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)

Nissan Leaf battery cells put through torture test, live to charge again

Sun, Mar 2 2014

One minor chink in the armor of the Tesla Model S is that a small number have caught fire, once their battery packs were penetrated. Nissan Leaf drivers, however, might just be able to weather such an event without an ensuing CarBQ. Our evidence for such a claim? A video that has surfaced of cells from a Leaf pack undergoing a battery of torture tests (pun somewhat-ashamedly intended). Shared by folks at the Hybrid Auto Center in Las Vegas – who offer for sale, among other things, used Leaf lithium battery modules – the footage shows salvaged cells being brutally assaulted with a screwdriver, and later, a propane torch. Granted, these tests are not the same thing as flinging a piece of metal into a working pack at 70 miles per hour, but they do claim to show that a puncture does not always equal a fire. Oh, and don't try this at home. When pierced through by the flat head tool, there is no explosion or eruption of flame. Instead, a rather modest wisp of smoke shyly emerges as the electrolyte next to the shorted area of the fully-charged foil pouch reacts with the influx of oxygen. Again and again, the blade descends, until the cell is riddled with holes. No fire. Amazingly, when connected with a voltmeter afterward there are still plenty of signs of life, and when it is charged and discharged (off-camera), it reportedly suffers only a slight loss of charge capacity. The video goes on to show another cell attacked with open flame with similar results. While the demonstration is, perhaps, somewhat crude, the message it sends is loud and clear: lithium batteries can be safe and rather robust, despite some freak accidents.

The cars and trucks of 'Transformers: Rise of the Beasts'

Wed, Jun 7 2023

The latest spectacle in the Transformers franchise is about to hit the theaters. The final trailer was released, giving us peeks at what appears to be a pretty boilerplate story about the end of the world. There's some kind of ancient interplanetary war brewing and it's up to some teenagers to sort it out with the help of their robot buddies. But this is Autoblog, so we're not even going to try to suss out a plot so thin it won't hold a spittle globule's worth of water. We'll just go over the cars. Transformers: Rise of the Beasts | Official Final Trailer (2023 Movie) Porsche 911 Carrera RS 3.8: Mirage So far the star of the film, car-wise, looks to be a blue-on-silver 964 Porsche named Mirage that is voiced by Pete Davidson. It's been the most promoted of the movie cars, even more so than formerly central characters like Bumblebee and Optimus Prime. Except, this isn't just any ordinary 911; it's a Carrera RS 3.8, a European-exclusive model of which Porsche only built 55 units. As the name implies, it came with a bored-out M64 turbo flat-six as opposed to the 964 Turbo's 3.6. It wore the Turbo's wide-body badonk with a bi-level rear wing, but Porsche reportedly stripped out 570 pounds' worth of weight despite embiggening key performance parts like brakes and wheels. Fortunately, no actual RS 3.8s were used in the movie. Producers instead built five cars for different purposes — shooting closeups of actors, jumps, the obligatory driving backwards real fast — out of lesser 911s. However, the sound department did record the engine note of an actual RS 3.8 for accuracy, as the higher crank speeds of the 3.8 have a distinctive sound.  In the original 1984 Transformers lineup Mirage was a Ligier JS11 Formula 1 car, complete with faux Gitanes cigarette branding (on a children's toy!). An F1 racer would raise an eyebrow on the streets, so it made sense to update to a street-legal sports car. If you're wondering why this Porsche isn't the character Jazz, whose original vehicle mode was an ultra-cool Martini-liveried Porsche 935, well, he was remade into a Pontiac Solstice voiced by Darius McCrary during the GM product placement rewrite in 2007's Transformers reboot, then unceremoniously killed. 1977 Chevrolet Camaro: Bumblebee Formerly the franchise star, Bumblebee gets far less screen time in the trailers. He's still a Camaro, but because Transformers: Rise of the Beasts takes place in 1994 he's not a fith-gen.

Recharge Wrap-up: Indianapolis to switch 425 fleet vehicles to EVs, Chevy Corvette provides bat habitats

Tue, Nov 4 2014

Indianapolis will deploy 425 battery electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles as part of its municipal fleet by 2016. The fleet will include such cars as the Nissan Leaf, Chevrolet Volt and Ford Fusion Energi. The city will also reduce its overall fleet by 100 vehicles. In all, the revised group - called the "Freedom Fleet" - will save $8.7 million and 2.2 million gallons of gasoline over 10 years. Read more at Hybrid Cars. EVs with longer range would make vehicle-to-home and vehicle-to-grid energy management systems more practical for the US. The idea of using EVs as energy storage for emergencies or times of high grid demand is currently being tested in Japan with Nissan's Leaf-to-Home system. The US is also interested in such capabilities, but the higher average energy use of American households would make larger batteries in EVs ideal for grid storage applications.

The factory, when constructed, will have a capacity of producing batteries for 100,000 cars per year according to the Korean company. The plant will supply batteries for Chinese automakers such as SAIC and Qoros. Construction is expected to be finished by the end of 2015 and LG Chem expects revenue of more than $933 million by 2020. Read more in the press release below. General Motors is using adhesive used in the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray to create habitat for threatened bat species. Artificial bat caves could help alleviate white-nose fungus that leads to diminished bat populations. Leftover adhesive is used to create stalactites in the artificial caves, allowing them more structure to hang from. GM has also provided Volt battery covers to create nesting habitats for bats, which eat harmful insects and help pollinate plants. See the videos and read more in the press release below.
