Nissan 180SX Red Panda - Livery Design
The big question
Can a car carry a soul through its design, or does a wrap stay just a wrap?
Another design on a Japanese car, once again inspired by traditional Japanese culture but this time dedicated to the art of combat.
Around the sword wielded by the panda, smoke swirls deliberately into the shape of the number 910, a detail that rewards anyone who looks closely enough.

The brief
The livery was built in CM’s signature color palette and turned out to be the starting point for something bigger: the idea of making a red Japanese panda the face of our brand. Whether it officially becomes our mascot one day, only time will tell. Either way, this is once again proof that a car can wear a story.
