1993 Nissan 100NX Targa review from Latvia
"Nice ride, especially for such a low price!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Third cylinder malfunctioned just after purchase.
Exhauster fall off by disconneting from the exhaust pipe.
General comments?
When third cylinder went off, I was thinking that I should sell this car immideately, but it was cheap to fix the problem (something with a spark-plug connector).
The performance is... well, I expected more. It wouldn't beat any landspeed records, and it is not suitable for any type of a drag race.
T-bar is nice, and it is surprisingly easy to install or remove it.
Fuel consumption is VERY high. About 10-11 liters for 100 km without accelerating like crazy.
Backseat is a decoration, but in an extreme situation, you can try to take aboard the third passenger.
Looks better with larger alloys and low-profile tyres.
Large, spacious trunk, especially if so called "backseat" is removed.
Easy to maneuver, especially when driving backwards.
I liked it. So far...
