Research pending
A matching completed auction sale has not been verified for this exact year, body, trim, engine, transmission and market.
Joyride shows this gap instead of substituting an asking price, unsold bid or mismatched special vehicle.
More than a set of wheels.
Nissan showed the Figaro at the 1989 Tokyo Motor Show and built 20,000 production cars in 1991. It was the fourth Pike car after the Be-1, Pao and S-Cargo. This profile covers the finished FK10 production car, not the earlier show display.
Look a little closer.
The four factory colors were named Emerald, Pale Aqua, Lapis Gray and Topaz Mist.
Photos show an example of the model or generation. The pictured vehicle’s year, equipment, or modifications can differ from the specification described here.
A roof that changes the cabin
Nissan described the Figaro as a two-door coupe with a unique open top. Its white leather trim and special instruments were part of the design, so the cabin mattered as much as the nostalgic outside shape.

The design appeared publicly in 1989, but the archive identifies the production FK10 as a 1991 car. The two dates describe different stages of the same project and are kept separate here.
