The Nissan Z-cars usually refers to the sportscars manufactured by the brand, this range currently only has one occupant in the form of the 350Z. We already know this model will go slightly upmarket with its new 3.7 liter engine which will see the model renamed as 370Z, thus it leaves a large enough gap in its portfolio to launch a new model.

An entry level rear-wheel-drive sportscar has been stuck in the rumour mill over the last couple of years and these new renderings from Polish designer Iacoski are only likely to stimulate the discussions once again.
Iacoski's love of the old Fairlady inspired him to create a new modern version, the long front bonnet, short rear end and smooth curvaceous roof profile clearly pays homage to the series. Obviously recent Nissan design styles have influenced the renderings, we can clearly see a front fascia mimicking the design of the GT-R.

 

Wow, thanks for sharing... I'd pick up a new 240 in a heartbeat, loved my old 240SX. Such a well balanced, cheap, and fun car.

 

I think it may look better than the GT R.

 

I will be first in line for one of these. I have been looking at old 240's for a while but just can not pull the trigger untill I get my Boxster done. The first stick shift car I ever drove was my friends 77 240Z.....aww memories. Thanks DJ

BTW notice the Datsun logo in the grill SWEEEET!
