Video of the last Z car built for the US as a 1996 model. I just wonder who was the first owner of this vehicle, and where it may be running today.
Note: Originally, it's not my video, but nobody else on youtube seems to have uploaded this, so I decided to upload it myself. The link to where I got the video is right below this description.

1999' Z32 Nissan Fairlady Z 300ZX 2by2
The only thing that remained unchanged from the previous generation 300ZX is the 3.0-liter V6 engine, now with dual overhead camshafts (DOHC), variable valve timing (VVT) and producing a rated 222 hp (166 kW) and 198 lb·ft (268 N·m) in naturally aspirated form. The big news for enthusiasts, however, was the turbo variant, now upgraded with twin Garrett turbochargers and dual Intercoolers. This was good for 300 hp (224 kW) along with 283 lb·ft (384 N·m) of torque. Performance varied from 0-60 times of 5.0-6.0 seconds depending on the source, and it had a governed top speed of 155 mph (249 km/h).
Upon its release, the new 300ZX became an instant hit, winning Motor Trend's "Import Car of the Year" in 1990 as well as "One of the Top Ten Performance Cars". Automobile Magazine honors the 300ZX/300ZX turbo as its "Design of the Year" and adds it to their "All Stars" list. Road & Track names the 300ZX turbo "One of the Ten Best Cars in the World", and Car and Driver adds it to their 10Best for the seven years in which it was in production in America. American Z-car sales reach the one million sales mark in the 1990 model year, making it the all-time best selling sports car. Even years after production the 300ZX is still thought to be one of the most beautiful automobile designs of all time.

Onforza - 300zx vs 370Z
www.onforza.com - When Nissan built the first 300zx, they had no idea that it would take them over 20 years to improve on the Z-car formula. The 370z is Ferrari fast, and works hard to differentiate itself from its older brother. But with depreciation in mind, are you better off buying a 370z, which retails in the mid 30k range with the bits you want, or should you buy a secondhand 300zx and fix it up to be faster?
