It's cheaper than the most expensive Matchbox car but the platinum one-of-a-kind replica of the 1970 Nissan Fairlady Z432 is still a pricey toy. Japanese jeweler specializing in lavish statement pieces, Ginza Tanaka has created the replica which is being displayed at the Hong Kong International Jewelry Show this month. It's not for sale but it has an estimated value of $80,000. As Autoblog reports, Nissan only built 420 of these Z432s from 1969 to 1973, so an actual Z432 might be worth more than this precious metal version. It is being shown with a matching platinum box.
