I absolutely love my car, but be sure you can work on it, or you have the funds necessary for upkeep...
I have a 94 and a shop that loves working on it..
Some things to watch for, if you got a convertible parts are almost impossible to get. The front end shock struts will cost you, I had mine replaced for about $700.

Injector Trouble by jnicely

I have a 93 300ZX NA and it seems I'm having injector trouble. I just replaced the #1 injector and now another miss is happening and I'm being told that the #4 injector needs replacing. Question is, should I replace all the rest while I got the intake off? Is there a new fuel rail I should look at putting on?

The nissan 300zx are easily maintained with regular maintenance.
Check for engine noises, hard starts, and if the cars cuts off and stalls.
If you smell oil, or see oil coming out around the tailpipes beware!
Check to see if any lights come on, while you are inside the car with the gauges.
Check the clutch, steering, and the brakes well, to make sure they work properly.
Check to see if a maintenace schedule, has been done on the car aas well.
You can get cheaper car parts for them, at the autowharehouse.com.
They sell genuine parts at half the price, and they ship them out quickly.
I own a 1985 nissan 300zx non turbo coupe 2 plus 2.
I also own a 1994 twin turbo coupe with many upgrades.
They are really great cars to have.
