One would only hope - anyone who buys that would want to use them to escape the public ridicule of being seen in such a piece of rolling ugliness.

I've driven a BN 240Z (a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...), and THAT ugly thing is most certainly not a 240Z.

That car is as much a 240Z as the new Charger is the old Charger.

I am no expert in the Z-car lore. But isn't the 350Z an evolution of the 240Z.... 280Z... 300ZX over the years? How could there be a return of the 240Z when the Z is already here for a few years now updated and with a larger engine?
It is like saying the return of the EVO IV or 318i or 911 SC?
