Okay with me if it's okay with jcliffro--I don't want to change his topic title without his approval.   Shifty the Host
#7 of 171 1984-1986 300ZX models by jcliffro Aug 03, 2002 (6:37 pm)
I have no objection to expanding the discussion to include earlier Z models. I just happen to favor the look of the 1984-1986 models best. I did not like the color coordinated bumpers of the later models, so felt like there should be some special bond between the 84-86 owners. But input from any Z owner who can't part with his baby is always good to hear. I can't believe you still have the original clutch on your 1982 Z. But I think I have a heavy left foot, especially while backing down my long driveway; mine had to be replaced at about 60,000 miles and at 13 years of age (not too bad since most of the mileage has been city mileage). With the stock market like it is, I decided to hold off on getting a second car, so the Z remains my one and only and predict it will be for some time.

Well give it time. Often it helps to include a link or photo of your own to get things rolling. Somebody might dig up a good history of the Z car on the web, for instance. Also if you see an an interesting Z for sale on Ebay, you could post that link, too.   I could talk some about values and possible collectible status in the future.   We could also go to the other boards and invite Nissan people over here.

Or we could just limit this to the kickin' 1990-1996 Turbo models. Vero saw that silver one at the mall parking lot exactly one week ago and still dreams of it every night.

Well go buy one. They aren't that expensive!

How much do you think '90s ZX cars would sell for?
#13 of 171 by Mr_Shiftright HOST Aug 07, 2002 (2:18 pm)
A clean driver? Oh, maybe $6,500-7,500. They are priced like nice used cars, not collectibles...by that I mean the older they are the less they cost, as opposed to a collectible, which, usually, costs more as it gets older.   Of course, someday the 300ZX might bottom out and start to rise again, but not anytime soon since there are a lot of them surviving.

Shifty, the chance of me finding a nice, clean one here in the Detroit area is approximately   ZILCH   as you might have realized.
#15 of 171 Newer ZXs by pap5 Aug 08, 2002 (4:56 am)
I've yet to see a twin turbo priced below 5 figures, and even the non-turbos in decent shape seem to go no lower than about $10,000, at least here in the D.C. market. Not that I've looked extensively as a potential buyer would.
