The Figaro's been on my radar for quite a while now and I'd love to have one. Unfortunately, it's problematic and very expensive to register them here in CA due to special state requirements for safety and emissions.
The Figaro is known as one of the four 'Pike' vehicles that were designed and built by Nissan in the late 1980s and early '90s exclusively for the Japanese domestic market. Initial demand was so strong that they had to be sold thru a lottery. The name 'Pike' refers to the factory that produced them. In addition to the Figaro, there was the Pao, the Be-1, and the S-Cargo. They all looked like they jumped right off the pages of a comic book.
