it's worth noting that the 240z, 260z and 280z are all S30's so essentially the same car, and the first gen 300ZX would eb a Z31 and the scond would be the Z32

Mine is the S30 because the design of the car is still relevant today. You can sit in the driver's seat and not have to wonder what certain things do. That car is the meeting of form and function. The reason I said that this car was better than the Z32 is because the 240Z was a revolution in sports car manufacturing. There is very little needed to make the car the car better (front lip spoiler) and they are a lot more reliable than the Z32. My dream is to have one beside my Z32 in my 5 car garage. LOL.

My first car - that I had ALL TO MYSELF:

1975 280Z 2+2 Datsun Green, she has 283K on the clock. Bad *** little car!! Tough as **** and I still have her.

My 1990 300ZXTT Silver "Gracie" and my current 1990 300ZXTT PearlGlow Yellow "Bee" are the safest cars I have ever had in my life.

Z CARS ARE MY FAVORITE CARS!!! (besides Mini's )

z32 could be the nicest looking car in the 90's. I think too many people vote the 240z because its the first Z

the 240Z is also a true sports car where as the Z32 is a Grand Touring car, the 240z is also the lightest, and the easiest to work on and the most collectible, I'm sure if you had the same poll in the Z32 section the Z32 would win out as thats what thye all won, and if it were int he Z33 section the Z33 would win for the same reason but this is the classic section devoted to 70-89 so the scales would be generally a bit tilted to those gens

and keep in mind without the 240z there would be no z32

Sports cars are lightweight and the S30 is it. Better yet with 432, 432R and ZG.

Well... I'd have to say

S30Z33Z31S130Z32

That's on USDM models. If we include all models on a worldwide basis...S30 (240ZG)Z31 (200ZR)Z33S130Z32

The Z32 gets no love for being a pain in the *** to work on.
