Garage find in late 2010. A grand touring automobile in every sense of the word.

AT, CC, PW, PDL, Bose stereo, climate control a/c, optional metallic paint, optional driver's side air bag.  As found had 7 yr old gas in it.  Fuel system completely disassembled, two injectors replaced.  Has been driven only 4k miles since found - once on a 500 mile road trip, and several times on local cruises and to car shows.  Has new HP tires with 3k miles on them. Since major fuel system refurbishing, has run Amzoil synthetic only.  All other fluids drained and replaced in 2012. It gets about 22-24 mpg at any reasonable speed, but will do unreasonable speeds. All engine seals intact - no leaks. All equipment works.

All body panels are straight, no rust anywhere, no parking lot dings anywhere, no curb rash on the wheels. The vinyl under the T-tops and on the pull-out cover for the luggage compartment is as new.  All rubber body seals are intact.  The single mechanical modification was to replace the factory air intake with a Stillen unit, which freed up engine breathing and improved mileage and performance.  The original is intact and with the car.

 One small interior blemish -- 1.6" on the driver's seat where a metal buckle on the first owner's jacket slightly scored the leather surface. A small 4" x 8" area at the very bottom of the LF quarter panel took a glancing rock in the ChipGuard.  That area has now been re-done, and the match now looks perfect. Otherwise mint. Always garaged every day of its life.  

This was $38,000 new in 1991.  All original documentation and records are intact.  It was driven to one car show and took a first in class in Oriental Cars against some nicely turned-out competition.  The 3 oz sterling silver medal from that show will go with the car. All keys, including the original titanium key ($400 to replace) are included.  Several books, pamphlets etc from the Z32 series go with the car. Dash and car cover included.

My wife feels  the car is "too nice to drive" and feels that driving it is somewhat intimidating because "something might happen to it, and I'd feel terrible."  She's right -- it is that nice. On a sunshiny day, it even smells new!  I let this go Very reluctantly, but there's no sense in having it if my wife isn't comfortable driving it more than she does.
