1975 Datsun 280Z review from North America
"Best car made in the 70's"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Wire broke off temp sensor.
General comments?
Very good car. Not to big on power, but handles great and can keep up with older Mustangs and the import crowd's cars. It needed a V8 so that's what I'm doing to it.
It's a sports car so it's not going to ride like a Cadillac.
Very good first car.
