I was saying, no one in there right mind calls a Camaro a 'Z' by itself in reference to the entire car.
Pretty much everyone that I know calls a LS1/LT1 Camaro a Z, but then again we are all pretty much crazy.
The "Z28, and IROC-Z" are TRIM levels of the car Camaro. The Datsun/Nissan cars, are by heritage all "Z" cars, not trims. And thats why they get to be called, by the name of the car not the trim a "Z", or a "Z car".
When a "trim level" changes the entire powertrain of the car, it becomes a different animal. For example, would you refer to a 1964 GTO as a Lemans/Tempest...? No way!!....it's a GTO even though the GTO designation was only a Trim level.
And don't even try to go on about how you own one so you must know.
First of all I have never "gone on" about owning anything. Secondly, I also own a 280Z so I see my opinion as objectionable between the two, I like them both.
To further prove this lets turn to Google search results:
Results for "Z Car" -
All Nissan / Datsun. For every link, for the first two+ pages. Which is as far as I checked.
What does this prove? You are searching the term "Z car". I never have referd to my Z as "Z car", only as a "Z".
