This is not your average low mileage 300 ZX. It is in excellent condition with 72,000 original miles, which has been meticulously maintained,garage kept, and covered.  All service done to this vehicle since purchased brand new was done at a NISSAN dealership and all paper receipts convey.   It is a non smoker car and still has new car smell!  This truly is an unmolested all original 1991 300ZX with the only modification being an upgraded stereo system, wiring system, and dynamat throughout.  Replaced Crank Sensor 3 years ago.

As evidenced by the original Window Sticker, this 1991 300ZX 2+2 COUPE came finished in color (326) Super White on Charcoal Leather. Features included: 3.0 Liter 24 Valve 222 HP V-6 engine; 5 Speed Manual Transmission; Speed-Sensitive Power Steering; 4 Wheel Vented Power Disc Brakes; Anti-Lock Braking System; 4-WHL Independent multi-link suspension dual exhaust system; T-Bar Roof with Glass Panels;  Integrated Fog Lights; Rear Window Wiper/Washer; Power Adjustable Driver's Seat; Automatic Temp Control System; Power Remote Heated Mirrors; Power Windows; Power Door Locks; Theft Deterrent System;  Automatic Power Antenna; Leather Package including Leather Seating Surfaces, leather wrapped Steering Wheel, leather shifter knob, and leather handbrake; Tachometer/Oil Pressure/Temperature Gauge Package. 

Options on this Z include: Leather Package-Leather Seating Surfaces, Power Driver's Seat & Driver's Side Airbag. The total sticker on this loaded 300ZX 2+2  was $33,570.00. 

This car has an all JL Audio sound system including an Alpine CDA-9855 head unit (with remote control), a pair of XR650-CSi speakers in the front doors, a pair of XR650CXi in the rear, and a set of JL tweeters.  It also has a Stealth Box subwoofer with a 500/5 amp powering the whole system mounted inside a custom enclosre in the spare tire well.  It includes a powered IPOD connection in the center console (IPOD NOT INCLUDED).  The car has DYNAMAT installed throughout as well as upgraded speaker wiring.  The cost of this installation was well over $5000. 

A VIPER 2-way Responder security system has been installed.  The display on the remote confirms all commands - virtually instantly - with easy to understand icons and text.  It has a second regular remote as well.

Used as a  weekend driver, this 300ZX has been driven an average of 3,130 miles per year since it was brought home from dealer in 1991. 

Stored in a garage covered, this Z looks just as good as it did the first day! All trim, moldings and details are in factory condition. All body panels are original, and the original white paint is in great condition.   All of the glass, lenses, lamps and bezels are original, and in new condition.  The rock guard below the trim line has been repainted due to a yellowing discoloration.  The car windows have been tinted to protect the interior.

All four original 16" aluminum alloy wheels with no road rash. 

The engine compartment is 100% original except for the battery.  The car comes with the original spare tire, jack & tool set, and headlight aiming kit. The spare tire and headlight aiming kit were removed to allow for a stealth stereo installation.

The charcoal leather interior is absolutely stunning, with no rips or tears. The seats, door panels, carpeting and dash are all in perfect condition.  The car also includes 2 sets of floor mats!  One is the set of 4 original OEM Nissan floor mats with Z logo as well as 4 brand new OEM in the box floor mats.  The car cover is in great condition (interior use only).  It is a Evolution 4 (technalon material) purchased from Covercraft and includes a storage bag and lock.

In short, this is an extremely desirable, investment grade collector quality 300ZX and it speaks for itself. As you may know, finding a low mileage unmolested 300ZX is getting harder with each passing year, and the generation that loves these cars would identify this Z as a perfect piece for their collection.  This is a fine example of an early unmodified 90s 300Z car, with all the right stuff. 

Please note that there is a blemish on the left quarter panel in front of the fuel filler door that has been touched up with Nissan touch up paint as well as a slight indentation behind the drivers door.  Both are quite small and almost unnoticeable.  The car was also involved in a minor accident in which it spun out on gravel into curbing damaging the left rear wheel.  The wheel was reconditioned and the lower suspension arm was replaced.  None of the body trim was affected, and we have pictures of the vehicle prior to being repaired.  Also, the timing belt has been replaced twice, but is recommended for another replacement due to age (not mileage).  Despite this you will not be disappointed for a car that is 23 years old. 


