Hi

I recently came across a book in a secondhand shop called "JAPANESE SUPERCARS". Written by a guy called terry Jackson in the early nineties , he covers all the cars that were brought out at that time including Mitsubishi gto, Mazda rx7, Lexus soarer, Honda NSX, Mazda MX5 (the supra had'nt arrived yet) and of course...the NISSAN 300zx

 

He really covers every car indepth, with Colour photos , specifications, driving experience, how they were designed Etc. Although he tried his best to be Un-biased, the write-up on the Z was without doubt the favourite.

 

 

"The first sentence i want to write about driving

the 300zx is that it is a perfect , expensive, affordable sports car, now i Know that these three words-perfect,expensive and affordable -, dont normally go together, but on the 300zx they do"

 

 

"first , lets look at why the adjective perfect applies to the 300zx. From just about any angle , its very hard to find fault with the zx. Its styling works so well that there is not a single element that's out of place, and the overall shape is very seductive. it turns heads wherever it goes, and thats a measure of perfection in any sports car" Thats just the start, little did he know nothing's changed 14 years later :dance:

I bought this from e-bay last year for a couple of pounds :hyper:

 

There is another comment about the ZX "......buy one, drive it for 60,000 miles and trade it in. It will be THE most perfect experience of your motoring life......." :bow:

 

Nuff said ;)
