ist very hard to make choice about it... but for me is Z32

Wish I could vote on more than one. I drove a 280zx (s130) in high school so that would be my top choice. But a buddy had a 300zx (z32) in college and man was that a honey magnet. These are my top 2.

The Z32 was the nicest Z ever made

At heart I love all Z’s but the S30 is a cornerstone of automotive design so it takes it by a landslide. You can plug that bitch into any time period and it fits no matter what. Yoshihiko Matsuo was a genius.

If I have to pick just one it's the current-gen, impossible-to-find Z (RZ34).

If I'm allowed to rank:

1. Z (RZ34)
2. 350Z (Z33)
3. 370Z (Z34)
4. 300ZX (Z32)
5. The rest

I almost bought a 350Z, but got a G35 Coupe 6MT instead. Is the 350Z the first with the vertical hinged door handle?

I was super interested in the 370Z, but got a G37S Coupe 6MT instead.

There is no new Q60 6MT...wait wait...no new Q60 at all! so I'll finally get a Z (maybe...if Nissan ever builds any).

I agree with you that the current-gen Z (RZ34) is a fantastic car, but I also have a soft spot for the 300ZX (Z32). That car was way ahead of its time in terms of technology and design, and it's still a blast to drive today.

As for the vertical hinged door handle, I believe you're right that the 350Z was the first Z car to feature that design. It's a small detail, but it really adds to the overall look and feel of the car.

A Z from overseas.

I don't think it's fair comparing cars over such a long time span. So I'm going to say that my favorite old-school Z would be the 240Z, and my modern-day pick would be a tie between the 350Z and the new Z.

I voted but I'm very biased, lol.
