Apparently car enthusiasts in Japan are celebrating Nissan Cedric's 25th birthday.

The Cedric first showed up in 1987, since then the car virtually stayed exact same.
They did minor tuning and refinements for crash test and emission test but other than that, the car virtually stayed the same for 25 years.

In Hong Kong as well. The Cedric LPG motor is much stronger than the Toyota Crown Comfort actually, but they also consumed more LPG/km so they soon lost their places in HK Taxi circle.
