KPGC10 as it's known. It's the Japanese tradition of describing cars by their chassis number. Well used examples of this are, 'AE86', FD3', 'DC2' etc. This car is also known as the 'Hakosuka' which roughly translates to 'Box Skyline'. I prefer the KPGC110 myself, but it's a subject of much debate it seems.

I do like a number of the sixties/seventies Japanese designs. Quite fond of the Isuzu 117 too - but think Bertone did that one iirc.

The 240z is arguably a better design than the various European designs it allegedly cribbed as well.

[edit - nope I was wrong - sort of. It was Giugiaro after he left Bertone...]
