when I spoke with Steve Millen he told me that each customer had different requests for their personal build. So each of the 6 were configured differently with some aspects the same on each car. Such as the vented fenders (non-functional), Brembo front brakes and Nissan sport brakes on the rear, gauges in the glovebox etc. The original owner was a woman who lived in Hawaii and saw the GTZ featured on the cover of R&T. She purchased the car with a credit card from a Nissan dealer in San Juan Capistrano, CA. The car was then trailered to Stillen in Santa Ana and after about $45,000 in additional mods the car was crated and air freighted to her in Hawaii. She put about 7,000 miles on the car and headed back to the mainland. She became pregnant and realized the Z was no longer practical. She then bought an Infiniti Q45 and had Stillen mod that car for her as well. When I bought the car in 1995 it was practically brand new!
