Hello and welcome.   Being offered is my 1984 Nissan 300 ZX.     I've had it just over a year, and it was to be my "hobby",  back-up transportation and over-all fun-to-drive machine.     Had cancer surgery last Fall, with more to come.   Am now not able to work on cars.          3.0 liter V6 fuel-injected engine and 5-speed manual trans..     Engine runs well and trans. shifts smoothly.     (Drove ZX to grandson's HS graduation in MD 2 weeks ago, did fine).    No accidents.     Has AC and tries to click on, but can't due to lack of refrigerant (old R-12).    Has current (through Aug.  2013) WV inspection sticker.    All exterior lights work, as well as motorized pop-up headlights.    Both windshield and back window wipers work.   Had disabled (pulling bulbs, fuses, or disconnecting wires) interior lights due to always leaving them on while working on car.    Engine timing belt was replaced at 142,000 miles.    Wheels are factory alloy, tires are very good, and factory spec..    Have replaced in last year:   both hood struts, starter, rear shocks, front rotors and pads,   oil and filter change (100% synthetic).  I don't think the cruise control works, but have never looked into it.    The black insert for the grille was missing when I got he car (have seen them on EBAY for around 50.00).   The interior carpeting isn't all that good, but had started working in replacing it.   The seats are a sort of blue/gray and gray velour-type fabric, no holes or tears,  I have black aftermarket seat covers draped over the seats at present.   Installed tight-fitting leather steering wheel cover.   Glass is in good condition, a few scratches and dings.    Aftermarket radio with detachable faceplate and CD player.     Power antenna raises when radio is turned on, and lowers when turned off.    There is a crack in the red plastic piece between the taillights (common on these cars).

     One non-stock feature is the permanent installation of rear fender flares.     They come from a 1984 300 ZX 50th anniversary edition.   They are bolted and epoxied on, then faired in.
The paint is Duplicolor (Sherwin-Williams Co.) Deep Blue Metalic  LACQUER.    There needs to be some touch-up of paint as well as some more wet-sanding, compounding and polishing in my opinion.  (car was silver originally).    I somehow lost the ZX emblem from the upper nose after removal for painting.  (have seen these on EBAY).    This is my 4th and final Datsun/Nissan Z-car,  will miss them.
  I cannot arrange shipping.     The vehicle is sold as-is, with no warranty.     No oil used in 1100 miles since oil change.    Any questions, just ask.      This car turns a lot of heads .
Thanks for stopping by.         Adding:    2 or 3 areas cracked open on top of dash from heat/sun.  Not bad for 30-year-old car, though.    Repair manual included.  Has collapsible spare tire with gas canister.

'I'm glad he did it': Carole Ghosn slams Japanese justice system

Wed, Jan 15 2020

BEIRUT — Carlos and Carole Ghosn, the former first couple of carmaker Nissan, are united again in Beirut. They hold hands in the street and whisper together in a mix of Arabic and French. They kiss. But the pair's most visceral display of unity comes when they talk about Carlos Ghosn's former home. "I'm done with Japan," said Carole Ghosn in an interview with her husband in a private house in Beirut. Two weeks ago, Carlos Ghosn made a dramatic escape from house arrest in Japan, where he was awaiting trial on charges of under-reporting earnings, breach of trust and misappropriation of company funds. He denies all charges. Shortly after Ghosn appeared in Beirut, Japanese authorities issued an arrest warrant for Carole on suspicion of alleged perjury related to the misappropriation charge against her husband. "What they're accusing me of is a bit of a joke," said the 54-year-old Lebanese-American national, who spent many years as a fashion designer in New York and whose children live in the U.S. city.  "I testified for hours and they told me you are free to go, and now, nine months later ... this comes up. They are vindictive. This has nothing to do with the law."   Related: Yamaha warns to stay out of large musical instrument cases after Ghosn escape Ghosn says French ambassador told him: 'Nissan is turning against you'   Carlos Ghosn was even more adamant. "I spent 18 years in Japan; I never suspected this brutality, this lack of fairness, this lack of empathy." Tokyo prosecutors have said his allegations of a conspiracy are false and that he has failed to justify his acts. The plan to flee to his childhood home of Lebanon developed quickly with a small group of people, a "reasonable price" and utter secrecy, he said. "The first rule if you want to do something like is that no member of your family should be aware because they become very anxious," he added. Asked whether she would have dissuaded him from escaping, Carole Ghosn blurted: "Yes!" But then she paused, looked at her husband and added: "No. I mean, actually, let me rephrase. If you told me this at the beginning, I would have said, 'No, of course not. You're going to fight this and prove your innocence.' ... But then, with time, we saw how the prosecutors were behaving ... I said 'Oh my God, my husband is never going to get a fair trial,' and I was desperate." "I'm happy he did it," she said. Japan's justice minister has said Ghosn's escape from his trial could constitute a crime.

