"The work order number for the manufacture and production of the car was 240Z"

This part is incorrect if I recall right, and someone please post the story / link.

If I recall, the reason the car got renamed 240Z was due to the displacement of the engine and that the letter Z in Japanese denotes the symbol for the ultimate, or something like that. The engine displacement definitely was part of the name. (otherwise why 260, 280 and 300, and now 350?)
