Why would you have so many 300s? If I had that many Zs I'd have one of each kind.

The 300zx was an awesome car. In 1993. It would be great to have one, but there are other cars I'd want - not however many Z32s he has.
I'm guessing some of those are his friends that came over for a photoshoot. |
You could put that car out today and just refresh the interior and it would still be one of the nicest looking cars put out today.

Ah my first car was a Silver 1990 300zx. I miss it dearly. I love the T-Tops and it was a lot of fun to drive. I mean it was so ahead of its time in 1990! To this day, it still looks modern.
In regards to that picture. I think that building is actually a mechanics shop (but i could be wrong) |
The Z32 is the best Z, so far, imho. Nissan took the Z32 very seriously when they released it. I read somewhere, that Nissan's inspiration was primarily from the Porsche 928. The interior, dashboard, and overall silhouette do have a resemblance...There were many unprecedented characteristics about it such as: HICAS steering, twin-turbo, 300 hp (big league HP back in '89 that was actually more than the C4 Vette that year)...and a price that took it out of the "cheaper alternative to the Corvette, but about the same as a Stang or Camaro" category thereby putting it in the same class as the Vette C4. Plus, it spurred the other Japanese makers to release their twin-turbo machines FD3S, 3000/Stealth VR4, MKIV Supra, MR2 turbo, NSX, etc. It was the heyday of Japanese supercars then.
I bought a Z32 NA back in '04, but the engine was shot because when you got on it, it was as slow as my Accord. It had about 120K miles on it. I only bought it for $2,500 and I was gonna do the VG30DETT swap. But those swaps were kinda "if'y" back then and I didn't want to have a car lying around for a year or longer in my garage. I ended up selling it for what I bought it for after only owning it for a couple months. |

Nice garage shot OP. That's a lot of Z's. We should never try to get an explanation but rather understand that there was so much love for the Z. Just never could get enough of it eh.
Reminded me of my brother's 1992 TT300ZX TTop and it was white. Sad news is it was flattened by his apartment during the Northridge quake two years later. Pretty much inspired me to get one someday..........wow 20 years after. |

My question is would the general public say the same about the Z34 20 to 30 years from now? Think about it..... Quote:
Not much difference with our Z34's when Nissan was gunning for the Cayman's. |
Ive seen that pic before, my guess is that its just a photo shoot of owners that got together.
|
Chris Karl maybe? Looks familiar

i had a '90 300TT for about a year and loved it, blew the engine did a jdm swap , bought one on a crapshoot and it was crap, sold the car after blowing the second engine. Insanely fun car- definitely want to own another one at some point
|
:eek: What a house
|
Great collection and a true classic.
That said, too expensive and plagued with reliability issues as I recall -- it killed the Z until the 350 came out. I'm happy with the current direction the Z has taken (although I was never a huge fan of the last gen...). Here's to hoping Nissan keeps the Z fast, fun, nimble, and affordable. |