Best and worst car brands of 2022 according to Consumer Reports

Thu, Feb 17 2022

It's that time again, Consumer Reports this morning lifting the curtain on its 2022 Annual Car Brand rankings and its 10 Top Picks in the car, crossover, and truck category. Drumroll, please: This year, Subaru climbs two spots to claim the winner's circle, having come third the last two years. Last year, Mazda climbed three spots from 2020 to take the crown. This year, Mazda slipped to second, BMW taking the last spot on the podium, also a one-spot drop from 2021. Six automakers in the top 10 hailed from Japan, which is one more than last year, and five luxury makers occupied the top 10, which is two more than last year. And South Korean representation didn't crack the top this year, after Hyundai managed tenth last year. The seven makes after BMW are: Honda, Lexus, Audi, Porsche, Mini, Toyota, and Infiniti.  The magazine and testing concern says its Brand Report Card "[reveals] which automakers are producing the most well-performing, safe, and reliable vehicles based on CR’s independent testing and member surveys," and that "Brands that rise to the top tend to have the most consistent performance across their model lineups." The domestics also took steps back among the 32 OEMs ranked on the 2022 card. Chrysler and Buick were the domestic carmakers who made last year's top 10 in eighth and ninth, respectively. This year, Buick dropped to eleventh, Chrysler to thirteenth. Dodge went from fourteenth to sixteenth. CR continues to ding Tesla's yoke steerer, the not-exactly-natural handhold responsible for the electric carmaker going from sixteenth last year to twenty-third this year.

Recharge Wrap-up: Toyota FCV ready for production, Nissan tests Leaf-to-Home energy management

Fri, Oct 17 2014

Toyota will begin selling its hydrogen fuel cell vehicle (FCV) in Japan in December. The US and Europe can expect to see the car become available next summer. The FCV, which will likely be called "Mirai" (meaning "future") in Japan, is ready for production ahead of its initial deadline at the end of the fiscal year in March. Toyota planned for annual production of 700 units, but might increase output to meet higher-than-expected demand, which is currently nearing 1,000 units. The cars will mostly be sold in the four cities where a hydrogen fueling infrastructure is already being put in place: Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka and Fukuoka. Read more at Nikkei Asian Review. Nissan is testing the Leaf EV as part of an energy management system including "Leaf to Home" technology. The system allows the Leaf to help support the power grid during peak energy usage, or provide backup power to a home or building during outages, particularly in emergencies like natural disasters. Using the Leaf's battery to provide electricity during peak hours would lessen the demand on the grid and make the system work more efficiently. Furthermore, if consumers are compensated for the energy saved by using the Leaf for power during periods of high demand, it could encourage more people to adopt the EV.

CDP keeps track of how much companies are disclosing about their impact on global climate change. "The need for data on corporate climate change impacts and strategies to reduce them has never been greater," says CDP CEO Paul Simpson. "For this reason we congratulate those businesses that have achieved a position on CDP's Climate Disclosure Leadership Index." Other perfect scores were earned by Nissan, BMW, Daimler and General Motors. Read more in the press release from Honda below. Scientists at Stanford University have developed a lithium ion battery that can warn users before it overheats. A thin layer of copper between the anode and the layer separating the anode from the cathode acts as a sensor. When it detects lithium buildups from overcharging are approaching the separator, it sends an early alert long before it gets to a point where it would cause a short (which could lead to a fire). The new safety measure could be used in all sorts of battery applications, and not be limited to EVs. Learn more at Phys.org.
