Talk:Nissan Cedric

I have read once that Cedric comes from the fact that the president of Nissan loved Little Lord Fauntleroy. Is it a urban legend or true ?Hektor 00:30, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

Need Photos

Photos of this car are desperately needed, other than taxis. Now that this car is no longer made, older vehicles must be running around in Japan.(Regushee (talk) 21:30, 4 August 2008 (UTC))

They may well be, but from what I've heard of annual vehicle checks and the like in Japan, only a fairly committed owner would go to the bother. It's not quite as friendly an environment to classics as Europe, and certainly not like the USA... 77.102.101.220 (talk) 22:17, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

Would sombody please change the picture for the Y32 since it shows a Y33 . Thank You. And in case you need pictures of a Brougham VIP VG30DE twinthrottle, let me know and I send some of my car 119.235.97.161 (talk) 23:49, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Please, upload your photos to Wikimedia Commons! Finding decent photos of Japanese market cars are very difficult to find. Interior photos of seats (front and back) are especially rare. Wikipedians prefer the photos be as close to stock as possible, with minimal customization, but if the custom is of a decent caliber, you probably won't find too much argument.

Again, please upload your photos and any other JDM cars you might have access to.

Thanks again

Generations

There appear to be differences in 'generations' between this article and Nissan Gloria. Is this an issue? - Peter Ellis - Talk 04:50, 27 September 2010 (UTC) =Actually, no because the Gloria was in production when first manufactured by Prince, then merged with Nissan, so the generations will be different.(Regushee (talk) 09:59, 28 September 2010 (UTC))

Is this correct?

Under "fourth generation (330)", we have: "The diesel engine returned, called the Diesel DX, and was able to run on LPG for taxi use."

Now, I'm not feeling confident enough to do anything to the main text, but I have to ask... is this for real? I don't think I've ever heard of a diesel engine running on LPG before, given that it's basically highly compressed petroleum vapours of an even more volatile and quick-burning nature than gasoline. It seems an ill-fitting choice for a diesel motor. Any LPG-converted engines I've heard tell of before started life as (and tended to remain switchable to) gasoline models, and retained their spark-ignition, lower compression nature (and I would suspect the CR is actually lowered slightly as part of the process, as the converted engine has a lower peak power output afterwards). 77.102.101.220 (talk) 22:20, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

"European redesigned Cedric debuted at the 2013 Geneva International Motor Show as the 2014 model is built upon the Nissan D platform Outside Japan the Tenth Generation from 1998 to 2004 was replaced by Nissan Fuga".

"Assembly: Rüsselsheim, Germany"

My question: is that true? I cannot find any confirmation, not even metion outside this article. Here:

http://www.nissan-global.com/EN/NEWS/2013/_STORY/130227-02-e.html

Cedric is not listed among cars displayed in Geneva.

Another problem: Nissan Juke is listed as car related to Cedric. This is totally false, Juke as a small car, built on Nissan B platform, has nothing in common with Nissan large cars family, with a possible expection of switches, buttons or vents. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.122.6.163 (talk) 10:20, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
