milindu Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 I remember taking a test drive in a Green T.Top in good cond. which was also 300 or 301- regd. This was for sale at the A*W recon showroom about 3 years back. Asking price was 1.2 mil which was still kind of high at the time. How things have changed!!

Supra_Natural Posted January 10, 2007 Author Share Posted January 10, 2007 Rily said: Whats a T-top ????? It stands for Targa top..... where you can remove part of the roof panels (usually on sports cars) leaving a section of the cabin open...... the panels will be usually solid, or glass.... not canvas like a full convertible........ KITT on Knight Rider had T tops.... and the "Buy" Section of the Site has an ad which illustrates T-tops to good effect.... check it out its the "Fairlady Z" btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devinda_Z Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Rily said: Whats a T-top ????? well T- Tops as Supra Natural pointed out r glass removable roof pannels - but they've been used not only on cars such as the Nissan 300zx but also on the Land Rover Freelander 3door as shown bellow the added advantage of a T Top is that without having to take the roof off completely you can enjoy the view outside & not loose out in terms of AC cooling loss or any practicality when minus the T-Tops most cars leave a T Bar visible on the roof section Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kim Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 (edited) i am just. starting work.. wish i had money!!!!!! which is advertised is a awesome ride.. can [bother]*[5 times] around and get it tho.. (of course selling the CARINA anddd) BUT how can i explain ever having to spend SO much on a 301 - /2 door car to my parents too bad.. wishhh if i had have started working some years back.. BTW wots the use of buying such a car for normal day 2 day usage on the other hand..(whos gonna PUMP fuel??) suits for a deep pocket, who may have some other rides for normal usage and U take the Z' once in a while on a sunday afternoon and dats IT!!!! someday hopefully will go for a ONE for sure.. will SAVE from now on.. hehe have seen some silver Z's/301- range i mean, arnt they looking better from outside than the blacky's??? i think silver looks more sexy Edited January 10, 2007 by Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FastCar Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Sorry, I am kind of lost with this topic. Can someone please tell me whether the black 300ZX advertised, is a Turbo or a non-Turbo model. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FastCar Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 If so, I'm sure it cannot produce 220+ BHP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup it's a non turbo which had a stock output of 222HP...... plus this car has a performance exhaust (Those tailpipes are DEFINITELY not Stock ) so theres prbly a cpl of horses there....... anyway NA or not..... I can say from experience, that car is FAST Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, now that we are here .... Popular opinion has it that that is too much for a N/A ZX. I admit it has + points to raise the value. So u never know, u might be able to get that price. However, it will probably not get sold fast. specially if u want to stick to the price. Typically not a lot of demand, so it will have to stay on the market for some time before someone goes for it.

fuzzo Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 also keep in mind that the NA supra with english plates went for around 2.5 million and that too after being on the market for sometime... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
