looks good, enjoy it. i think that the 5th bow motor tends to go out in convertibles, so that might be something later on you will encounter

Welcome and my only advise is to pay to have a professional Nissan tech assess this Z. Do the full assessment, including a leakdown test, before you take delivery. It'll be well worth the $200 (or so) and will give you a better idea on what needs to be done if you decide to take delivery.

i took the car for a test drive today and besides the alignment being a little off it drove good, gonna have to get used to the clutch!! wow.. i just found out one of my buddies just went back to work for nissan, he worked for them for 15 years and retired but he should definitiley be able to diagnose my car...thanks for the info..

after looking at a lot of pics it doesnt seem like the orange color is too popular around here, lol..
