Almost a barn find
That would be interesting to know. My VIN exceeds the total number of 240Zs made according to Johnnie's numbers. Does anyone know how this could be the case?

Cricket, Cricket, Cricket
Last year I had an '83 280Zx turbo for awhile, and that car handled GREAT. It was a blast on exit ramps! If it wasn't for the automatic transmission, I would have kept that car, and sold my 350.

looking for 1st Z- what is this 280Z worth?
Wow....thats a beautiful car. Price sounds reasonable to me.

Something New for Me
Sounds like fun. We had a cruise here about a month ago. I wished I would have entered my 240Z.....it would have been a nice relief from the multitudes of Camaros, Mustangs, and Corvettes (yawn...).

ZCar Sales!! What's it really worth?
I think its a DEAL! If I didn't just buy a 280, I'd definitely be interested.

ZCar Sales!! What's it really worth?
Same here. Zs-ondabrain's Z would be listed for $7,000- $8,000 around here.

What makes the z special to you?
When I was a kid, I decided I HAD to have a 280ZX. Nothing else would do! My parents tried to talk me out of it but I would have none of it. I think it was the looks that did it.....the long hood, scooped headlights, and just the general image. To be honest I don't think I even knew what a 240Z was at the time. But when I got the ZX, I did some research and learned all about the heritage of the car and have been a Z fan ever since. I, too, go out to my garage sometimes to admire the lines of my 240Z. Like people have said, perfect from EVERY angle. You can't say that about too many cars. My 350Z, for example looks good from some angles....from other angles, uh....not so much. I have my 240 parked next to my MV Agusta sportbike.....in a beauty contest, it would be a tough call. Kinda like trying to choose between Marissa Miller and Jessica Alba....

New Z Owner - Orange 72
Very nice! I wonder if that's 905 red? Mine almost looks orange like that in the sunlight.

Saw Another 240Z Today!
Must be nice. I don't think I've seen another 240 besides mine in years. A few 280s....but no 240s. Thats the Midwest for you.....:disappoin
-
would a 280zx be a good first car?
Good luck in your quest. As vintage sports cars go, a ZX is not a bad choice. You're in the South, so hopefully you'll find a nice, rust-free example.

Overpriced? Your Opinion
As far as I know, all L28s were fuel-injected.
