Picked up a 71 240z for $500 in the late 80s. Needed some bodywork and a new front winshield but everything else was in top shape. It was my 4th car, put over 100k really hard miles on it. Back in my reckless driving days. Speeded everywhere and evaded more times than anyone would believe. Finally got caught after getting chased, spinning and rolling it. Fixed it, drove it some more and then changed over to a 69 Vette that I had for a couple of decades. I hadn't put many miles on the Vette since I put the second motor in it and bought my truck. I wanted something fun to drive around in that I could drive every day and had air conditioning. My 240Z was the best fitting 2-seater that I ever owned and I love the look of the 370Z. So I researched the hell out of all the cars I liked, made a spreadsheet and the Z came out on top. I've done a few performance mods but nothing that's made it less comfortable as a DD so I'm enjoying the $hit out of it. 58k miles and still looks and runs like new!
And can I say, thank you Japanese reliability!
