The Tomica '01 Nissan Cima is the car for today.

Wikipedia.com
 
The Nissan Cima is a large luxury sedan produced by Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. for the Japanese market. The car's name is derived from Spanish for "summit". The hood ornament uses an image of an acanthus leaf. The acanthus leaf was commonly used by classical Greeks to make a wreath for use as a crown.

The Cima has traditionally been the Nissan offering to the Toyota Crown Majesta since its introduction. The Cima in the first two generations was a more luxurious and larger version of the Cedric and Gloria, with the Cima sharing the V8 engine from the President, with later generations being the shorter version of the larger President. The Cima was formally announced to be integrated with the Nissan Fuga August 2010.

I bought this Tomica at the Plaza Antique Mall in Dyesrville, Iowa this past August. It was in a $2 bin on the second floor along with various JLs and RC castings. Didn't have the casting in my collection and figured for $2, how could I go wrong with an opening door Tomica? :D

Very nice! The 1:1 grill reminds me of a Mercedes S-Class.

What makes this casting appealing to me, is that this represents the Infiniti Q45. Sweet.
