An iconic piece of Japanese sports car history, Nissan’s series of Z cars have been around since the late '60s. Badged as Datsuns in the United States, the Z cars were highly desirable when brand-new, as they marked a sort of affordable entry into the sports car segment for eager enthusiasts. As time passed by, examples such as this first-generation 1971 Datsun 240Z Coupe have only appreciated in desirability, and value. So why not grab yourself a slice of Japanese automotive nirvana and buy this fully restored car? It’s got less than 1,500 miles on its rebuilt motor, and a slew of new parts.
Wearing a paint simply called Charcoal Effect that was applied in 2019, this 1971 Datsun 240Z Coupe has a sort of restomod vibe to it, a look that’s further enhanced by its shaved door handles and aftermarket black alloy wheels. In case you’re wondering how to open the doors, they’ve been upgraded to electric items for ease of use. The rest of the car remains mostly stock, right down to its head and taillamps, while a set of twin chromed tailpipes rakishly poke out from beneath the rear bumper. We’re told that the tires are new as well. The interior of this 1971 Datsun 240Z Coupe is said to be new, with new seats and new carpeting contributing towards the time capsule effect. You’ve got an aftermarket Kenwood audio player with Bluetooth capabilities, as well as a USB input, so that you can choose your tunes easily. Then, there’s a wood-topped gear shifter and a wood-rimmed steering wheel for added classic ambiance. Meanwhile, you’ve got some generous luggage space available, easily accessed via a rear glass liftback.
Featuring the L24 in-line six-cylinder engine, this 1971 Datsun 240Z Coupe has got plenty of grunt to match its looks. Displacing 2.4 liters, the engine uses two carburetors and was recently rebuilt. Factory figures are said to be 151hp and 146lb-ft. Furthermore, this rear-wheel drive car gets an upgrade to a 5-speed manual transmission. The car also comes with new brakes, so that you can drive it in a suitable fashion.

The 1972 Datsun 240Z represents one of the most important Japanese sports cars ever produced, blending European-inspired styling with reliability and affordability that reshaped the performance market in the early 1970s. Lightweight, balanced, and powered by Nissan’s smooth L24 inline-six, the 240Z earned immediate acclaim for delivering genuine sports car dynamics at a fraction of the cost of its European rivals. This example retains its naturally aspirated 2.4-liter inline-six paired with the factory 3-speed Jatco automatic transmission, offering a relaxed and approachable driving experience. Finished in red over a black interior, this 240Z captures the clean, purposeful design that made the model a global success and laid the foundation for decades of Z-car heritage.
Nissan’s epic line-up of Z-cars started way back in 1969 with the S30 series. With its straight-six engine and four-wheel independent suspension, it was truly a technological tour-de-force for the time, unlike competitors in the small sports car segment. For many overseas markets, including the United States, the car was sold under the Datsun brand. Now, the first-generation Z cars are firmly cemented in classic car culture, representing Japan’s finest with pride. If you’d like to own one of these iconic machines, here’s a 1970 Datsun 240Z up for sale right now with us.

This 1986 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Tojan represents a pinnacle of the "Tuner Era," being a GM-commissioned, factory-authorized supercar built by Knudsen Automotive to challenge European exotics. This specific survivor is exceptionally significant due to its all-original, unrestored condition with only over 63,000 miles shown, and its provenance as a special-order vehicle delivered to Stadium Pontiac in Anaheim. Equipped with high-end performance features like a Gale Banks suspension, Gotti wheels, and Recaro leather, this chassis serves as a documented benchmark for the model, having been featured in Pontiac Enthusiast Magazine. It is a rare "investment grade" example of 1980s engineering, distinguishing itself from contemporary kit cars as a legitimate, limited-production performance icon.
