My mechanic just described this car as the cleanest 280Z in the country. I am the second owner and purchased it in 2008 thru Ebay motors. I am selling it as I am 74 years old and will not drive it as much as I should in the future.

This Z has it all. The 5-speed transmission functions flawlessly as does the factory air-conditioning. The AM-FM radio works perfectly. The original interior's seats, door panels, dash( no cracks or splits), shift boot are in beautiful condition. The black carpet has some minor sun fading. It is a non-catalytic converter model. The Michelin tires have approximately 4,000 miles on them. The car includes the rear window louvers. The engine is in perfect condition. The engine compartment has the original cosmoline and undercoating and has not been steam cleaned. The car has no rust and has been garaged when not driven. This car has not been wrecked or had any body work done on it. The original paint is in beautiful condition and you will work hard to find a scratch on it. This is a smoke-free car.

I have copies of all service work performed since it's original purchase. Since my purchase I have repaired the air-conditioning which now works perfectly. I had a small oil-leak on my garage floor from the engine and replaced the clutch slave cylinder, oil pan gasket, transmission output seal and rear main seal. The car has no oil leaks now and my garage floor is again spot free. I have also replaced the battery, fuel pump, and miscellaneous hoses. I will be glad to put an interested buyer in touch with my mechanic who was initially trained as a Datsun mechanic and has extensive Z knowledge.

The car includes: original owners manual, service booklet, Datsun 280Z service manual 1978, Haynes and Clymer Shop Manuals, and original window sticker and some misc Z items.

This has all the features you could want in a 280Z. No work or restoration is required, just get in it and drive. I would pick up the buyer at the airport. Check my seller ratings and you will see I have 100% feedback. I have built my reputation on a 100% honest description and work with any customer issues. I would co-operate with an out of state buyer with an independent inspection company of your choosing and expense. Purchase is in U.S. dollars cash in person or Paypal. The final cost does not include shipping or shipping preparation, taxes, title or registration as these costs are the sole responsibility of the buyer. I will provide a bill of sale and clear Nevada title.

Datsun Redi-Go is reborn brand's first concept car [w/video]

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

Nissan's plan for its reborn Datsun sub-brand just got a shot in the arm, as the emerging-market manufacturer has unveiled its first concept car since its resurrection back in 2012. Called the Redi-Go Concept, it looks like a high-riding version of Datsun's recently launched Go hatchback that's been fitted with a few concept car cues (not a bad thing).
The Redi-Go packs LED taillights, Datsun's "D-cut grille" and LED running lights into its Go-inspired body. Funky two-tone 15-inch wheels add a bit of cheek to the overall design, and in our minds look quite good, despite being so small. The ruggedized front and rear bumpers, as well as the sill and wheel arch surrounds add to the Redi-Go's rough-and-tumble aesthetic. We like that Datsun has kept the overall package short, giving the Redi-Go a 92.5-inch wheelbase, rather than creating a lifted version of the upcoming Go+. There are no specific mentions of the Redi-Go's mechanicals, although we'd wager that a production model might share the 1.2-liter engine and five-speed manual found in the standard Go.
While it might be easy to dismiss a concept like the Redi-Go in America, there's no denying its importance to the Indian market, which is decidedly more limited when it comes to available bodystyles. "If we were to make a car like Datsun Redi-Go Concept it would be a segment creator in India, an aspirational car that at the same time is attainable, a car that would be within reach of the first time buyer. This concept shows how serious we are about reinvigorating the market by catering for the needs of a growing class of Indians who have the chance to own a family car that will enable them to enjoy a new sense of independence," said Vincent Cobee, the global head of Datsun.

Nissan IDx 'in the plan' for production, needs support from fans [w/poll]

Wed, 15 Jan 2014

If there's a trend in the auto industry we can firmly get behind, it's the small, light and affordable rear-drive coupe. The positive critical reception to the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ twins has encouraged other manufacturers to look at building their own rear drivers, and even a few to show actual concept cars based on the idea. The Chevrolet Code 130R from 2012 and more recently, the Nissan IDx twins that were first shown at the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show both come to mind, as does the brand-new Kia GT4 Stinger Concept.
Nissan trotted out the IDx Nismo and the IDx Freeflow for another showing in Detroit and we'll admit to being totally smitten with both cars. Again. The duo draw inspiration from the iconic Datsun 510, a lightweight, affordable rear-driver that remains a cult favorite decades after production ended.
Now, a report from our friends at AutoWeek reveals that we may, possibly, hopefully see a production IDx, provided fans make a strong enough case for it. "It's in the plan," Nissan product boss Andy Palmer told AW. According to the report, Palmer said the IDx is "into the first sage of the development process. The next stage is project validation and then looking at the business case. It's no one's intent to waste millions of the company's money, so obviously we have a good feeling about this one."

Datsun previews new budget sedan for Russia [w/video]

Thu, 13 Mar 2014

Nobody does cars on the cheap quite like the Renault-Nissan Alliance. The former part of the equation already has its Dacia brand of cost-effective, no-frills vehicles that have become a favorite of Top Gear co-host James May, and last summer, the latter revived its Datsun nameplate for a budget brand of its own.
The reborn Datsun launched in India this past July with its Go hatchback, returned in September with the Go+ minivan and revealed the Redi-Go concept just last month. And now it's given us our first look at an upcoming budget sedan developed specifically for the Russian market.
The as-yet unnamed vehicle (which we'll bet will incorporate the word "go" into its nameplate somehow) is set to debut on April 4, where it will launch the Datsun brand in Russia. Few details are available at this point, but the low-cost sedan was designed in Japan to offer Russian drivers "an engaging driving experience, peace of mind ownership and accessibility at the right and transparent price, with a competitive Total Cost of Ownership."
