For a total of 161,878 350z's.

I'm going to say no to a major increase in value.
According to Z Design, 240Z production numbers are:
1969 = 3
1970 = 17,005
1971 = 40,219
1972 = 60,025
1973 = 51,332
------ Total 168,584

Pretty similar numbers on 240Z's. While they aren't bringing longhood $$, Hagerty has them around $15k currently - I would think that would have to be a REALLY good one. Compared to a sub-$4k MSRP in 1970 that's pretty good.

However - I think the 240Z was a lot more revolutionary than the 350Z. It's a good car, but isn't the car with a ton of race victories that helped establish Japanese sports cars as a whole, much less Nissan as a brand.

Now, performance Korean cars, if they start winning GT races... could be a different story there.
