1973 Datsun 240z - POV Test Drive

I owned a ‘73 240Z in the late 70s. And drove it this hard all the time and much harder sometimes. It always performed, as just a stock car. Loved it! Why, oh why did I ever let it go?? ❤️

[@jedisentinel1499]

Better to have loved and lost rather than never to have loved at all my friend. I got the same feeling over a motorcycle.😟

[@jonnyspeed]

I think the inline 6 may be the best sounding engine ever made. Love it.

[@michaelangelo5783]

I agree. I would love to have a Z4m in my garage.

[@clardrives9301]

You’re goddamn right

[@thegamersgalaxy2855]

Great motor. Lovely aural tone. It’s not close to the natural tonality of a V8🥴

[@jonnyspeed]

@@thegamersgalaxy2855 I'm not sure which I like better. It's close. Depends on which brand and type of V8. I think we can all agree they are all better than EVs though. Even the 2.0 I4 of my ND2 MX5 sounds fantastic compared to an EV

[@ag6371]

Way better than the 350Zs

[@jbrown7403]

Takes me back to my 260z that I had in college in the early 80s. 🏁😊 Still one of the best looking bodies of all time!

[@rootsmanuva82]

This car fits you like a glove. I hate how large cars have become these days. And despite its diminutive size it's still looks long and elegant.

[@victoreboli211]

Thats what she said Im sorry

[@bfkl2225]

Ian Clancy today’s cars are heavy and ugly and boring

[@Kevin-it4fh]

You're also way more likely to die if you get into a crash with this, so it's really only a once in a while cruiser if you're not in a relatively empty area.

[@danboah2501]

[@MindDezign]

This is one of the rare videos. That captures the real sound of a Z. Most Z videos dont get this hugh quality Z sound. Great!!!

Classic. This would be a perfect Sunday driver.

Every day.very reliable once rust is exterminated

[@3rd-eye-neenja563]

[@TheSaturnV]

Take notes kids, THIS is how you do up a Datsun 240-260-280z. No body destroying wheel arches, no goofy engine swaps, just pure Z.

[@shingoose6197]

Wheels could be smaller...

[@christuem2086]

NOBODY can hate on that sound and nobody is able to deny how stunning it looks.

[@hermanman8235]

PURE DRIVING THRILL.no abs no airbag no traction control no 10 speed auto.just a blast of su fed cast iron 6 and a manly manual.truly a legendary car.

Finally! An American who doesn't over Rev on a gear change. Thank you!

Looks pretty advanced for the 70's.

[@AwesomeEricD]

I've loved that car since I was 10 years old. Looking at my 240Z brochure I kept under my pillow

[@PianoandCarcrack94]

nissan should go back to inline 6 engines

[@datsun100a3]

nobody does those anymore unfortunetly. the most modern inline 6 i can think of would be the 2009 Trailblazer

[@Saud-mt4wi]

here in the middle east, we still get an I6 TB48 engine in a Nissan patrol safari y61 which is a great engine.

[@nik7bkh965]

@@datsun100a3 There are many good inline 6s on the market. Especially BMW makes the best ones imo, thats why Toyota teamed up with them for the new supra, that BMW B58 is one of the best if not the best inline 6 cylinder engine on the market right now with tons of tuning potential

[@alf279]

I knew I liked this car but now I know I want one of these in my life very much.
