Surfsup Posted March 18, 2007 Share #1 Posted March 18, 2007 Welp, I couldn't find this thread so.. How much did you pay for you're Z? And what do you think too much is tooo much? :surprised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SportBikeMike Posted March 18, 2007 Share #2 Posted March 18, 2007 $2,300. Not as good deal as I originally thought because the seller (bought on Ebay) wasn't exactly up-front about everything. That said, I still got a decent deal for the simple matter that the car has a solid body w/ minimal rust and is a strong runner.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sblake01 Posted March 18, 2007 Share #3 Posted March 18, 2007 I think we did this in a front page poll sometime ago. I paid $275 for my 78 seven years ago and it was a great deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=Enigma= Posted March 18, 2007 Share #4 Posted March 18, 2007 Welp, I couldn't find this thread so.. How much did you pay for you're Z? Just the right amount......:bandit: P.S. If you're gonna ask that question, the least you could do is tell us how much you spent on yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayhawk Posted March 18, 2007 Share #5 Posted March 18, 2007 according to the Window sticker and my Bill of Sale, I paid $4,220.75. Of course, that was in 1973 dollars.... I think the restoration/refresh might exceed that - by a factor of 3 or 4 or 10!...:-) --Jayhawk orginal owner of HLS30-125678 Blue 1973 240Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montezuma Posted March 18, 2007 Share #6 Posted March 18, 2007 More than I should have....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackhammer Posted March 18, 2007 Share #7 Posted March 18, 2007 $900.00 on ebay in October 0f 04. I justified it to some degree with the fact that it had triiple Mikuni's. Still too much. $ 35,000.00 and change... thru December of 06. Absolutely way too much. Still trying to justify it.:stupid: That is until I get in it... turn the key... Hear the engine fire up...Let out the clutch... then I am in Z heaven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1973Z Posted March 18, 2007 Share #9 Posted March 18, 2007 I bought mine in 2003 for $5,000. It is 99% rust free and has been very dependable. As for what is too much money for a Z car, that depends on what you feel it is worth - shop around, you will get a ballpark figure for the price/condition you can afford.

Jeff G 78 Posted March 18, 2007 Share #10 Posted March 18, 2007 I paid $725 for mine back in 1990. It was little more than a rolling chassis. Since then, I've put about $7000 into it - give or take a few thousand and it's not even close to being finished. By the time I do 240 bumpers, body and paint work, different seats, a stereo, and brake upgrades, I'll have another six or seven thousand in it. Those $10,000 "overpriced" 240Zs for sale all of the sudden seem like real bargains... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgood Posted March 18, 2007 Share #11 Posted March 18, 2007 I got mine for $7500 in Pittsburgh in February 1976, I am the original owner.Modifications are:Rear window louvers in 1978 - about $100Front air dam installed in 1978 - about $150Rear spoiler installed in 1979 - about $150New front stock finders and painted in 1979-80 the original color 302 green - about $1000New covers and foam for seats in 2005 - about $150Rear deck carpet in 2005 - about $ 75Everything else is stock and are original parts. The car has 49K miles I use about on all the prices because I am not really sure of the prices.I did do some minor cosmetic changes in paint color to the grill and back tail light panel area, they are painted a gold color, think it compliments the green very well.Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddezso Posted March 18, 2007 Share #12 Posted March 18, 2007 Paid $4,250 for it + $1,000 to ship it to me in Scottsdale plus have put another $3k or so into it......A fine deal for the enjoyment and way better than the price you'd pay for the same vintage American muscle car...
