Well, I didn't mean to make this into a "is the 240sx ever going to be a classic" discussion but that's what happened. It's funny this kind of attitude towards the "it'll never be a classic" was the exact same way people thought about their cars in the 60's and 70's. Daily driver mustangs, camaros, challengers, cudas, GTXs, tempests, GTOs, 442s. Even go back to the 50's, the tri-fives (55, 56, 57) chevrolet bel airs / 210s in their all original forms are going for insane amounts of money. All of these in perfect, pristine, 'matching numbers' condition are selling for upwards of $100k+, in some rare cases even more.

Now, I guarantee you back in the 50s, 60s, and 70s no one was giving thoes cars much thought. Now, while the production numbers for some of the vehicles slightly differ from the kind of mass production we see todays, only the "specialty" cars will fetch the highest prices. I wouldn't doubt it if 30 years from now the 350z or even 370z Nismo cars don't become desirable collectibles and stop becoming history and start becoming legend.

Okay, enough rambling let the discussion continue.

personally i can't wait till i can afford to pick up a z33 for only 5-6k (probably in pretty beat shape) and make it my track only car.
