6k cnd is too much if its a non-turbo. non-turbo 300zx's aren't that fast but you can always boost them and throw on some bolt-on's and have a really fast car.

Try to get a better price on it, I've always loved the styling of the last gen ZX it's a timeless design. But for some reason I can't bring myself to buy a non-turbo 300ZX, same goes for the Supra and 3000GT even if it's a really good deal. It's kinda like buying a V6 Camaro or Mustang.

there's just something about owning a Twin Turbo Z or Supra.

ya i am just afraid of the repairs that comes with the twin turbos i always had the feeling that the normal v6 300zx is pretty reliable, i dunno i am not really too keen on the performance i just wanted more for looks, anyways i'll go and check it out tommorow, the auction allows u to start the car and check it out one day before the actually bidding begins

my cousin had a non turbo model. The repairs were still pretty exensive and it needed repaired quite often. Also I drove it a few times and I was VERY disapointed with the power.

The NA versions aren't at all impressive. The cars are just too heavy.

nevermind i went to the auction today and the car had over 300,000km so no thanx. however i did see a 91 acura legend coupe with 159000km which is pretty low, it was in pretty good shape the guy said it might need a new cv joint on the driver side. i love the look of those legend coupes i am gona go tommorwo and see if i can pick it up for cheap.

if any of you guys have car fax right now and don't mind running a check for me

yeah, if the legend is cheap that would be nice. I love the coupes...is it a 5 or 6sp? That would be perfect.

4 speed auto the 6 speed ones are rare as hell i highly doubt it'll end up in an auction. auto could be nice though since my tsx is 6spd, anyone know how expensive a legend is to maintain?
