280Z is kind of a porker.

Well, as far as 1985 goes, the 12A and 13B were both offered. You could only get the 13B, however, by stepping up to the GSL-SE, which is exactly what my father had back in '85. So... was it heavier? Well, yeah, I guess it was. But only by as much as power windows, leather, and EFI components weigh.
 
The 2+2 Z is about 175 lbs heavier than the 2-seater. Looks like the wheelbase is about another 8 inches. As Shifty said, though, its a porker either way. Just over 2800 lbs for the 2-seater and just under 3k for the 2+2.

I like that 1979 Electra Limited and it's even got the 403 V-8 I prefer. Personally, I'd get the Buick chrome wheels I had on my '79 Park Ave and put them on it. Too bad it's so far away.

Diesel greed, but a lovely looking old tank...offer it for half that and it would almost be tempting...
 
Spelling both words wrong doesn't bode well

Well at least that Alfer Romano doesn't have the 20,000 mile automatic transmission that the 164 is famous for.
 
I had a 164. Fun car, but it'll keep you busy.

Spelling both words wrong...TWICE
 
The 300SD is indeed nice, looks almost like new, but for that price you can find much newer examples.

That kit car is a disaster looking thing. I'm not sure if a "rare" piece of a kit is considered valuable in the kit car community, or4 that it has the correct "Dino roofline" but I don't think it'll impress others, as it still is a Fiero kit car no matter how you look at it.

I think I would prefer it as a Fiero!
 
Those wheels won't fool anyone

A fake is a fake is a fake. The only fakes I ever saw retain some value were the Cobra kit cars, and then, only the best of them.
