It's Coming Back From The Scrap Heap Nissan said Tuesday (on 3/20) that it will revive the Datsun name on a line of inexpensive small cars that will be sold in India, Indonesia and Russia. By the way (a joke) Do all of you know how Datsun got it's name? The Japanese knew that the German's had very keen engineering and world class autos, not to mention great names that sold. So they asked them, we have an auto that has this that and that. What should we name it? The German's talked and said we need a month to come up with a name for your new auto. The [B]Japanese[/B] replied we need a name by the end of the week. The senior German marketing rep replied, "DAT SOON"?
