Autech Gavia

Is Autech Zagato Gavia right ? Then I'd go for Autech Zagato Stelvio

It was designed by Zagato, but was its official name Autech Zagato Gavia?
I'll have to check, unless anyone know for sure?

Here's a front view of it together with words from the site I got it from:

QUOTE
1993 Autech Gavia

In 1993 Autech and Zagato worked together on their second car known as the Autech Gavia. It was a tuned version of the Leopard with performance modifications by Autech and a new body from Zagato of Milan.

Maybe you're right, but just for the records, the Z (Zagato logo) in the front grille and in the hubcaps, (as the car ID).
There are reference pages where called it Zagato Aurtech Gavia, also Nissan Autech Zagato Gavia.

But it's not my call

Thanks
The Web is often not a reliable source of info, though it is my main source of course!
I did find one picture of the car with a Zagato badge on the rear, but it was described as the prototype whilst the badge was not there on the production cars..

Hell's Chariot from the film Grease.

I should have nipped this in the bud earlier. Nicknames given to stock or customized cars used in TV shows and movies are now off the table.

Acknowledged. Sorry Otto. (I was desperate!)

Foul!

If the car was badged as sold as aAutech Gavia, the appearance of the letter Z on the car does not allow for takcing on the coachbuilder/s name to the car, The appearance of the Z on this car doesn't change the name of the car, any more than the Pininfarina badge changes the name of a a Cadillac Allante   

We'll continue from "Autech Gavia".

Sorry I missed it before

Whilst we're on the subject of fouls, much earlier I followed a "600" by posting a Lola T600, but I deliberately typed the model as T 600 in order to qualify. I feel ashamed  :D. My Jaguar XK120 has been followed by a 120 which technically are not the same designation.

Where do we stand on this? I'm asking in a light-hearted manner by the way - I just don't want to see any heated arguments which are not in the spirit of AP.

Good point.  1min 8secs between that and the next answer, so they probably crossed in the ether. Seems to be a drawback of the game.

I think we'd all better wait for the OP to adjudicate.
