So your what, 60? Youd have to be to have shopped for a 240z when new.

Not defending the kid, just saying..

Also a 240Z was not "cheap", sure it was not astronomical like a Jaguar or Porsche, it was more than moat cars.

Base was ~$4,300 an with options $5,500 was possible.

'Vettes started in the low $5k range and a Camaro SS was $3,900.

Not 60 lol, Though I am old enough to have owned 10 240Z's in the 80's . To have started out with a 72 Datsun 510 4 door and a 69 Datsun 510 2 door in high school. I had my own Japanese engine and transmission business in the 80's.

Actually 4k for the Z in 1970 was cheap and there were not many options air and radio come to mind. . Considering the cars it was lined up against aka the 911, Triumph Spitfire, ETC.. which all were around 7-10k.
Also what you go for the money you paid? It was a real game changer.

Yes I am older and yes I have been playing with Nissan's for some 25 years plus. Why, because I like them. I like other cars as well and have owned other cars. Though having owned and owning cars specific to Zilvia I am here.
