The odometer was replaced by the last owner so the mileage is incorrect, but as a guess the car probably had over 125,000 miles on it total.
The car is not the fastest car out there by far, however it is a joy to drive.
The handling improved dramatically after the installation of new gas shocks and struts.
With the size tires that come on this car make it handle the curves like a champ.
The small size makes it fun in traffic.
It is quick and nimble.
Will provide a small kick in the pants upon acceleration when pushed.
The 3.0 liter V6 engine makes nominal power, but is enough to provide me with the thrill of driving.
The little ZX also has enough power let me throw a few doughnuts in parking lots when the time comes.
The driver seat has many ways to change the comfort of the ride, much like a modern luxury car, the only downside is that is is all manually changed. Such as the front of the seat is an air bag that is comfortable, but must be inflated with a small hand pump.
I agree. I compare my Z to riding a motorcycle! I think the weather has to be nice, when the t-tops come off and the radio gets just past comfortable, it's time to kick back and cruise. 25 mpg. Only room for two people. Pull over and wait for the snow plows to clear the road - wait for the cloud burst to pass - and enjoy the company of two. Otherwise you can fishtail, and spin completely out of control - and make my surviving Z just a little bit more rare as you wrap yours around a tree! If you see a "cherry" Z in your local want ads and you spend $2k or less - it will be the best fun money you'll ever spend!
