This is a Nissan 300zx N/A with a 5-speed, in black. I have owned this car for quite some time now and it is finally time to let her go. This is a great summer/weekend car, or a car ready for some track action if you are into that sort of thing. This car is extremely rare to see in this good of shape. Often they have a significant amount of mileage on them, or they have been tuned to a point where they cannot function properly. This car has been tuned, lightly, mostly the suspension. The car drives like a dream. The reason I got rid of the 300 was because I bought a 350z; but I have to say, the 300zx's handling is far far superior. Its predicable and grippy. It really is an absolute blast to drive

One of the best things about the car is the rarity. You never see the car anymore, and for that reason, it turns heads. People constantly stop and ask about the car, mostly because they have never seen one before, and because it truly is one of the most beautiful cars Nissan and Datsun every made. The body lines are timeless, and unlike other 90's cars, its looks have not gone out of style. With the car comes Nissan 350z Touring wheels, and the original premium alloys. 

The car has 113,555 miles on it and has never seen winter. 


Body:
Overall:
The body is in good shape for its age, however it does have some rust as I do live in New England (Vermont). Again, it has never seen winter, however there is some rust in the undercarriage and in the wheel well of the passenger side. I have had this looked at by a certified master body-technician and he has stated that it is completely treatable. As far as the paint goes, there is some minor hazing in the paint (I'm sure a professional buff can take it out) and some small surface scratches on the doors. The front end of the car has been repainted by the same body-tech.

Goodies:
-Stillen front lip
-Tinted Corners
-350z touring wheels!

Mechanical:

A couple of things that do not work:
E-Brake: This is a insanely common occurrence for this car. You probably won't find a Z with a functioning E-Brake. Many of them rip, and they rarely are replaced. I do, however, have the replacement E-Brake cables which will be included with the car.
Window: The drivers side window was replaced as the car was broken into before I had come to own the car (or may have just broken, I'm not entirely sure, I just know because I found the glass in the carpet). With that being said the window is there, and works, but doesn't work quite right. I've had it looked at half-a-dozen times and no one seems to know how to get it functioning just right.
Air-conditioning: it works; but the freon needs to be replaced. I have not replaced it myself... well, because I just take the T-Tops off. Never really needed it! 

Upgrades/Maintenance:
-Transmission has been replaced, as well as the clutch and flywheel, pilot bushings, and starter have as well
-Wiper Motor has been replaced
-Cooling systems and transmission fluid have been flushed; regularly
-Oil has been changed every 3000 miles; come with spare oil pan; Z's have a soft belly pan and are known to get obliterated on a pothole; luckily this has not happened to me
-Alignments have been done as necessary. 

Goodies
-Injen Cold Air Intake
-Tokico Illumina Shocks
-Eibach Sport Springs, with bump stops
-Stillen Sway Bars
-JWT High Pro Clutch
-Stillen Short Shifter
-Z1 1-Piece aluminum driveshaft
-SPL front upper control arms
-SPL V2 tension rods
-Stainless steel brake lines
-B&B high-flow cat-back exhaust- one of the best exhausts money can buy. It's truly awesome. The link below is my car with the exhaust.

Interior:
Probably the best thing about the car. It's interior really is in great shape. The car comes with its original mats, and it comes with the T-Top leather bags. No rips, tears or stains in the seats, or doors (satin). There is one small burn in the seat. No one has smoked in this car

If you have any questions please feel free to message me. I would give my number but I am a chef and I am at work 90% of the time I am awake. I will get back to you ASAP. Thanks! Happy Bidding!

Recharge Wrap-up: Big Oil fails at renewable fuel, scientists study air with EVs, plug-in Panamera sales

Thu, Jul 10 2014

Big Oil companies help keep renewable fuels out of your tank, a new report shows. No surprise there, right? The Renewable Fuels Association published a report card grading the country's largest retail gasoline chains on fuel offerings like E85 and E15. The report gave failing grades, with less than one percent of stations offering E15 or E85, to "Big Five" companies Exxon, BP, ConocoPhillips, Chevron and Shell, among other oil company and convenience/grocery store brands. The only major oil companies that didn't get an "F" were Valero (D), Cenex (B), and Marathon (A-). The eight companies that scored an A+ had at least 25 percent of their stations offering E85 or E15.

