1985 Nissan 300ZX review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced the clutch at 135,000 miles.
Air conditioning needs recharging.
Rear right port window was resealed. Which I was able to do myself, cheap.
Little things were replaced. For example, tires, distributor cap, rotor, spark plugs, ignition wires, battery, and all filters.
Windows had to be tinted from light carpet damage in the rear compartment of the vehicle from the heat.
General comments?
These cars are one of the best cars I've ever owned, and driven. They are by far one of the fastest, and most reliable also. If they have been taken care of and are continued to be taken care of they will last a very long time, as will their performance. I love the body style, and the interior styling also. Nissan did a great job with these cars. In my personal opinion, if you are able to get a hold of one of these cars, or already have one, in good condition, I would recommend keeping it. They are great cars to either restore or just to have.
