You don't get better documentation of an original owner car than that. And it is important on this car, as it is likely the lowest actual mileage, all original 280ZX 2 seater Turbo available today. This is a museum quality car with all numbers matching and only on it's second set of tires since new. Everything works as it should including the digital clock, A/C, heat, power windows, remote mirrors, radio/cassette, power antenna, all lights inside and out, horn, signals, cruise control, door buzzers, power steering, power brakes, etc. Totally loaded car with every option available for 81 including leather. Seats are absolutely amazing condition. Passenger seat has only been sat in a handful of times! Still smells new. All storage compartments (5 including glove box)are clean and have been unused.

The owners son reports the TTops have never been off the car. Original TTop covers, bra, and floor mats all included. .....and, it runs amazing! You will be blown away when the Turbo kicks in. Hard to believe this car was this fast in 1981. A rocket ship. No leaks, squeaks, smoking or issues of any kind. Automatic shifts smooth and confident. Brakes feel new, and Fuel injection delivers smooth, powerful acceleration. This is one of those cars that you really can't say enough about...and one of those opportunities you can't pass up. To call it a holy grail is appropriate, but it's still so much more...really a '1 of kind' in this condition, with these miles, with this provenance, in this amazing color combo of #805 White over Red. Treat yourself today to this near flawless slice of 1981 heaven. 169 images Here: http://s761.photobucket.com/user/car-reras/library/zx should tell the story even better, but interested, qualified parties are encouraged to contact me with all remaining questions.

Roadkill pits every project car against each other
Sat, 22 Feb 2014The guys behind Motor Trend's monthly Roadkill series have collected nine of their favorite project cars from their videos and pitted them against each other in a battle royale to determine a winner. It's 44 minutes long, but it's completely worth the investment of time.
The cars run the gamut from a 1973 Chevrolet Ramp Truck, a 1975 AMC Pacer and a legitimately impressive 1967 Chevy Camaro, and they are pitted against each other to see which is the fastest around an autocross course. The drivers include Roadkill's two hosts and Motor Trend's Johnny Lieberman and Carlos Lago. It's reminiscent of the best episodes of Top Gear and worth a watch.
So it's the weekend - the perfect time to relax. Grab your preferred beverage, get comfortable and enjoy 44 minutes of some seriously ratty but utterly cool project cars as they are throttled within an inch of their lives (or past it). Scroll down to check out the video.

Fiat contemplating sub-brand to compete with Dacia, Datsun
Tue, 05 Feb 2013You can add Fiat to the admittedly short list of automakers considering a low-cost brand to rival Dacia. The inexpensive Eastern European brand from Renault-Nissan has performed on the balance sheet like a premium model line, and the money the alliance is taking off the table is encouraging other players to deal themselves in. Pretty soon Nissan's Datsun sub-brand will join the Dacia party, going on sale in Russia, Indonesia and India and will claim even more rubles, rupiahs and rupees for the parent company. Volkswagen recently said it will make a decision this year on a budget line for the Chinese market. With the euthanasia of Lancia and plans to move the Fiat brand upmarket, company CEO Sergio Marchionne wonders aloud to Automotive News Europe whether there could be room for a new budget brand underneath Fiat.
We're told that the initiative has been in the idea box for five years and even moved to the stage of name considerations, like Innocenti, but worries about profit kept it from realization. If such a range were to be developed, Marchionne says it couldn't be built in Italy and stay within budget, and the company is "analyzing its manufacturing capacity outside of Europe to see if a low-cost brand is viable."
