1978 Datsun 280Z 5-Speed

This 1978 Datsun 280Z is a classic sports car, manufactured in Japan and now residing in Aurora, Colorado. This particular Z-car stands out with its green repaint over brown vinyl, replacing its original finish while maintaining the iconic slatted rear lights and hidden headlights that define this era of Japanese automotive design. The car retains its stock 5-speed manual transmission and features newer 14" steel wheels, plus a welcoming touch of air conditioning, rare for its time. It has been well-travelled, having lived in multiple states including New Jersey, Virginia, California, Alabama, and Colorado. Despite its journey, it remains in active online listings, currently fetching bids at $8,600.
