This 280z runs beautifully and handles well on the highway and streets. It response very well with lots of power! This 280z was fined tuned at a certified Nissan shop that specialize on Z’S – Mikes Z Shop, Whittier, CA. This 280z has a fresh rebuilt engine that starts every time you’re ready to go. The automatic transmission shifts excellent. It has a new moderate factory color matched 2 stage paint job, original Sky Blue 510.

Title: Clear title. Title on hand. Currently listed with the DMV as non-op, so no late fees will be applied during new registration. Overall/Remarks: I personally love this car but I must part with it and I will regret it. Lots of time and effort was invested. This 280z has gone thru a full inspection of the engine, electrical, charging system, sensors, throttle body, MAF, EFI, connectors and wires. Everything seems to work as it should. The interior was gutted and cleaned out. I cannot guarantee or give a warranty on this car since it’s a 34 year old car and things could malfunction from one day to another. Here are a few things I noticed that might need attention in the near future 1.Replacement of shocks. 2. The rear hatch has a small rust spot from the louver leaking in the past 4. passenger outside tie rod has a little play. My plans are to get the Air Conditioning working by shipment or pick up, but I cannot guarantee. I’m in contact with a guy that will try to come by to refill old school R12 freon. The 280z doesn’t consume oil and has no oil leaks. No overheating. Please review all pictures for a full depiction of the condition. The title is clean and I have title on hand. In case I forgot to mention something please feel free to contact me. Please only bid if you intend to buy. Thank you. Shipping: Buyer is responsible for all shipping cost. I will ship worldwide.

This is a great price for a 280z that has a rebuilt engine, fresh paint and running great. Why buy a tired old 34 year old engine. On Feb-16-12 at 14:39:23 PST, seller added the following information: NEW RESERVE $6050.00 After discussing this with my wife the new reserve will be $6050.00 or the next bid. This is well worth the money for a nice 280z. Thank you.
