Its a pity Nissan never put these into production!
 

Porsche had the 959, and Nissan had the MID 4. This car was a prototype built in 1985 to develop technologies for implementation in future sports cars. Unlike the 959 Prototype from 1983 the MID 4 was never put in production, but it might as well be considered the forefather of both the new-gen GT-R and the Fairlady Z.

The car was powered by a mid-mounted (hence the name) VG30DETT and sported an all-new 4WD system with a rear-biased torque split. Essentially, it was the first version of Nissan’s ATTESA, which was then further refined until it made its production debut in the 1989 BNR32 Skyline GT-R.

It also had an innovative 4-wheel steer system called HICAS, which as we know was used in the Z32 and all GT-Rs, as well as a string of other Nissan cars.

Very NSX like
not bad...................for a Nissan lol

Yeah that's what I think, the similarities to the front end of the NSX in particular is uncanny. I suppose when you consider the rules at the time regarding placement of headlights/indicators etc. they must have both followed a similar approach.
 
Also funny its called a MID 4 much for the same reasons the MR2 model name came about (midship rear wheel portion at least anyway).
 
So also apparently the Z32 was one of the first production cars designed using CAD. I dare say if the Mid 4 ever made production it would have proceeded it.
