My Z had a visitor at work today!

Joepro · 10-03-2012, 08:43 PM

One of the techs we know at the local Nissan dealer was servcing this 78' Z with 27k original miles and brought it down for us to drool over, I had to pull in my ride and snap a few pics. excuse the crappy phone quality pics!

Wow. That is a GREAT looking 280.

Not only are these 2 cars awesome. The best thing of it all is that it’s being serviced at Honda. I love Honda.

According to OP, I'm guessing he actually works at Honda and local Nissan tech brought it over since he knew OP had a Z and was a big Z fan.

Correct. This is the tech that prob going to be putting in a new short block for me...checked my oil yesterday, halfway down the stick @ 1500 miles..was hoping to dodge an oil burner, oh well, that's what warranties are for!

blueranger · 10-06-2012, 02:01 AM

Wow... That exact year and model (78 280z) was the very first car I ever owned at the ripe age of 16 back in 1986. The crazy thing is that it was the same color

Great looking Z

I would be pretty upset if I found out my Z is getting driving around to show off to friends.

OP pulled his 370Z up next to the 280Z.
