1985 Nissan 300ZX TURBOCHARGED - NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN THIS ORIGINAL / UNMOLESTED / RUST FREE CONDITION. This awesome 300ZX TURBO, with t-tops, has the upgraded digital electronic luxury package (a $2,500 add on) upgraded stereo w/wheel controls equalized DSP stereo system and steering wheel controls), t-tops, air dams, and spoilers it is 100% unmodified original.

This is the pinnacle of the Z31 cars. Nissan built very few in this color scheme (can be verified on the Z registry). This car is one of those "diamonds in the rough" that everyone mistakes for much newer. It may be one of the lowest mileage 300's in the Country. With only 21000 miles it will wow at any car event.

This is an awesome car to own, drive, or simply look at. It has been meticulously cared for, kept in a controlled garage under a 300ZX OEM cover, and never driven in the rain. Car has always been properly stored and only used in ideal conditions.

* PLEASE NOTE THAT THE CLEAR PLASTIC HAS NEVER BEEN REMOVED AND IS STILL ON THE STEREO, A/C.

For a Nissan purist, it is definitely a great piece of history. Be the envy of other 300 owners when you pull up at Nissan shows or enjoy it on Sundays.

The Red paint shines like it was still 1985. There is no body damage or accidents, and it was Ziebarted when new. All of the moldings, handles, window glass, lettering, roof panels, rubber seals, and all other exterior features are in super condition. The door panels, t-top bags, sun shields, carpeting, dash, center console, faceplates, etc. are original and show no wear. The wheels have no abuse and the tires have are new. It drives straight down the road and sticks like glue in the curves. It will stop on a dime with 4 wheel disk brakes!

Never run through an automatic car wash and always hand washed /waxed and is why it looks so fabulous. The undercarriage is dry, original, and rust free too. .

On the inside, the Tan/Charcoal interior still looks, feels, and smells like new. As you can see in the pics, the seats have always been covered and have the TURBO logo on them, and the original floor mats have always been protected. The door panels, t-top bags, sun shields, carpeting, dash, center console, faceplates, etc. are flawless. All of the interior buttons / switches - power windows, door locks, cruise, hatch release, fuel door, and even the clock keeps perfect time. It has the original luxury stereo, w/15 band equalizer, ambient controls for driver, passenger, plus defeat. You may pinpoint sound to come from any corner or blend to your favorite sweet spot. The spare tire compartment still has the orig. spare and never been on the ground, inflator canister, jack, bolts are still in place. The interior is original. Mechanically, it starts, idles, and drives smoothly as you would expect a "well-oiled" machine would. All of the servicing is up to date - fuel injector recall, a/c, belts, timing belt, hoses, fluids all changed and maintained at the proper intervals, The engine compartment / undercarriage are spotless, and it performs without hesitation. With the Turbocharger you have power to spare and can feel it in the seat of your pants when the boost glues you to the seat. The Turbocharger still has factory boost (approx 4 lbs. and has never been exceeded or modified). As I understand it, it is about half of its capability. It scares me to think of the power it would produced if were to be adjusted any higher. I just added K&N Turbo Flow filter and NGK Iridium sparkplugs ($16.00ea) that alone gave a noticeable boost. The 5 speed engages easily and has that new car snap and precision. The clutch is like new. It also has the adjustable 3 set suspension. The A/C is blistering cold and the climate control monitors cabin temp and air flow, diverting the flow of air from re-circulate to reduce dust and pollen to fresh air to directing it to the floor or dash vents. The brakes have plenty of pad left and stop you with confidence. All of the other mechanical functions perform without issue. If you are looking for an unmolested; hard to find 300ZX here you go. These cars are few and far between and will surely appreciate in the years to come. I think it is priced very fairly compared to the others listed on ebay and what else exists. Let's put it this way, there is no way anyone would be disappointed in this car.

*****Now for the record.**** (ABOVE IS THE ORIGINAL AD) This was how the car was described on e-bay and I was led astray by this charlatans' extravagant description of this vehicle. Granted the car cosmetically is showroom but I have listed below the repairs I have had to do to bring car to live up to its description. I was led into a lie by a charlatan that continues to misrepresent vehicles to this date and always sells outside of E-bay. I should of been suspicious when I told him I was going to fly down and drive it back to NC, he protested adamantly stating "a car like this shouldn't be subjected to road hazards" he knew it wouldn't make it to the Dade Co. line! I was very na?ve to buy this car sight unseen and not driven , I had my cousin go look at it in Miami….. it was a poor report from him, all he said was, “the car was pretty”, (and cosmetically it is beautiful), I am sure he did not drive it or look under the hood. I was so excited I bought it even after extensive questioning over the phone to the seller as to the condition of this vehicle. This is my second Z and I knew its weak areas He boldly lied to me at every question, I posed; (and even worse I believed him), and since I have been contacted by others that he has misrepresented their vehicles. I have reported him to E-bay with no success from them, and to the IFD (Internet Fraud Division of the FBI) nothing came of it and he continues to sell Z’s and VETTE’s and other exotics never seen a sale as he always puts Reserve Not Met to avoid E-Bay fees.

