    The VX prototype's design was led by Satomi Murayama, chief designer/manager at Isuzu's European office in Brussels, the design team was comprised of an international group: Simon Cox (Assistant Chief Designer best known for designing the Lotus Elan's interior), Joji Yanaka, Andrew Hill and Nick Robinson.

    The connection is Satomi Murayama, who was head of Nissan design (not sure if he still is) and was principle in the current changes to the 350z and the design of the Murano/FX.

    I DID NOT KNOW THAT!

    He was involved with the FX35, 350Z and VX?!?

    Pretty funny...because now that my FX35 is sold, my two remaining cars are my VX and my 2004 350Z Roadster!

    I'm either very predictable or very consistent...

    Thanx Jon, I was working at an Isuzu/Nissan dealership and drooling over the prelim. FX sketches when I learned they were related. I think it was from "Liquid Metal" or some other Nissan enthusiast site.
