What is the most attractive part of a Z?

Profile and potential for performance. As Jon has posted a number of times, the original Z, whether 240 or 280 doesn't go or handle with a modern car even a sedan, but due to outstanding looks and light weight the potential is there for a lot of fun.

Hey Vicky, what would Scott say?

With as three varied cars in your stable, and the customization on ZRUSH, I would think there would be more to it-there is soo much to appreciate on all three of your cars!

What is the most attractive part of a Z?

Gee where to begin?

I love the looks, performance, quality engineering, the way the Z handles on the road, interior style like the awesome instrumentation. I could go on and on

The simple, yet sophisticated styling that simultaneously serves a utility purpose. Example: the map light, the interior door handles

It's gotta be the transition of the roof to the rear hatch area. The side shot of the 1/4 window in the rear.

I voted profile, but I think the hood is the best part of a Z car.

In the grander scheme of things the profile is probably the most attractive part of the z, but I voted for "It's Mine" because I love my z and I think it's more beautiful than any other z out there.

I voted profile as the Z is the most beautiful car to me. Everything said about performance, quality, hood swoop, roof line, etc. I agree fully with. I also have a passion with many of you here for learning the history of the car and the different variations and models throughout the years (70-78 please).

As many have already stated....the looks of the early Z's is outstanding and timeless! So, #1 is looks, #2 is.....its mine and its paid for!

My favorite view of the Z is sitting in the drivers seat looking out over the awesome hood/front fender design. :-)

I voted for the profile which can be viewed from so many angles and the design holds up. Initially the look of the car is what I remember the most as a kid and then later when I was old enough to understand the mechanical aspect of the S30's it became 'perfect transportation' in my eyes.

I should have also voted for wheels since they can augment the look of the car. Enclosed are two recent pics of the '77 280Z with 16 inch wheels:
