Datsun 240Z S30
Designed by Yoshihiko Matsuo and inspired by European GT cars, the 240Z became America's best-selling sports car and established Nissan's performance credentials globally. The L24 inline-6 engine delivered smooth, reliable power, while the independent suspension provided excellent handling. The combination of sleek styling, strong performance, and remarkable value proposition made the 240Z a phenomenon that outsold its European competitors and created a loyal following that endures today.
