Unique 3 Owner Series Ii 280zx S130 2+2 Low Reserve on 2040-cars
Tampa, Florida, United States
You are bidding on a meticulously cared for 1983 280ZX, automatic, 2+2. I am the third owner with 425,000 miles on the chassis, but you'd never know it looking at this baby! Two years ago, I stripped the interior to metal and installed Fat Mat on all metal surfaces to reduce road noise and ambient temperatures. Then installed new carpet and new floor mats. Has the original dash board and believe it or not, it IS NOT CRACKED!!! There is an upgraded Hi-Definition Radio with hands-free Bluetooth as well as new speakers. As you will see in the pictures, the interior is easily a 9 out of 10.
The exterior is in amazing shape for a vehicle that has traveled over 400,000 miles. Nope, that's not a typo. I bought this car from the family of the second owner, a race car driver who lived in southern California. This Z was his pride and joy and he often drove it for trips to northern California. In the 3+ years I've had it, I've driven this car throughout the state of Florida for car events and car shows. It has never left me stranded or disappointed. It always cranks on the first try and is a blast to drive!This car is being sold with all the receipts going back to the very first owner. In addition, I am including a car cover and front bra. Bads: Not much. There is a small amount of rust just now forming on front lip of the hood. Due to its location, it is really easy to miss, but I've included a picture. Other than that, this a rust-free car having only been in California and Florida. The brake light is lit on the dashboard, but the emergency brake is functioning properly, brake fluid is fine, brake pads are fine. Perhaps a relay or sending unit. he A/C was rebuilt two years ago by a Z shop in town, but it isn't currently blowing cold. The cruise control is not working. Otherwise, all windows, locks, mirrors, lights, gauges, clock, etc. work fine. More pictures and a walk-around video with the engine running can be found at my Photobucket link. Email me and I'll send you the link. Please ask any questions before bidding. I will answer them as quickly as possible. Winning bidder must deposit $500 via paypal within 48 hours of auction close. Good luck. |

Datsun previews new budget sedan for Russia [w/video]
Thu, 13 Mar 2014Nobody 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."
Subaru Legacy pitted against Roadkill project cars
Fri, 05 Sep 2014There's an evergreen debate among auto enthusiasts about whether they would prefer to have the latest and greatest car of today or a certified classic from yesteryear. What if you had to further define that, though, and the choice was between a brand new 2015 Subaru Legacy or a turbocharged Datsun 240Z with a hatch that wouldn't close? Roadkill aimed to find out that and more in one of its best videos to date.
According to the hosts, Subaru came to them, handed over some money and challenged Roadkill's project cars against its latest Legacy. The result is every bit as good (or better) than any automotive-themed show you could find on television.
Things start simple with a figure-eight race in a rodeo arena with the Subaru taking on Roadkill's 1968 Ford Ranchero, originally built for ice racing. From there the Legacy races a 1968 Dodge Charger with no windows around and off-road rally stage. Finally, the Subie goes head-to-head against the Rotsun, the aforementioned turbocharged 240Z, through an abandoned neighborhood. Plus, there's a bonus drag race challenging them all.
Fiat contemplating sub-brand to compete with Dacia, Datsun
Tue, 05 Feb 2013You can add Fiat to the admittedly short list of automakers considering a low-cost brand to rival Dacia. The inexpensive Eastern European brand from Renault-Nissan has performed on the balance sheet like a premium model line, and the money the alliance is taking off the table is encouraging other players to deal themselves in. Pretty soon Nissan's Datsun sub-brand will join the Dacia party, going on sale in Russia, Indonesia and India and will claim even more rubles, rupiahs and rupees for the parent company. Volkswagen recently said it will make a decision this year on a budget line for the Chinese market. With the euthanasia of Lancia and plans to move the Fiat brand upmarket, company CEO Sergio Marchionne wonders aloud to Automotive News Europe whether there could be room for a new budget brand underneath Fiat.
We're told that the initiative has been in the idea box for five years and even moved to the stage of name considerations, like Innocenti, but worries about profit kept it from realization. If such a range were to be developed, Marchionne says it couldn't be built in Italy and stay within budget, and the company is "analyzing its manufacturing capacity outside of Europe to see if a low-cost brand is viable."
