Nissan 300ZX - Naturally Aspirated - Z31 (1984 to 1989)

As a follow up to the 280ZX, the Z31-Chassis 300ZX appeared in 1984 presenting a significant change to the Z formula, with a naturally aspirated three-liter V6 rather than the previous inline six powerplants. A more angular design, with partially-hidden retractable headlamps, greeted sports car and luxury GT fans alike. Most were sold with a T-top body style and an optional 2+2 seating configuration was also available. The 1984 model year wore both Datsun and Nissan badges on the decklid, as Nissan was transitioning away from the older Datsun brand name. A turbocharged 300ZX was also available, although sales for that variant are tracked seperately.
