Better than a behemoth, better than an Alfa, the 280Z is the epitome of Zapan know-how. If Zorro had a car, there's a good chance (in our opinion) that it would be a 280Z. Powerful, elegant and fun, it ticks all the boxes of the pleasure car. You too can become the masked avenger of the back roads, and treat yourself to this flamboyant Datsun 280Z.
