If I cared that much for the cars that came after the S30s...........!
Turn it around, if it wasn't for the S30s (and the 280Z outsold the earlier cars) then the later cars wouldn't have been around either !
In fact, it's more thanks to Nissan who developed the Z series theme and produced a car that did sell so well ! Let's not blame or congratulate a hunk of metal !
And all respect to Mike but the 280ZX's success in the U.S.A. that lifted the Fairlady range to the title of "Best Selling Sports Car of all Time", only recently usurped by the Mazda MX-5 hasn't granted it a place in history and some respect ! The lowly selling 240Z has it all !
Look around, what do people think of the 280, even in the States ? And do people look at a Z32 and think, wow, there's the Z that finish 5th at Le Mans - best ever Nissan finish and it won at Sebring in the same year ? Do they heck !
