TO LOOK AT, Nissan's latest Z car is more Audi TT than Datsun 240Z - but it's a thoroughly contemporary and appealing styling job nonetheless. Borrowing the odd theme from other sports coupes, it fashions them into a shape that catches the eye for all the right reasons. Nissan says there are 240Z styling elements in the new car, but they are only really noticeable from the inside, where some parts of the dash recall the past. Under this though, the 350Z is a focussed, almost raw sports car that puts at a remote distance suggestions from long ago that the breed was going soft. The latest 350Z has punch, poise and class - and it costs a lot less than comparable European sports coupes.
