A pristine 1971 Datsun 240Z just sold for a record-breaking $310,000
A near-mint 1971 Datsun 240Z sold for $310,000 on online auction site Bring a Trailer earlier this week.
With its sleek design and classic status, the Datsun 240Z has been gaining value on the used market.
But $310,000 was practically unheard of for the car, with most Datsun 240Zs on Bring a Trailer selling for less than $50,000.
The highest sale on the site before this one, which was considerably higher than other sale prices at the time, went for $124,240 midway through last year.
