Strength:
Great looks, quality build, slick shifter, heart awakening acceleration, road hugging, good feel for heavy car.
Weakness:
Exhaust note is whimpy, must let turbos cool down, a little excessive with the electronics and should go on a diet. Classic beauty. Incredible handling in sport mode (but stiff). Acceleration that pins you to your seatback. Similar Products Used: Corvette, BMW M3 roadster, Honda S2000, Mazda Miata and Probe GT |

300ZX Turbo
Strength:
Engine, and tranny. Five Speed gives you jump off the line. Also, in Cali weather, holds up very well.
Weakness:
Seat Upholstry, Stereo Sucks! Gas Guzzler also. There is so other car with as much value and sports car ses appeal as this one. Would you belive that I just beat a 1992 3000GT three days ago? I have raced Mustangs, Camaros, Trans Ams, and haven't lost yet. Except to a 92 300ZX Similar Products Used: 1969 Camaro RS 2000 Pontiac Firehawk |

Strength:
great design(engine and body), rare and rare to see one that old in excellent shape in NY.Fast and powerful
Weakness:
hard to work on.gas this is the first car i have owned and i love it. I didn't want a mustang or a Camaro like everyone else i know and this is a head turner especially in upstate New York. the engine is a supercharged n/a and it responds with a feather's touch to the gas. it is a manual 5 speed with a beautifully smooth trans. for an 18 year old car it is a beauty inside and out with only 80,660 original miles. Similar Products Used: porche 911 turbo. Audi TT turbo convt. |

non turbo
Strength:
style, cornering, and how rare it is to see them(not like mustangs of Civics)
Weakness:
insurances (im 19 and its killing me) I have only had my Z for a little over a month and it is the nicest car ever. At least for the price i paid. it only has 57,000 miles and plenty of mods like intake exhast and the AM turbos there are a fes othes but thoose are the big ones. i read this review before i purchased it and you guys are right it handles like no other. this car really is in a class of its own.

Nissan 300zx non-turbo
Strength:
handling is only beat by a subaru allwheel drive, accelleration is exellent. stereo quality is amaculate for a 12 year old car. and climate control is the best thing that has ever happend to summer to winter driving.
Weakness:
big fat speeding tikets, i have to carry a bat to keep the girls of it, parts are pricey but then again i'm not driving a sentra, insurance is pricey but then again i'm not driving a sentra..... oh and i dont like not driving it. I've been in love with only three import cars twin turbo supras, twin turbo Rx7s, and twin turbo 300zxs.... I actually saw the car for sale as i was driving back to modesto in a brand new eclipse gt across the bay bridge, and i had never seen a gold z-car so i called the number and bought the car two weeks later. The Z is non-turbo but has power to beat most other non-turbo imports. the car itself is much more stylish and comfortable than the 2002 eclipse. within all good time the guys from stillen will help in assisting me to make this the best non-turbo z-car. Similar Products Used: in comparison to the z-car, 02 eclipse gt (F-), 98' integra gsr (c-) |

Strength:
good for picking up all the car hoes out thier. very fast only got beat by a supercharged ss.
Weakness:
realiability sux, to heavy, breaks suck, makes annoying noises (rattles, creeks, screeches) All i can say about this car is MONEY PIT! I have owned this car for 2 months now and already my fuel injectors went out $1580 to fix, tranny just blew $3000 to fix, warped rotor that makes a really annoying screeching sound,coolant leak underneath intake,exuahst leaks everywhere which makes me kinda sick not to mention the brakes on this car suck. the only good thing i can really say about this car is that it reasponds very well to mods. Similar Products Used: toyota supra-( i recommend this car just save your $$$) civic si-(sounds annoying, isnt fast) mustang gt-(to little hp for a 4.7l engine) rx-7(fund as hell to drive pricy to maintain) |

Strength:
Quick, agile, t-tops
Weakness:
Excessive use of turbo causes 15-18mpg This was the first year of the 300ZX''s that came out. Unlike the 90''s ^ version, this car came with 200 hp with the one T-3 turbo attached to it. I like that car very much and it''s worth much more than what i paid for it. The car has become my import project that recently fell short with my 93 Honda Del Sol. The 5-speed manual is one of the strongest I''ve driven. I''m very pleased with my car. |

Strength:
The twin turbo run fine even at almost 100,000 miles, and the car is a blast to drive, not to mention all the girls tha turn their heads at the boardwalk to ask for a ride.
Weakness:
The car sometimes doesnt sound right when turned on with out the remote starter, it seems to choke a bit, but its only because the fuel injectors may need to be cleaned. Other then that, the only other features I would reccomend to change are the stock Bose stereo system which is about as good as a 1980''s boombox, and the EXTREMELY HIGH Gas prices in the USA. The car is amazing. I bought it almost a year ago with 93,000 miles on it for 8,600$. What a deal! I doubt anyon on earth could have gotten a better deal on this model car with nero problems in and on it. i love it and not only do I smoke most other imports, but as well I can keep up with stock turbo supras and the VR-4 3000GT.. Pretty impressive considering it has a bit less horsepower. Similar Products Used: First car, In love with it ! |

Strength:
It cornering, handling, and looks.
Weakness:
I have yet to find any. This is one of the best cars that I have ever driven. I have owned it for 2 years now and haven''t had to replace anything on the car (''cept the gas of course). It drives like a sports car should and I have no complaints with it. The Z car is awesome and it usually turns the heads of other sports car drivers. ***And someone is ALWAYS wanting to race*** Similar Products Used: Toyota Celica and 3000GT |
