The car was presented at the Nissan Ginza showroom in Tokyo to Ito, and it was also announced in a Nissan press release on the same date, which coincided with her birthday. The total cost of the restoration is said to have exceeded the cost of the original Cima, which was ¥5 million in 1990, or . Second generation (Y32; 1991) Following the Y32 Cedric/Gloria's June 1991 launch, the Cima was redesigned and introduced in August 1991.
