I had a 280ZX in high school, and a Fairlady (240Z) when I was stationed at Misawa AB, Japan.

Cool I miss my Hot Rod

Currently I own a 260, the one on the "White Finishers" thread.

And I owned a wonderful, fast, loud, extremely clean 240. SOLD!
I miss it a lot.

Here's the link, when it was for sale. Words do this car no justice:

I had a '72 240 and had a 350 V8 dropped in after about a year of owning it (it was 8 years old at that point). I actually totaled it in Arlington, TX (Wesman's home town).

Default 240Z and 350Z owner!

I am the proud owner of original silver Zs. My 1972 240Z is refinished in Sikken Audi silver, which is a bit brighter than my Chrome Silver 350Z. Oddly enough, I took delivery of each Z car from a Datsun/Nissan dealer 30 years and 3 months apart!

I had a super clean silver '73 240 when I was in high screwall. It was my first car and I had it for four years and then I totalled it. The only real mod I had on it was a 411 posi rear end. I bought a '72 240 with the insurance money. One day i was at the wrecking yard looking for parts and I saw my silver Z there. I looked under it and the posi rear end was still in there. I bought it for dirt cheap and put it my '72. That Z is now in my sisters huge back yard rusting away.

You had a Z32.

Z31 = 84 to 89 300ZX
Z32 = 90 to 96 300ZX

I'm thinking of getting a 260 or 280 and having a" fix up" project vehicle, this is of course after getting the beast going ...probably in a couple of years

Have you found the auto TT to be faster than the manual TT's?

Default Had a 1990

My 1st Zcar was a 1990 300ZX NA 5MT. I absolutely loved the car and would prefer to ride it to almost anything else. I now have a 350Z touring with the 6MT. It is IMHO a far superior car in most areas. One area in which the '90 was superior was the storage in the hatch area. Otherwise the '03 is the better car.
One Man's Opinion!
