It's not a fairlady or fairlady Z (350Z/370Z in the american market). It's actually a S15 Silvia which was based off of the 200SX. The 240SX is also a derivative of of the 200SX if that helps. Always love seeing imported or old japanese cars in the U.S.

An Orange Fiat 128. First time to ever see one on the road.
Also saw an Alfa Alfetta in white couldn't make out if it was a GT or GTV and a black Alfa spider.

Seen today on I-280 in Los Altos Hills, CA.

What is this? A Catterham? Driver was wearing a helmet. It was a mild day, about 65 out there.

Various Ferraris, Mustangs, Mercedes seen racing around, town appear to be a part of a car club participating in a annual Turkey Run.

Cops busted many of them for various violations.

If so, it was a conversion. The 2+2 was not available with the twin turbo. My brother in law has a 91 twin turbo two seat 300ZX. Original owner. All stock. Great car. I had a red 91 300ZX 2+2 for a few years, sole it in 2015.

Its the Americanized version.

S14 Silvia—-> Japan and some countries, available with the SR20 and SR20DET.

200SX—-> European model the same as the Japanese one.

240SX—-> In the U.S. it was once again called the 240SX… KA24DE was only available…

Silvia S15 info:

Silvia S15—-> Available in Japan and in Europe, SR20DE and SR20DET were available.

200SX—-> In Australia and New Zealand the S15 was called a 200SX…

North America—-> We never got them….

Today I saw a Chevy SS and a Buick Cascada next to each other at a light - two of GM's slowest sellers in one place.

Looks like a mid-'70s Avanti II. Not a legit Studebaker Avanti due to the squared headlights, although it is fairly rare. Pretty sweet-looking Dinan E39 M5 parked just up the street from it, as well as a 993 Cab.
