Currently thinking of going from my S13 (over 200 bhp) to a Z. Looked through all the help topics and studied the figures. Currently average 26-27 MPG but I like the look of the Z and reckon I wont see much difference. Prefer Auto TT. Go on then flame or persuade me. :slap:

You don't need persuading, you need to take one for a drive, if you like then you buy :)

MPG really depends on weight of right foot, any mods and how healthy the engine is. Mine's manual and stock and gets 20 - 25mpg mainly because I drive like a wuss.

 

If you've got a 200SX, then you'll know about Japanese build quality, engineering and so on. The 300ZX should be just that bit better as it was a supercar of its day.

 

It's a "proper" car. Engine at the front, driven wheels at the back as God intended.

 

I've never driven a 200SX so my guess is you'll find the 300ZX just a tad heavier in feel but significantly more grunty with oodles more power (getting technical here :D ).

 

As Mike says, take one for a drive - you won't regret it!

Sorry dont know what year a S13 is, but the steering on a Z is far better than the early, J K L reg 200's. They all felt like the geometry was wrong somehow.
