This car kicks ass, I had the Datzun 2000 roadster. The 240 z was a game changer.

The 2000 roadster was fun and is largely forgotten today.

Those cars looked awesome back in the day but they are just getting even better as time goes on.

[@ride-ct-classiccars]

Some cars instantly look old. The Z models still looks fresh.

Ken is a handsome daddy bear 😍😍😍

[@karson1214]

Perfect survivor

[@ride-ct-classiccars]

Certainly is.

[@Jayskiallthewayski]

Still one of the best looking cars ever made.

[@ride-ct-classiccars]

No argument here. It just leapt off the page then, so to speak, and it still does today.

Beautiful car. Love the color.

[@ride-ct-classiccars]

It looks great!

[@fredWaxBeans11111]

My favorite car as a child. It just looks so cool!

[@ride-ct-classiccars]

Certainly does. My mother had a 280Z. A lot of fun - until I rolled it.

[@rcrtyd]

That's a nice find, unrestored. Beautiful.

[@ride-ct-classiccars]

Unrestored - except for returning it to its original color.

[@psa10hunter94]

Always loved the older Z’s!

[@ride-ct-classiccars]

They certainly altered the playing field upon their debut.

[@russellbuonasera4786]

Those OEM hubcaps!!!

[@ride-ct-classiccars]

They look great and jump right out at you.

Nice ride

[@BankstersR4Communism]

My first car I bought was a Datsun 280Z that I snagged off a neighbor for $300. Shoulda never listened to the Navy recruiter suggesting to get rid of it...

[@ride-ct-classiccars]

It would be a blast to have it now! The looks you would get...

[@BankstersR4Communism]

@@ride-ct-classiccars Oh I get plenty of looks in my '90 Z32TT lol but yeah you're right. The OG is the best...
