I'd still keep him around as Nail, or some other bit parts.

The victim of violent head trauma as an infant [...] he's a simple bumpkin with a fair share of brain damage who's natural talents to work out what's wrong compensate for his broad lack of common sense. But he's also a fighter, through and through [...] he fight until he has, in no uncertain terms, beaten his enemy on terms they can both acknowledge. He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can. He's an ineffably charming bastard who's manly leanings were really incendental, and yes, the fact that he was voiced by a squeaky woman made the combination perhaps all the more charming.

Soppa Saiyjins from Dorgou Ballru Zetto is my favorite transformation everah, especially when Trounksoru did it in front of Seru and when Bejita did it when he faced Jingonigen-hachigo. But for real, I use the FUNi pronunciation. - Soppa Saia People

On the notion of filler, my pro-stance on Kai says it all.

In terms of actual animation, I would not mind the new-style animation at all, but I would prefer seeing the art style reflect Toriyama's art style for each story arc while using new animation techniques.

If the obvious "redrawn from the ground up so it doesn't look awful" answer is out of the question, Kai is pretty much as close to perfect as you can get. Otherwise, a straightforward adapatation with little to no filler, and Kikuchi's score. Basically, do Z like the first Dragon Ball was done.

Well I guess if the new animation is out, then, well, um...regular ol' Z but just with a better cast and the dub music.

To me it has to follow the manga 100 percent. That's all I care about.
The series doesn't start with the arrival of Raditz. Stop being lazy and watch Dragonball.

Really my ideal version of the series would be the Dragonbox we have- just with a DBZ movies 1-3 quality Ocean dub on the English half. I couldn't get anything better than that.
