Of all the bikes and cars that came and went over time which one would you like to see bought back to life using modern Tech? For me the Suzuki RE5 is one I reckon was way before its time.

Kawasaki 750 tripple widow maker with twisty frame included, and the yamaha rd 250 and 350 twins.
Bike - Ducati 900ss. Just oozed class. And on the dirt side - Maico 440. Scary. Car - Holden SLR5000. They don't make cars as raw anymore. Maybe a 1st gen RX7.

Isn't that what the 400z is supposed to be? It certainly is stylistically.

yeah. nah. Having owned both; despite being less "flavor of the month" the SWB 280Z Targa Top was far better to live with.

XE Falcon with modern safety systems and a firewall drain vent that works properly. Those cars handle a lot of power, yet handle great.

3.3 FD with no modern tech

JB74 Jimny is pretty much a reborn SJ410 from the early 80's.

But that is the whole point. With modern tech it wont drive like that. It will have up to date suspension, drivetrain etc. We are talking a completely new car that looks like a 240z just like the Mini, Beetle or Fiat 500. In my opinion the Datsuns after the 260z where getting bloated and lost the "fun factor" to drive on a winding back road.
