The Z is no longer the Nissan topdog in the US. 15 years ago the Z was the flagship Nissan car and the 240SX was selected by the people that could not afford to own a Z. Now the 240SX isn't in the equation, and the GTR is here. Lately I've seen a lot of kids (19 - 25) driving the affordable 350Z while aspiring to own a GTR. What I'm saying is, a guy goes into a dealership, he has $40,000. 350Z is $40, GTR is $80. He only wants a sports car so Nissan has two choices. What do you think he's gonna pick? 15 years ago a guy went into a dealership. He had $20,000. 240SX is $20, 300ZX is $45. He only wants a sports car so Nissan has two choices. What did he pick? 240SX. 1990 Nissan 300ZX 1982 Datsun 200SX Cardomain website
