Datsuh's 280ZX is to driving as Fred Astaire's
shoes were tc dancing; Thus equipped, you can't
stop moving.
Movement seems to be built into the 280ZX, not
only in the styling's liquid lines, but somewhere
the core of the machinery itself. After a few turns at
the wheel, you find you want to go traVel, prefera-
bly a long way. More than that, the comiort and
sensuality of the machine makes it an absolute
necessity that the, Woman you consider the most
beautifulin the world must join you, for this is a car
that•should be shared. •
So it was that I found .myself driving to Montreal
to see the Grand Prix du Canada, a trip I hadn't
planned, but which became entirely logical when
the 280ZX fell into mv hands. The most beautiful
woman in the waid being otherwise occupied, my
son joined me and we took off for Ottawa, Montreal,
and wherever else, we might decide to explore. ,
INTERIOR: We were assured comfortable ac-
commodations so long as we kept driving: We.
couldn't possibly have afforded such style in a
motel room, The driver '"gets adjustable lumbar•
support for his lower back; the seat raises or lowers
for the comfort of the thighs; and Of course the
seatback itself reclines to taste.
The stereo comes with a' wonderful little joy crick.
Stir it around and the mix of the sound from tne four
corners of the interior changes.

fifth gear. With the engine whistling its turbine-like
song at that speed, however, the car itself is moving
at about 170 kilometres per hour.
The tachtimeter orange line is at 6,000rpm, but
'' in' oaf 'drivers will shift earlier. The Dqtsun is
smooth through the gears, credit to a rewarding
gearbox in the test car and a light clutch, but it isn't
the free-revving winder that is the Mazda RX/7.
Third will take you to 140kpli at 6,000. for instance,
but its ,a long trip.
No, the Z-car in its present form is perfect for
high speed touring. With its strong four•wheel disc
brakes and predictable handling, it'ssimply a Joy at
speeds that would be a strain in many respected
automobiles. There really ought to be special high-
Ways for cars in this league, connecting, major
cities such as Toronto,. North Bay, Ottawa, King-
ston and Montreal, open only to specially tested
drivers, allowing lkokpti rapid transit. Ontario-
bahns, if you will, a wonderful make-work
project.
One final bonus with the 280ZX: Despite a lot of
high speed driving. including bursts up to 180k0h,
the car produced 34.6 kilometres per gallon or U.7
miles per gallon. Any normal highway driving with
a broken-in 280ZX ought to produce at least 40kpg.
HANDLING: Anyone 'serious about testing the
Datsun's capabilities on sharp corners will want to
switch to harder shooks and springs. The existing
suspension compromises make the 280ZX capable'
enough, but'lean too mlich toward ride fo the tastes
of hard-line enthusiasts. Driven aggressively in
cloverleafs and similar situations. the Datsun's tail
will sluice out, spoiling the driver's fun.
The basic softness of the car also shows up in the
Amote clunk you hear when going on and off the
gas abruptly at high rpms, which suggests the rear
end isn't as securely , located as it might have
been.
The other side of the story, of course, is that the
Datsun delivers a fine ride. And my experience was
that the car was never anything but exemplary at
high cruising speeds, crouching dd'wn On long
sweeping corners at 170kpli.
The power steering (part of the GL package,
you'll recall) was a model of its kind at all speeds,
extremely light imparking moves and just right qn
the highway. I'd class it with that of BMW, which is
at the opposite extreme of the Mil-effort no-feel
power steering offered by AMC and Chrysler.
IN CONCLUSION: Few cars inspire as much
conversation as did this test car, proof that Nis-
san/Datsun has done a remarkable job In finding
new life in a design that fist showed up herein 1970,
"I love this car, and 1 don't even like cars," said
Jac Holland, who took the photograph on this page.
