This is my third 300zx. I bought this car from a one owner... the car has 346,000 miles on the orginial engince and transmission... change the fluids every 15,000 miles and it will last... stay with orginial nissan parts and I have tried brake rotors from other companies and they just don;t work. I am looking forward to turning 500,000 miles on this vehicle... oh yea...still have the orginial paint on the car... I have been offered $3000.00 for it... I will keep it until it fall aparts. Poor gas mileage, but a fun car to drive in the summer... Buy an older 300zx and restore it and your will have fun.
This car is fast!!! I wish I could purchase another one brand new... Best car I have ever purchase.
Poor gas mileage? Mine gets an average of 26.5mpg! Its totally stock!
My only complaint is the gas mileage. I guess it depends how it's driven. I have the turbo model and it goes back and forth to the BART station (I live in the bay area and this is the public transportation) parking lot M-F about 12 miles a day. On weekends it's driven very little. Very little freeway miles. I only get about 16 mpg. I'm at the pump every 2 weeks!
No body will belived that my "Z" was a gift from my boss for my 32nd birthday :-).It's a 1986 with 145,000 miles and she purchased brand new in 1986,everything works in this beauty, lot of power, the silver paint is in a very good shape, and I love the way it handles.I took it to a bodyshop to have the hood and the two front fenders repainted becouse the clearcoat was faded,now looks like brand new.
I have a 86 300zx turbo and have a problem with the speedometer and gas gauge and was wanting to know if anyone else had any similar problems with their 300, LET ME KNOW.
I am the second owner of a 1986 300zx 2+2 non turbo. I LOVE IT! Purchased it in 1997. No major problems. Original paint job is goo (would like to redo). Need tune up. The clutch changed twice during the life of this car. First owner female as well. Well taken care of. Praying about investing in it to give it a tune up. Much like humans getting a physical.
I don't want to sell, but if the right caring person appear... I'll consider.