Below is the list of what I had to repair. I WILL NOT SELL THIS CAR TO ANYBODY WHO WILL NOT COME TO SEE/drive IT FIRST!

. Car was used very little after 15,000 mi. mark. It was garaged and suffered some degradation from 28yrs. of non use not neglect. This Z has been gone over and whatever was bad or non-functional was repaired or replaced. The paint, tires, battery, have been replaced due to obvious reasons. This car has been gone over with a fine tooth comb and restored to its former state; cosmetically, mechanically, and functionality. So that you are aware of the expense involved I have itemized a great deal of the work performed. Restoring it to a car that wears its original 21,483 miles proudly. And also meets its original description. Cosmetically/Mechanically this is one Awesome Head Turning Z !

California has sold 102,440 EVs since Volt, Leaf went on sale in 2010

Wed, Sep 10 2014

Last July, Plug In America declared that a Mitsubishi i-MiEV in Alabama was the 100,000th electric vehicle sold in the US. Today, the California Plug-In Electric Vehicle Collaborative announced that that many EVs have now been sold in California alone. To celebrate the milestone – which was actually 102,440 EVs sold in the Golden State between when the Chevy Volt and Nissan Leaf were introduced in late 2010 and the end of August 2014 Â– we spoke with some of the key players in moving the battery-powered metal off of the dealer lots and into driver's driveways. CARB's Mary Nichols drives a Honda Fit EV, and said that in LA, it's no longer "a weird thing." The chairman of the California Air Resources Board (CARB), Mary Nichols, took a broad overview. Nichols herself drives a Honda Fit EV, and said that in her home of Los Angeles, that's no longer "a weird thing." She told AutoblogGreen that, "The industry people that we work with are very clear about this, they think the electric cars sell themselves, in terms of their driveability and attractiveness, if you can get a person into one," she said. "The best way to get a person into one is for them to see it somewhere, and that's really what we're celebrating here. As you get to critical mass, and I think 100,000 vehicles is getting to that point, people start looking at these as an option as opposed to something that they walked into the dealership already wanting to get." Given CARB's support of hydrogen vehicles as well as EVs, we had to ask Nichols when she thought H2 would hit the 100,000-vehicle milestone. She declined to answer that question, but did say that, "Hydrogen vehicles are just beginning to be available in the market. They are just being very selectively and even more cautiously introduced than plug-in vehicles because of concerns that customers will have a good experience, and a good experience means that there has to be an adequate supply of fueling stations," she said. "There has been a lot of expression of interest and support and vision in this direction but we are just at the beginning stages, where we were with plug-in vehicles a few years ago. It's going to take a while." If you ask Nissan's Brendan Jones how a state can support a new technology like plug-in vehicles, he will point to how EVs were rolled out in California. Turns out, the company has learned a lot from selling so many Leafs there.

Runway Rumble: Nissan GT-R, Ducati 1098 and Lamborghini Reventon Roadster battle it out

Tue, 29 Jan 2013

One 2.5-mile runway, three different ways to take off: a Ducati 1098, a tuned Nissan GT-R with 580 horsepower and a launch control upgrade, and a Lamborghini Reventon Roadster. You'd naturally expect the Ducati to assert it's lightweight, high-horsepower authority in these matters, but with more than two miles to run, the ride that gets the jump at the line isn't always the one that gets the win.
That comes in especially handy for the Lamborghini, which suffers from a bad start in the first race and just looks plain ordinary in the second, until it finds redemption. You can see how it all goes down in the video below.

Porsche 911 GT3 dukes it out with MP4-12C on track and GT-R on spectacular roads

Thu, 22 Aug 2013

The Porsche 911 GT3 has always been a favorite among auto journalists and car enthusiasts alike, but with the introduction of the new 991-generation GT3, which is the first GT3 with electric power steering and no manual gearbox option, how does it stack up to the competition from McLaren and Nissan?
Evo's Jethro Bovingdon attempts to answer that question by pitting the rear-engine Porsche against the mid-engine McLaren MP4-12C on a racetrack and the front-engine, all-wheel-drive Nissan GT-R on some amazing, twisty European back roads. We won't give away the victor of either comparison, but we will say that, in Evo's test, the McLaren's 141-horsepower advantage doesn't give it as much of an edge over the Porsche on a racetrack as one might think, and the lack of a manual gearbox and the inclusion of electric power steering on the GT3 isn't detrimental to enjoying the car on a back road.
Watch the video below to find out which car Bovingdon prefers on road and track - we think you'll be happy to see him drift around turns every chance he gets.
