I’ve always been a fan of Datsun 240Z and Nissan 280Z/300ZX series… Now, Nissan brought awesome GTR (though controversial with unfair horsepower reporting) to the fans…
Then I found these mouth-watering awesome concept designs on Datsun 240Z/Fairlady! If you recall, 240Z had long hood and was fairly quick to its feet in its time. I really hope that they bring this to reality… ’cause I’d buy one in a heartbeat! This is also reminiscing of 240SX, also known in Japan as Fairlady.

Kinda confused…is this a rendering of the next Z or is Nissan thinking of reintroducing the 240SX?
If it is the new Z, then from the looks of it (and I can be totally wrong as I am looking at a rendering and not a real car)it is reversing a trend that I have been seeing in Nissan performance cars – that of getting bigger, heavier and more powerful. This seems smaller (and thus probably lighter) than the current Z. Cant wait to see the specs.
Oh, also I believe the 240SX is known as the Silvia not Fairlady. I think the Fairlady is Z.
You are right on the Silvia part! I don’t know how I could get that confused!
As for the design, it’s a design STUDY by a separate design firm.
you guys seriously dont know what a 240z is? wow.. thats a shame. this is a 240z (fairlady z) concept.. not a 240sx (silvia) concept.
