Nissan 300 ZX

One of the best cars in a long line of Z-named Nissan sports coupes was the 300 ZX, introduced in 1990 and discontinued in 1996. Car enthusiasts really respect this model since it was a proper sports coupe with technology and performance that could rival much more expensive and exclusive cars (via Auto Data).

The twin-turbo V6 engine pumped 300 hp, and the 300 ZX could accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 5.5 seconds and top 150 mph. Today, the 300 ZX is a coveted modern classic, as one of this list’s most universally usable cars.
