1983 Datsun 280ZX Coupe non-Turbo review from North America
"It is a fast fun car at 1/3 of the price that you would pay for a new car with similar performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My car has received:
A new Clutch
New Radiator
New KYB Gas Shocks (i love the shocks, they are a must for performance centerd drivers)
Need New seats
Rear Defrost does not work.
General comments?
This car is a blast to drive! Most people take one look at my car and think that it will not perform well, be unreliable and generally be a bad car. My little brother drives a 1980 modified corvette and he says that my car is a blast to drive. For the price I paid, I got a great looking, fast, reliable classic car, and I'm only making it better. I would recommend this car for ANYONE! It also has quite a bit of storage space, I have fit a lot in my car.
