Faults:

The climate control system thinks that it is in the Arctic. It blows only hot air all the time. The dealer wants $1200 for a new climate control unit.

The driver's side window works only when it wants to.

General Comments:

This car is fast! It hugs the turns and has absolutely no body roll. It is not the best car for interstate driving, however, driving through the Siskiyu Mountains of Southern Oregon/Northern California is a blast! The cruise control holds the speed either up the mountain or down. For being a 16 yr old car, it still has great performance and gets lots of looks. I love the t-tops!

Faults:

There was only a few minor things that have gone wrong with my 300zx.

For example:

I had to replace the transmit-ion. It wasn't that bad though, because I already had the car for 5years.

The only other thing I can think of is that, the wheels came off while driving. This was due too bad installation of the tires by the mechanic.

General Comments:

This car is fast! It handles like a dream. It hugs corners like no other car I have had.

The seats are very comfortable and there is lots of leg room.

However, the air conditioner does not work and the windows are not tinted so, it does get very hot inside!

Also it is starting to wear badly inside, but that's not it's fault. I can't stop driving it!

The performance on this car is like no other. If you want a nice car, but don't want to pay the high prices. I would suggest you for a 300zx!Because once you 300zx, you never go back!

Faults:

The second day I had the car I blew the engine up. I had a rebuilt engine replace it, though.

The t-tops leak on the passenger side, fixable but costly ($200 +).

The fuel gauge is not accurate and hasn't been the entire time I have owned the car. That too is also fixable but costly.

The drivers side window motor had to be replaced, the brake master cylinder had to be replaced twice, and the radio was great when working but I had to replace that too.

The rear quarter panel windows had to be resealed due to leaks.

The air conditioning does not blow cold air anymore, and during acceleration it blows hot air.

The antenna had to be replaced.

The transmission also had to be fixed.

The parking brake needed to have its cables replaced.

The rear suspension bushings needed to be replaced. The springs and shocks needed to be replaced.

All these things are somewhat expected for a car as old as this one.

General Comments:

I love this car due to its aerodynamic design. I also enjoy the exclusivity of having one of the few Z-31s that are in great shape. As a friend of mine, who used to own a 86 turbo tells me, once these cars start to go bad they just keep on racking up the problems. So if you have the money then get the car; if you don't you may want to think about how much you will want to spend on the car. All in all, I am still proud to call the car my own.

Faults:

The only problem I have with the car is that it needs a new coat of paint. And the radio doesn't work and that's about it.

Some other things too, but that's because the owner who had it never changed anything on it. Can't complain, though I paid 600.00 dollars for it.

General Comments:

The car, even though it has those little problems, is fast as hell!! I've gone down 95 south heading to N.Y.C at over 110 and that's without overdrive. The ride at that speed is smooth, the car hugs the road and turns on dime. No shaking or rattling of the steering wheel or the car itself.

Comfortable to drive especially in the summer with the top off!!

The brake power is quick as hell.

Faults:

Idle sensor.

General Comments:

I bought this car in 1998 from the original owner for $2800.00. She is in mint condition and has been completely reliable. The drivers seat is more comfortable than my livingroom recliner! I would recommend this model highly. My only complaint is it's rather weak air conditioning (a problem that plagues most Z's)
