Very nice. I'd still rather have a classic Datsun 240Z

My uncle had a P1800 and I thought it was the coolest thimg going.

Forget that it had the power to weight ratio of a house...

[mybrainhurts]

Interesting...

I wouldn't like to roll one, though....

[Evo]

Forget the Volvo, i want that Nissan, bit like Elanor

Sure is. R33 skyline (rb26dett) powered 240z.
Few more pics.

The Volvo looks great - but this is the original super 240Z....

[gamefreaks]

Not keen on the wheels.

That is truely arse-achingly gorgeous. They can't show us eye-candy like that and then not make it. Get it made already!!!

If they could make a car like that but a reasonable spec and power, I would happily buy one. A modern car wrapped in that body? Why is no-one doing this! (Although I dislike the size of the wheels, too large)

Agree. I wish car manufacturers would release some retro looking cars instead of the smooth lines, aerodynamic stuff that they currently make.

The 240z is the most awesome Japanese car that I have ever seen. Too bad its such an expensive car
