Z Cars On TV And In Movies

Posted September 12, 20177 yr

I thought that there was a forum for this though did not see it nor could I find a related thread so I'm starting one.

I recently saw an S30 Z car on Miami Vice season 3 episode 11 about 30-33 minutes in (on the TV version with commercials, a DVD version it will be earlier that this of course). In this video it is about 27-28 minutes in: https://www.nbc.com/classic-tv/miami-vice/video/forgive-us-our-debts/n30591

Actually there is a search option on IMBD that has a big list, here is the link!

There are 1st gen Zs in Top Gun, Mission Impossible, Herbie, Criminal Minds, etc...

There's like 7 pages there of Zs!

In Cars 2 there are at least 5 S30's in the background When they go to the Japan Grand Prix. The gongs in the opening ceremony are Datsun hubcaps.

Did you look hard enough?

Old Fart members like me know where all the bones are buried

Gotta love when they put a rocket booster in one for a stunt & jump it in The Fall Guy.

This is resurrecting a semi-old thread, but I was watching The Rookie TV show tonight and was glad to see that S30s (in this case a 280Z) are still alive in new TV shows!
