i stand corrected then HOWEVER... thats not clear in THIS thread at all. So i think we all made fair calls If this were titled "Project Car Wanted: Consider anything" then fair enough. It wasn't
And your exhaust (just the back half) and your tail lights. Maybe I should just buy your car and sell the bits I don't want Not a big fan of side skirts, but I do have the front guards which you don't have
I would like to thank every one for there, i now have 1 You were all right, $5000 for a 89+ 300zx! no way. But $4500, YES. I pick-up my 300zx 2 seater targa top twin turbo with leather trim. It is stock, the inside is A1 and all there, it even has the stock tape deck.It dose have a 1'' tear on one seat. It has 92500km and it was first regoed in Australia on 4/5/06. The body is straight no rust, on gard is in undrcoat and the boonet,gard and front apron needs a respay because of stone chips and scratches. It was passed for a one day vechicle permit on the 6/11/07 so i shouldn't have any trubble for rego. The guy i brought it off brought a motor off Sydeny auto dismantlers for $2000 and had it put in 1/11/07( i have all the invoices }. So i will post some pick tomorrow, just to show people out there with little cash to spend on a car there is hope if you look hard enugh. This is just a drive to work car for me so my wife would have the vx to drive, so thats why i didn't want to spend a shit load. I was look at rx7s, but i am so happy that i got a Zed.
So you got a WORKING 300ZX for your coin? How long has it been on the main land from Taz, and do you intend letting the cops know? just sayin
on behalf of everyone's jerky comment i would like to say that i hope they are sorry...not that you proved them wrong but reading all which was written they acted like total jerks....... yes 5 gran is a tight budjet and im suprised you for a TT with leather etc. good luck mate....
Dude i dont think its fair to say we acted like jerks at all. One of 3 things has happened here...... 1) Pretty much every single club member has been ripped off with what they paid for thier Zed, as the price for a TT sports car in good running condition is now LOWER than the price of a broken Excel......... not likley 2) He's got extremly extremly lucky 3) He's brought a piece of shit with wheels on It's either 2 or 3 but it sure as hell isn't 1
no one would sell a $10,000 car for $4,500 unless they were GLAD to see it gone.. thats just my opinion..
i would say number 2....he got lucky, but i still recon it was taken to far....had like 10+ post flaming the dude....i dunno but on this forum i think its what it is today "a friendly, helping place" which makes it better than all the others.... yes it frustrating for these cars going alot cheaper, but the truth is they are only valuable in a very small market. ie. pretty much only us guys on here....ive seen tonnes of zeds being dropped to crazy prices... most probably the car is in okay condition, things will perish and he will need to spend money on it......thats why i personally could get a cheap TT for 6k if i looked for a while which works, but i would rather go for something that has everything that needed replacing replaced, like what i would find from a fussy forum member.....thats just my opinion..... cheers
well if im correct i understand he bought this car http://www.aus300zx.com/forum/showthread.php?t=269547 goodluck with it, but it's hardly a bargain.
If the turbos arent dead, then I dont think he did tooooo bad. If he has to do an engine swap, or do the heads, brings it back to the price of most zeds anyway, then add the other issues, but looked pretty clean on the inside and not too bad on the out. But yeah, IF it is that one... NOT a working car for the money. SO no... he didn't get lucky.
