Behold the 1977 Nissan AD-2, a design study for the ultimate luxury sedan. “AD” stood for Advanced Design. It still had fender mirrors, but they were integrated into the bodywork of the front wings. Distinctive features included a wraparound rear window and ultra-thin pillars.
Since it was a design study, the underpinnings were rather conventional. The rear suspension was a four-link solid axle setup cribbed from the Nissan Laurel. Power came from the fuel-injected L28 straight-six popular in other Nissan products.
