Nissan Fairlady Z (300ZX) concept for sale on eBay

Posted by godong car on Friday, 19 November 2010

A Nissan Fairlady Z Z32 (aka 300ZX) - one of nicest Japanese sports cars in my opinion - convertible is not big news, however one with a folding hardtop is! The production cabriolet version went on sale in 1993, along with the T-top and standard versions, but before this, in 1991 Nissan produced a concept version that was shown at a number of auto shows. The concept featured a power-folding, retractable hardtop.

The concept was built  with American Sunroof Corporation (ASC) and it is now for sale on eBay, with a Buy-It-Now price of $62,000. Power is provided by the standard 3.0L V6, mated to a five-speed manual gearbox. The car has only 8,202 miles on the clock. According to the seller's listing, the original build cost was in excess of $800,000.

And just some history... Nissan utilized the Cray-II supercomputer to completely design the 300ZX with a form of CAD software. This made the 300ZX one of the first production cars to be developed in a CAD program!

The "Nissan Fairlady Z 240ZG (HS30)" model was replaced by a Fairlady Z Z432R (PS30SB) model
Life continues and so are my orders for new scale models! This time I focused on Nissan Fairlady models, along with a couple of Skylines and a Pulsar GTI-R model. The latter one will be available next year, but I was lucky enough to be able to place a pre-order.
