Hi, Miles,

Frazier here.

The price may be OK but the cost of ownership would likely be high. The rear axle of 300ZXs have complicated linkages {whisper....passive steering } which wear out with mileage. If you buy the car "as is" be really sure you have it well checked by a mechanic who knows them

The cats would be expensive to replace, the turbos are likely to be near the end of useful life, and brakes give trouble like the SVX, also because of power/weight ratio.

Don't let me put you off, I love them. Just check carefully.

Joe
