    1973 Datsun 610: The Luxury Economy Car

    We've seen a '73 610 Down On The Street, and it didn't seem particularly luxurious. Quirky Japanese styling, yes, but luxury? You did get a lot of stuff not available on Detroit's econo-cars of the era (independent rear suspension, for example), but Nissan was claiming only 25MPG for this thing?
