Yea that is the one. The crank could be harvested to make a 3.1L stroker in the gas engines. It was popular for people to buy the cars for $500, then sell the crank for $700 and scrap the car for a little bit.

Which is sad, because now those cars are insanely rare.