Beginning July 4, University of Leicester researchers began driving electric vehicles kitted out with special sensors to monitor air quality throughout the city (similar to how California does it). Now their emissions-free daily driving duties double as data collection for their studies. "By monitoring air quality as a seamless part of our daily transport system, we are providing a cost-effective way to help inform future policy and operational systems," says the University's Dr. Roland Leigh.

"There is no doubt electric cars are the future." – Nissan's Andy Palmer Nissan is exploring the idea of taking its Leaf EV to India, but a lack of charging options is an obstacle. According to Nissan's chief planning officer Andy Palmer, "There is no doubt electric cars are the future. The product is there, what we need is infrastructure. Charging is a big challenge." Though Nissan stopped short of saying it (this time), this could possibly mean working with Mahindra, which said it is open to collaborating with other companies concerning EVs. Learn more in this article from the Hindustan Times and know that India is rolling out a plan to encourage the production and adoption of EVs. The National Electric Mobility Mission Plan will get over $2 billion in funding, and some of that will go toward creating a charging infrastructure (you hear that, Nissan?). This is good news for EV manufacturers, India's economy and people who enjoy breathing clean air.

Ghosn predicts autonomous cars on the roads by 2018, if laws allow

Thu, 05 Jun 2014

Things appear to be going well inside Nissan's autonomous vehicle development program. Until now, the automaker believed that self-driving cars would be ready for major markets like the US by 2020. However, Renault-Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn is now speeding up that prediction to 2018 in some places, assuming that local laws are ready to accept the computer-controlled vehicles.
"The problem isn't technology, it's legislation, and the whole question of responsibility that goes with these cars moving around," said Ghosn in a speech in France recorded by Reuters. He predicted that the first sales could begin in France, Japan and the US by 2018 and expand elsewhere in 2020.
The alliance has been among the forefront of automakers working on self-driving cars. Nissan has an autonomous Leaf (pictured above) test car that is licensed to drive on Japanese roads. Renault showed off an version of its Zoe EV earlier this year called the Next Two, that could pilot itself at speeds up to 18 miles per hour, and that the company predicted would be ready by 2020.

Trucks, SUVs drive U.S. October new vehicle sales

Wed, Nov 1 2017

DETROIT — Major automakers posted mixed U.S. new vehicle sales in October on Wednesday, though America's love affair with high-margin pickup trucks and SUVs remained in full bloom as larger, pricier vehicles fared better than passenger cars. Auto industry publication WardsAuto put the seasonally-adjusted annualized rate (SAAR) for light vehicle sales in October at a robust level of 18 million units. But after a long boom cycle, carmakers are still ill-prepared for the slight decline in sales anticipated for full-year 2017 and have taken too few steps to trim production, said Doug Mehl, a partner in consultancy A.T. Kearney's automotive practice. "When you make a new vehicle, you have volume assumptions tagged to it, and who wants to be the guy who says, 'I'm going to make less of this really cool model'?" Mehl said. "But eventually the market is the reality, and it's going to force companies one way or other here." General Motors GM reported a sales drop of 2.2 percent for the month, with consumer sales down 6.6 percent. But sales of high-margin pickup trucks, sport utility vehicles and crossovers all rose. GM also cut its inventory of unsold vehicles — a source of concern for the market — slightly. The automaker has worked to reduce its volume of excess inventory, including through significant production shutdowns in the third quarter. GM had said its inventory would rise in October. "We are heading into the fourth quarter with good momentum, thanks to a strong U.S. economy and very strong pickup and crossover sales," said Kurt McNeil, GM vice president for U.S. sales operations. GM slightly reduced consumer discounts as a percentage of average transaction prices to 13.5 percent, from 13.7 percent in the third quarter. Industry experts believe consumer discounts above 10 percent of the average transaction price are unhealthy as they erode resale values and are unsustainable in the long term. Consultants J.D. Power and LMC said last week that based on preliminary October sales numbers, discounts have exceeded 10 percent in 15 of the past 16 months. Ford The U.S. auto industry posted record sales of 17.55 million vehicles in 2016. New sales received a strong boost in September as consumers replaced vehicles damaged in southeast Texas by Hurricane Harvey the previous month. Full-year 2017 sales are expected to be slightly lower than 2016.
