Nissan EXA

The Nissan EXA is two-door coupé manufactured and marketed by Nissan Motor Company from 1986 to 1990. Internally designated as the N13 series, it replaced the earlier Nissan Pulsar EXA and Nissan Langley EXA (N12) sold between 1982 and 1986. The Japanese version was sold at Nissan Cherry Store locations as the Pulsar EXA, and at Nissan Prince Store locations as the Langley EXA.

Both generations of the EXA were marketed in North America under the name Nissan Pulsar NX.

First generation (N12; 1982–1986)

The Pulsar EXA was known in North America as the Pulsar NX and shared many of its parts with the Nissan Pulsar. This version of the Pulsar NX was available from 1983 to 1986 and came with either the fuel injected turbocharged E15ET engine or the carburetted naturally aspirated E16S engine. The Pulsar EXA followed a successful strategy Nissan used in Japan of offering the economical Nissan Sunny in an affordable, youth-oriented two-door coupe, demonstrated by the Nissan Sunny Coupe fastback, which was offered since the Sunny's introduction in 1966. As the Pulsar was a companion to the Nissan Sunny, but offered at a different Japanese Nissan dealership called Nissan Cherry Store, the Pulsar EXA followed in the tradition of the Sunny Coupe.
