by nychudson
Jan 23, 2005 (A Very Helpful review)

Author's Product Rating: 50 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Looks great, handles great, very reliable, still gets tons of compliments
Cons: Balky second gear in cold weather, transmission can be noisy, maintenance isn't cheap
The Bottom Line: If you can find a nice example, one of the used car market's best buys

Well, here we go. I'm about to write a review on a car that is now as old as Moses, and has probably been given more criticism and applause than bible scholars ever thought about giving the old man from B.C. Even so, as the 300zx continues to ... read more

Rolling art!

Apr 13, 2002 (A Somewhat Helpful review)

Author's Product Rating: 50 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Style, performance, comfort.
Cons: Maintenance costs.
The Bottom Line: The most refined and trouble-free of the 2nd-generation 300ZXs.

When Nissan designed the second-generation 300ZX, they created nothing less than automotive art. The 1996 model is the final iteration; consequently, it's the most trouble-free and refined. I bought my Z new in 1996; it is my third 2nd-generation ... read more

Author's Product Rating: 50 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Everything!
Cons: Nothing!
The Bottom Line: Awesome car for anyone who loves to drive sports cars.

My family owns a black/tan 1996 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo that I drive from time to time (Its primarily my husbands). This car has a turbocharged V6 engine and can move like no other sports car I have ever driven. It goes from 0 - 60 in 6.5 seconds and ... read more

Jul 3, 2001 (A Very Helpful review)

Author's Product Rating: 50 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Looks Responsiveness/handling Cockpit-like guages Comfort A dang fun car to drive
Cons: I can't think of any, except that I MISS THE NAME DATSUN
The Bottom Line: All in all this is a great car, and I would buy another one in a second. You have to drive one of these cars to appreciate them.

I have wanted a Z since the first one came off the line when I moved to California. I have watched the body styles change slightly over the last 30+ years and never fell out of love with my "Datsun". Had an '85 Maxima which was a mover and as close to a ... read more

Not quite a Z car, but a great GT

by 300ex
Dec 30, 2000 (A Somewhat Helpful review)

Author's Product Rating: 40 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: sexy outside, roomy inside, fast, fun to shift
Cons: 2+2 configuration only available on N/A version

Nissan should not have called the 300ZX a Z car, instead, it deserves the GT moniker, standing for "Grand Tourer". Z car's are light and underpowered, but this is not the case. The 300ZX is relatively heavy (like most of its competition), and ... read more

Author's Product Rating: 50 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Fast, Reliable
Cons: None

It has been a thrill driving around in my 300ZX for the past 4 years, and I don't plan on stopping. This is a truly unbelievable car. It has abilities beyond any sports car of its classification. I really enjoy the 240 bhp it packs under the hood. ... read more

I personally purchased a 300Z because I have always been in love with it's Body Design! Although this isn't considered very practical in the purchasing of a car but, If your in the market for a sports car you aren't very practical any ways!!! ... read more

Married him for his Z...her view

Dec 12, 1999 (A Helpful review)

Author's Product Rating: 50 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Very Reliable, Attractive, Uncommon
Cons: Limited rear room

The first time I saw my future husband's 300ZX, I fell in love (with the car!) I've been amazed, as time has passed, at how many people stare at this 300ZX. It is a 1996, and has literally never been in the shop for repairs. I am very tall and ... read more
