Description
Kyosho 1:18 Nissan Fairlady Z-L (S30) 1970 Blue Metallic, part number KS08220WBL, is a diecast model of the Nissan Fairlady Z-L (S30) presented at 1:18 scale. Its Blue Metallic finish identifies this particular version, while the reduced-scale shape retains the main exterior cues of the full-size 1970 subject. The model is made for appreciating the car’s form as a display miniature.
About The Subject
The full-size Nissan Fairlady Z-L (S30) belongs to the 1969–1970 period, with its design and development associated with Yoshihiko Matsuo and Nissan’s styling team. The original car’s long-bonnet fastback coupé profile and inline-six layout influenced its proportions and overall appearance. This Kyosho replica focuses on the named road-car version rather than presenting a racing derivative or a fictional interpretation.
The front profile, side silhouette and rear treatment combine to show the design language of the S30. Wheels, openings and glazing help identify the specification represented by this miniature, while the Blue Metallic paintwork separates it from other references in the range. The model preserves the principal external features without sharing the mechanical functions of the original vehicle.
Model Details
This 1:18 Nissan Fairlady Z-L miniature provides a compact representation of a car with an important place in Nissan’s design history. It can be used to explore the relationship between the full-size vehicle’s styling and the shape reproduced at model scale. The catalogue reference KS08220WBL identifies this Blue Metallic version, making it easier to distinguish from other Kyosho Nissan Fairlady Z-L S30 replicas.
The competition history of S30-based cars should be kept separate from this road-going specification. Specially prepared rally cars competed in major events, but the colour and designation of this miniature do not establish a race entry for the specific full-size car represented here. This release instead concentrates on the 1970 Nissan Fairlady Z-L (S30) and its period styling.

Specifications
Nissan Fairlady Z-L (S30) 1970 Blue Metallic The Kyosho model and its origins This Kyosho diecast model is a faithful 1:18-scale replica of the Nissan Fairlady Z-L (S30) 1970 Blue Metallic. It captures the distinctive silhouette of the Nissan Fairlady Z-L S30. The Blue Metallic finish gives this particular replica its visual identity. The catalogue reference for this miniature is KS08220WBL. The history of the full-size vehicle or depicted subject is rooted in 1969–1970. Its design and development are associated with Yoshihiko Matsuo and Nissan’s styling team. The original form reflects the technical and cultural priorities of its period. The shape was created for a real driving purpose rather than for the miniature itself. Design and production The most recognisable proportions remain visible at reduced scale. Its front profile establishes the vehicle’s immediate identity. The side silhouette reveals the relationship between cabin and body. The rear treatment completes that recognisable design language. For production context, The exact number of Z-L cars in this finish is not documented here. That historical figure, where available, concerns the full-size car rather than Kyosho miniatures. A colour or race livery should not automatically be treated as a separately numbered factory edition. The supplied product line does not state how many Kyosho replicas were manufactured. Production and engineering Variant totals can differ from the production figure for the broader model family. This distinction matters when a collector compares closely related versions. The original concept is characterised by a long-bonnet fastback coupé with an inline-six. Its mechanical layout influenced the body’s overall proportions. The engineering choices reflect the purpose of the full-size vehicle. Changes between road and racing specifications should be understood separately. The miniature preserves the principal external cues of its named version. Wheels, openings and glazing help identify the chosen specification. Engineering and competition The selected paintwork makes this release visually distinct from other references. A miniature is a representation and does not share the mechanical functions of the original. In competition terms, Specially prepared S30 rally cars won major events, not necessarily this road-going Z-L. The designation does not itself establish a race entry for this specific road-car finish. A racing success is attributed to the relevant team, driver and full-size car. Related competition derivatives may differ significantly from production examples. The colour alone does not establish that a specific car took part in a race. Where the subject comes from fiction or cinema, its on-screen exploits are not official results. Legacy This separation preserves the historical meaning of the original model. The Nissan Fairlady Z-L S30 remains a distinct chapter in its manufacturer’s design history. Its form links the period’s styling to the engineering underneath. The chosen specification gives the collector a more precise version to display. Kyosho presents the subject at 1:18 scale. The replica offers a compact way to appreciate the original design. This Nissan Fairlady Z-L (S30) 1970 Blue Metallic miniature highlights the car’s individual appearance. It brings together automotive history and the pleasure of a carefully chosen display model.
