  1. Hey guys...just found this post in my e-mail...It has been about a month since I last looked at the site (nope havent posted in a while). I ended up getting a Saturn SC2 1998 (its a car, but its no Z). Oh yea and...no trunk space. least not much more then I am sure I would have found in a Z. For my folks it came down to reliability factors (they didnt want me stranded everywhere) and for my father it was all about space...which I dont even use. Just so you guys know the SC2 is a 2 doors 4 passenger (did I say 4 I ment 2 in the front and 2 midgets with their legs cramped in the back ). It really doesnt offer that much space as far as trunk space as I mentioned. I am now a senior in college and will soon be off to the "real world" as they say. Which for me is great in many ways...for one thing I will be able to buy my dream cars. A 1971 Datsun 240Z and a Austin Mini with a Acura Integra type R engine in it. The Z is more important to me as it still to this day is the beauty in my eyes. If only I could find a decent Z for a decent price...one day I am sure.
  2. he is doing 190ish MPH when he is at top speed. He was downshifting when the accident happened...maybe he was pushing it to hard. Right before he looses control it looks like the car is moving left and right slightly...braking to hard?

    Why is the sky blue? Why is it red in the evening?
  9. if you guys ever watch "That 70s Show" keep a look out for a 240Z. You will see it when Eric is working at the dinner. The will show it twice; when eric looks at donna, then later when in the dinner also eric looks at his mom...Both times in the background
  10. r/c

    ok...new question for everyone. I was going through a Z magazine and found an ad in there about there being a r/c car 240Z for sale from strictly Z. I went to the strictly Z site however and found no such thing. Does anyone know about any of these r/c cars, or where to find them? I would be willing to buy them off one of you guys if you have 1. Thanks in advance
  11. the size of the triangle windows in the back are different sizes
  12. Hate to tell you this, but 240Zs rust everywhere. All 70s cars for that matter have rust issues. Someday when I go out looking for a 240Z I plan to buy one with tha color scheme. I will keep my eyes open for ya. But if you do find one....look really really close for rust. Minor rust many times leads to finding major rust somewhere else.
  13. go to your local Z club...it is possible they have seen one around. Yours should be http://www.mdzclub.org. I hope this is the closest to you as it was the only one I could find in Maryland. Find if they have a meeting time and go sometime and just ask one of the people in charge if they have seen one or if they can look out for them for you if they ever come across them. Thats my best advice. Unless you are willing to travel miles and such (then go around and look). Another thought would be to look in your local papers classified. Many times Zs will pop up on there. My last advice would be to go to a search engine and try to find Zs in you area that are put up for sale. Finding a certain color scheme may be hard, but best of luck
