A replica of the iconic Japanese sports car

The Nissan Fairlady 240ZG, also known as the Datsun 240ZG on export markets, is an icon of Japanese automotive history. The ZG model was offered exclusively in the Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) in the early 1970s as a homologation version for Group 4 motorsport competitions. Key features of this variant include the extended front "G-nose" fender, distinctive round headlights with clear covers, and wide fender flares. The car quickly became renowned for its phenomenal power-to-weight ratio and excellent handling, making it a beloved choice for both sports driving enthusiasts and tuners alike.
