What other travelers are saying about Nissan Global Headquarters Gallery
Dropped by this place yesterday for what we thought would be a quick look… and ended up doing a full lap like it was Le Mans. Free admission? Yes. Air conditioning? Blessedly yes. Legendary cars? You bet your Fairlady Z they’ve got them.
From a 1972 Highway Patrol 240ZG that looks ready to ticket Godzilla, to race-winning GT cars that scream “grip and go,” the place is a love letter to Japanese engineering and design. There’s also a clean display of modern models (including those fun little box vans that look like futuristic bread loaves)...you can get in, try the seats, and dream about being late to daycare in style.
Bonus: every spec sheet is bilingual (English and Japanese), the space is clean and spacious, and there’s zero pressure to buy. Just pure automotive joy.
Pro tip: Car nerd or not, this is the perfect place to cool off, geek out, and maybe fall a little in love with a Datsun. And did I mention it’s free?
Even though the world HQ setup is amazing and I initially didn't go because of the cars on display weren't that interesting until I saw there was a special GT-R event during the holiday weekend
An interesting and quick visit. You can see cars currently for sale, but they also have a section displaying vintage and racing cars. The exhibits change frequently, so you can visit multiple times and see new things.
Did not get to see much beyond the mini-museum and showroom floor near street level. What I did see was quite impressive. A mix of old, new, race cars, and a shop. Workers were constantly working and keeping the cars clean while answering questions. There is a kids area to keep them entertained, along with an interactive area where you can explore cars through a pseudo VR set up. The showroom portion has ICE vehicles, hybrids, and BEV. All cars can be sat in, play with the lights, adjust the seats, and more.
I am not an import guy, but the setup is very nice, appealing, and well done. Kinda want a Z now.
