Strength:
It's LOOKS! This is the 2nd one I've had. Sold my '90 to get a newer one ('94 2+2). If they put a prancing horse and a FERRARI logo on it, they could've sold it for 3X the price. It's the only car I'll ever have that looks as good or better than a Ferrari.... and it's a whole lot cheaper and easier to maintain!
Weakness:
THEY STOPPED MAKING THEM! The new one, due out in 2003, doesn't hold a candle to the 90+ models. It's the coolest looking, affordable, true sports car there is! Similar Products Used: None |

This car definately has nice lines. Even though the design is over 10 years old, it still turns heads. Girls just love this car, especial since mine is bright red. It does go fast (n/a) and handles well enough. Shifting isn't too bad. But what is really surprising is how much space there is inside the car.
Weakness:
The glove box is a joke (airbag is in the way). Like the other people have said, the breaks are a little scary when you really have to stop. I think getting the skyline upgrade from stillen is worth it if you plan to keep the car for a while. Rear vision makes it dicey when changing lanes and backing up. Headlights are also weak on this car. I've upgraded tehm to the PIAA Super White lights I got in japan. They are brighter, but the car still out runs them on the freeway. I put on Dunlop tires and notice the car started to wiggle on the freeway channel on the road. I'm not sure why this brand of tire did this. I changed to Pirellis and it didn't do this. 300zx is really a performance value. When compared to other cars, it offers better interior space, great timeless styling and affordable up keep (compared to other performance cars). Similar Products Used: None |

Hoooooooooooooowieeeee.....damn....this is the PERFECT car!! Looks, comfort, feel, and POWER, a hell of a lot of POWER! You feel like there's an afterburner in the back of this thing! Turns heads like crazy!
Weakness:
Rear view and blindspots need a lil gettin used to, insurance rates on it, besides that.....nothing Sell, you car, put your house on mortgage if u have to, u must get this car, they're becoming a classic. Perfect blend of all the things that a car should be. Similar Products Used: Best car in class in my opinion, Kicks the living crap out of all domestics. Looks better and faster than integras, preludes, talons, u name it, the Z smokes it! |

Strength:
By-FAR the most dependable car that I have ever owned.
Weakness:
Space- I have the 2-seater and it is very inconvenient at times. Also, no trunk space but then again...these really aren't complaint's... This is by far the best mix of sport/dependability that the market could ever hope to offer... Similar Products Used: I have owned 7 cars, although, 2 were ZX's. These cars have ZERO body roll in a corner. Amazing, but true! I have seen roll in Ford T-Bird Turbo's...Dodge Z's (whatever the hell they call them...) and even those damn P-boxsters.....which I expected a whole lot more out of...the Z just makes it's way around without much 'ado' |

Strength:
I love everything! Great acceleration, it will burn almost all the cars out there. Even though it's an '84. All these hicks in there Pontiac Trans Am's are jealous when they see my taillights!
Weakness:
Nothing Oh, this is a great car. Get a Turbo, it will help you out. cops don't watch you because it look sold and you can still kill everybody onb the road! Similar Products Used: Toyota Supra- crappy handling and acceleration. |

This car is FAST. I have yet to lose a race! Porsche, Mustang 5.0, or whatever! The HICAS steering is pretty nice too. Also the climate controls
Weakness:
MAINTENANCE!!! Well the end is never near as far as performance is concerned. Money dictates how many horses you can get under the hood. I am currently upgrading mine to 500+hp! Oh yeah, buy one while you can! Similar Products Used: Eagle Talon |

Turning Capabilities make this car a perfect ciruit racer,the acceleration is way above average. The interior is really nice. i have owned many sports cars, and this one tops them off. Chicks love it, guys are jelous.
Weakness:
View from inside, ive almost side swept a few cars, brakes scare me sometimes. Main weekness is that it wont let you slow down=c) and it doesnt pay for your tickets =c( I recommend getting a NON TURBO, just for the fact, that the turbo hurts the engine in the long run, and you will end up spending $5k a turbo to replace, talked to many TT owners, and offered a trade for my NA, many upgrades are available, i used to hate all the asian cars, but once i drove this Z, it was love at first drive. I love blowing away all the rice rockets, and camaro's and mustang GT's, perfect car to show off when a guy thinks his car is faster than yours. Buy this car and you WILL NOT regret it. But if you are like me and cant control your speed, dont buy it. Similar Products Used: Intrepid Sport 3.5L, Hemi Cuda, BMW 325i, all cars that i love, but the Z just outdoes them in size, speed(besides the Cuda) and with out a doubt, looks. |
