1991 Nissan 300ZX Coupe 2 Seater review from North America

All of the few things that have needed replacement are what I consider general maintainence.

The oil pressure sensor, temperature sensor, and radiator overflow needed replacing. The total cost of those items was under $150.00.

The tension rods also showed heavy wear and were replaced as well as some coolant system hoses. I went aftermarket and do not have the costs for those, but it would be $250-$350 installed. The motor is from a different model and only has 60,000 miles so the turbos and injectors aren't applicable to the chassis mileage. The previous owner did have to rebuild the turbos for an unknown reason, which was over $2,000.

Within reason, the car is fast as any car made today on the straights or turns. Yet it is a decade older.

One of the most beautiful cars ever constructed, and it gets attention from the right people every day.

Very high performance potential. You can reach 400 rear wheel horsepower with about $1,800 on a twin turbo model if you install the parts yourself, and up to 600 rear wheel horsepower on the stock motor.

Potentially one of the worst financial decisions you can make. Only about 17 mpg and you can dump $10,000 easily into the car on maintenance if you don't know what you are doing.

Also one of the greatest buys in history. I bought my car cash for under 8,000, added about $1200 in performance modifications, and can go 180 miles per hour if I got the urge without much trouble.

Do not buy a 300zx without service records, especially of the 60k interval maintenances which are crucial to the motor's life and about $1,000.

Lastly, if you decide to buy one of these rare jewels, take good care of it and it will take good care of you! These are very reliable super cars if you do the maintenance at the correct intervals.
