300ZX with 2425 miles...

[boyRacer]

Talk about markup... that's almost 2 350Zs... :Q... haven't seen a 300ZX with that low of a mileage in a while though...

...not even a turbo...

 

[UDT89]

thats hard to trust

 

[NutBucket]

And its not even turbo!!!

EDIT: Missed that in the original post.

Friend of mine has an 83' 280ZX all original with less then 70k in his garage.

 

[WinkOsmosis]

I can see it being worth twice that. It IS a classic.

Yea, if it was a turbo, it would be a good deal But, it'd still be something neat to have

thats an opinion. Personally, i think the 300ZX's looked horrible.

Beautiful car, but T Tops are a killer. Those cars are expensive... but that seems a bit much. The cheapest I can find an 89' ZX for with under 200k is $5000

 

[boyRacer]

This one looks nice... but mileage is too high... has more mileage than my 1990 car... sigh... that car had an ass or what.

 

[ElFenix]

too many pictures!


*not* a classic. 240Z, classic.

$65K, even for a TURBO would be pretty steep, even if it's got less than 3K mileage. I find the mileage claim a bit hard to swallow. A thorough research of this car's VIN...not just the one on the dashboard, but the one on the engine and transmission is in order.

Sounds like a stolen/wrecked/chopshop insurance job to me.

That said, I lusted after these cars back in the days when I couldn't afford them. Chick magnets and true sports cars to be sure.

RIP 300ZX turbo/Mazda RX7/Mitsu 3000GT VR4. We miss you!!!

You don't miss the Supra huh?... sniff sniff...

 

[Jmman]

Guys, this appears to be a special anniversary edition , serial numbered, and only 300 made. That is why the price is so high....

My friend bought a 300ZX about 2 months ago for $6500. Non-turbo '91 with 130k on it. Not a bad deal, though it needed new tires. (they were about $500 or $600 I think)

Is it running ok though?

As a former owner of a '90 2+2 with over 100k I'd say good luck after 100K them things need TLC and alot of cash for upkeep. I hope it already had the belts changed the timing belt is over 1k to get changed you have to completely take out the radiator to do it. Aell at least it is a non-turbo the turbo at 130k would be lucky to run at all.

this eB@Y car has a $40k+ sticker new (yes even the non-turbo) in '96 it is a collector car but $65K is stretching it.

I'm still looking for a '95 turbo with low low miles as the '96's turbo has less HP. Look at this bargain!

You're looking too huh... i'm just scouting around as i'm still saving money. I haven't even decided yet but i would imagine it's quite hard to find any of those japanese turbo cars... Most of them always have over 60k miles...

 

[CraigRT]

man, I f****** love those cars... if the insurance wasn't so much i would have picked up that 91 TT back in 2000...

that's totally retarded though for an NA 96
WAY*** too much..

long live the Z car!

 

[UDT89]

paying 65k for 1996 technology doesnt sit right......as far as being a classic.......i dont think so.

you've been in the barrio too much man

Why was there a 26-year commemorative edition? And why was this car driven 2500 miles without being titled? Nice car, but there is no way I would pay more than 20K for it. KBB says this car, with this milage, is worth $20,690 retail in my ZIP code.

I don't think it was so much a commemorative edition as a final edition - The end of it's line.

Of course now it's been revived, along with the RX-8.

Now all we need is the Supra, we already have some nice twin turbo AWD cars.

See my post above about "insurance job/stolen/chop shop". Something doesn't smell right about this vehicle.

Ahhhhh - of course! I had not thought of that. It still seems like a total rip-off to me, even if it is not some kind of wrecked vehicle. I do not assume there is anything wrong with it, but you'd think that if there were a simple, innocent explanation (if, for example, the dealer somehow lost it in their inventory), they would articulate it - it seems bizarre that anyone would put a Nissan, even a rare one, in storage with the hope it would appreciate in value. It's not as though the car has any special performance pieces, or anything other than a small badge to set it apart from every other non-TT 300ZX.