Included with the sale are the following:

*Original Window Sticker

*3 original keys (Titanium, Black Spare, Red Valet)

*HeatShield brand Solar Window Shade

*Evolution 4 Car Cover

*Original Owners Manual, 2 brochures (1992 and 1994)

2020 Chevy Corvette Stingray vs the world: How it compares on paper

Mon, Jul 22 2019

The 2020 Chevy Corvette Stingray in its base form offers an astonishing amount of performance for the money. In fact, so impressive is the car's spec sheet that the Corvette kind of exists in two different competitive sets: one of cars priced similarly, and another with cars of similar performance and reputation. To get a feel for how it handles each of these segments, we've compiled specifications for those two sets of players. You can find the first set below, which looks at cars of roughly the same price point. Following that is a bit of analysis, and then there's a chart of cars with similar performance and reputation. And that chart will also have some analysis. Though final pricing for the Corvette hasn't been announced yet, we know the Corvette will start at less than $60,000. And as far as pricing goes, its closest competitor is the Porsche 718 Cayman, which also starts at just under $60,000. Both are mid-engined and rear-drive, but the Corvette offers an extra 195 horsepower and 190 pound-feet of torque. The Cayman does boast a curb weight of right around 3,000 pounds, so it weighs a few hundred pounds less than the Corvette, but it's likely not enough to make up for the power deficit. The Corvette's sub-3.0-second 0-60 time bears this out against the Cayman's best 4.5-second run. Impressively, though, the Cayman has more cargo space than the Corvette in a package that's nearly 10 inches shorter. The Cayman also still offers a manual option for those that prefer self-shifting. The 2020 Toyota Supra is on the cheap end of this sports car class, just crossing $50,000. It also boasts more power than the Cayman, though it's still down by 160 ponies and 105 pound-feet of torque to the C8. It's also about as roomy as the Corvette, despite being about the same size as the Cayman. Cargo space is a bit tighter. Its driving characteristics will likely differ, too as the Supra sits on a front-engine platform. It might even feel closer to a C7 Corvette in some ways. The other mid-engine entry in this price range is the 2019 Alfa Romeo 4C Spider. Its small 1.7-liter turbo inline-4 only makes 237 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, but it's also far and away the lightest of this group at 2,487 pounds. That's roughly 1,000 pounds lighter than the Corvette. It isn't as fast as the Corvette in a straight line, but that lightness surely pays dividends in cornering and braking.

'Gran Turismo' movie trailer: No surprises, but more cars onscreen is a good thing

Tue, May 2 2023

More movies about cars and racing is always a good thing in our book. The first trailer for the "Gran Turismo" movie dropped today, and while it focuses a lot on the gaming backstory, it looks like there will be a decent amount of actual wheel-to-wheel action as well. The movie is, of course, based on the hugely popular PlayStation series of video games. Now in its seventh installation, it revolutionized the racing game world with its massive library of playable cars, digitization of real tracks, and sound effects recorded from actual exhaust notes. Unlike other recent video games that have been adapted into blockbuster movies or TV shows with actual depth, "Gran Turismo" the game doesn't have a plot.  This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. The movie follows the real-life story of Jann Mardenborough, a British "Gran Turismo" player who in 2011 became the youngest winner of the Nissan GT Academy. The program funnels gamers into real driver's seats, and Mardenborough beat out 90,000 global contestants. He's gone on to compete in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the British GT Championships, and Formula E.  In the trailer we see what is likely a heavily dramatized version of the events. Mardenborough (Archie Madekwe) faces skeptical parents, skeptical driving instructor Jack Salter (David Harbour of "Stranger Things''), and a skeptical rival who doesn't believe gamers can really race (Josha Stradowski). About the only one who does believe in him is Danny Moore (Orlando Bloom), a marketing exec based on GT Academy head honcho Darren Cox. An obligatory love story is also wedged in there.  Since the real GT Academy was sponsored by Nissan, when Mardenborough graduates to real cars we see plenty of R35 GT-Rs, a 370Z NISMO, and a Ligier-Nissan LMP racer. Mardenborough's rival's car is perfectly cast as a chrome gold-wrapped Lamborghini Huracan. Background cars include an Audi R8, Porsche 911, Ferrari 458, and more. Surprisingly, there's no new Nissan Z, even though it seems like it would be the perfect car to include in a movie like this. The trailer reveals almost entirely how Mardenborough will overcome the odds, not that the end would have taken a genius to guess. At the same time, motor racing is an inaccessible sport for the average consumer.
