Just 240's in it? What about all the other unique Nissans on Nico? Just wondering, in any case it looks like it was put together really nice.

We initially wanted to do a calendar featuring all Nissans, but due to lack of submissions, we were forced to make it a 240-only calendar....for this year.

Next year however, we plan to do another one and will be hounding people to send in photos of other Nissans. The only way we can put these things together is by having Nico members help us by submitting their cars. This year there simply wasn't enough non-240's to balance it out. But hey, that's more incentive to get you non-240 people to send us some pics for next year!

Sorry man! But that was a "show special" and plus, now you gotta cover shipping...which is part of the added expense.

Unless ofcourse you come to Nicofest VIR next weekend, then you can get one for the show price again!

I was being harsh. I rescind my comment. But come on, if the Cadillac forum can fart out three varieties of calendars covering almost a dozen different models (within one brand that only has 1-2% of the US market), surely a larger forum like NICO can do the same or better.

I want to see Titans, XTerras, Q45s, 300ZXs, classic Zs, QX4s, Maximas, G20s, and Skylines. You guys can do better. In 2003 we were talking about making a NICO calendar, got TONS of submissions, and nothing ever came of it.

You can do a LOT better. Make a second calendar with the best of the best, not just NICO's favored sporty car.

I can respond to that.

First, these cost over $3K to produce, payable up-front. Not a small investment. I'm hoping we sell them, because even if they ALL sell, it's a net gain after postage of about $900.

Second, the Caddy forum did some calendars, but they were nowhere near the quality these are. These are top-notch, suitable for framing.

Third, we got a LOT of submissions. However, some of the photography was pretty bad, and most were insufficient resolution for such a project.

Let's crawl before we walk.

Looks to be very well put together and of good quality but I'm with everyone else in saying that its a very poor representation of what is Nissan and what is NICO. Next year will undoubtedly be better as it can't be much worse than all 240's.
