Z32 (2 seater) - 3200lbs
Z33 - 3200-3600lbs
Z34 - 3250lbs
The 240Z was only 2355lbs lol.
My 240SX at ~2700lbs felt very quick with it's mere 155fwhp

What you don't mention is that much of the added weight is due to Government-mandated safety features. Without the mandated features, the Z34 would have come in much lighter than the Z33!
