Message I haven't posted in years. Sold my last Z in about 2011. Had a Z consistently from 2004 until 2011. Two different NA cars, my first was a 2+2. Always wanted a twin turbo. I don't think that will ever go away. The annoying part about having owned two NA cars was that everyone always asked if it was TT. The 300zx has always been a car I've lusted after especially considering it was the first sports car I ever owned. I drove my 2+2 in college. Had to even work on it in the dorm parking lot. I put a lot into keeping it running with quality parts and kept it until I got into my current career. The next one I had was stripped out with a roll cage. I quickly found out that a stripped out street car is loud and the floor will burn your feet. Put an interior back in and sold it.

I've been watching over the last couple years and noticed a trend. The trend is up, up, and some are going to be unobtainable one day. In looking for another Z it seems like many of the nice ones are gone or already snatched up. I should have a budget of about 10k. If I remember correctly the best years were the 94-95', for the wiring and lack of OBDII. Any opinions on a budget and criteria for my next Z?

My next car has typically been my favorite car... in the last ten years... the short list, and the Camaro is now for sale haha! List is about as chronological as I can remember, oldest first.
