I have, but it'll be a toy I probably end up keeping for a long time. I've looked around at all the new stuff out there and right now, an old car to restore/build is just more appealing to me and how I'd rather spend my money. New cars are nice and flashy for a few years, then it gets boring and is forgotten, especially once a new gen comes out. I want something that is classic. Think 240z/510. I think the newest I'll go is an MKIV Supra. Yeah it won't be the fastest or have the tech gadgets, but that's ok with me.

I would love to get my hands on a cheap, rust free 240 that I can work on.

Agree. So hard to find around here. I've been casually looking for years, I've always loved the 240 and the 510.

I think you would have to find one somewhere down south in non humid area. Arizona?

West coast for sure. Last time I was in CA, I found a beautiful '71 240z for sale.

Would love to have this pair like Gene

My first car was a base model '98 Mitsubishi 3000GT. I've always had dreams of picking up a VR-4 and building it into a rocket, but even if I could find something that wasn't molested I still don't think I could bring myself to buy a 16+ year old car and not blow it up in frustration.

Also keep in mind the VR-4 had 4 wheel drive, and 4-wheel steering, which is a beeyoch to keep aligned and functioning.

Second... the REGULAR 3000 GT weighs 3800. The VR-4 with all wheel drive is prolly more. IMHO... start with a more nimble platform.

2c :tiphat:

mx-5 Miata

90s sure was the era for Japanese sports cars. Didn't the 300zx tt have 4wheel steering as well? These cars were ahead of their times

Not sure about the 300, but Skyline GTR did for sure.

My love for 90s Japanese sports car is the reason I ended up with the Z. It seems like it's one of the last true Japanese sports cars left. You could argue the EVO/STI, but the rally-esque thing makes me feel like they don't count and the BRZ/FRS wasn't even out yet to consider.

This getting older sh*t is for the birds.

I mean, i had a migraine last night. My spine decided to stop moving my legs. And you all know about the crazy upstairs :p

It appears sitting in a car for an hour + work for 9 hours is f-ing with my back quite a bit.

owwwwwww

That's crazy! That doesn't sound right, have to gone to the dr?

Well it's not so much my spine now as it is a pain in my leg now. So it's moved from terrible to just annoying. Stay tuned...

:wtf2:

I refuse to get old! Diet+Exercise= less pain and more fun! :p

Matter of fact, the 300ZX TT was available with the HICAS, where the rear wheels steered just a bit....oh the memories of my 91 300z, so much fun.

D D D D Dancin in the darrrrrrrk.
