1971-73 Datsun 240Z

Hagerty Insurance suggests the original Z for those wanting to break into car collecting without breaking the bank. The 240Z was a groundbreaking, but very affordable, performance car. Never again would anyone doubt that Japanese automakers were capable of making great cars.

As with other cars in this gallery, the estimated value is for a nicer, but not necessarily perfect, example.
