The Nissan 300ZX is a sports car produced across two generations, and as with every Z it was sold in the Japanese domestic market as the Fairlady Z. It was sold in Japan from 1983 to 2000 and in the United States from 1984 to 1996, following the numerical naming of the original Fairlady Z (S30) that the United States knew as the 240Z, with the X carried over from the 280ZX to signal more luxury and comfort features. The first generation Z31 was built from 1983 to 1989 and became the highest volume Z-car for Nissan. The second generation was pushed up-market with more advanced technology and a higher price, and sales dwindled each year. The newer Z-car was powered by Japan's first mass-produced V6 engine instead of the inline-sixes of earlier Zs.
