I've been revuing all the Z books I can get my hands one (yes Mr Burns - you will get the copies when I've finished) and I've come across certain interestings facts :
where do you think the first reference came from to liken the 240Z as the Big Healeys' successor ? (I personally admit that I detest this simili as I consider the Healey to be full of charisma but a bag of s**t).
Is it not surprising that in the States (a large Healey market) that the Z has never once been compared to said car, rather the E-Type, Corvette, 911 ?
Who started the rumour that Goertz had taken Nissan to court over the origin of the 240Zs design ?
Who started the rumour that Goertz designed it anyway ?
Where did the idea come from that the Z series were designed especially for the States or indeed for the export market ?
It is interesting to read all the UK Z reports and hear that luckily the Z came along to replace the British sportscars, especially in the States - makes me laugh this arrogant and blinkered vision - the Z squashed the opposition and was why the others disappeared, not a successor but a dominator !
