Market commentary

One of just a few Japanese cars in the sale. Despite the historical significance of the 240Z as well as its long established popularity among enthusiasts, the market for these quick, usable sports cars has remained relatively flat. This well kept car is one of the better ones out there, and it brought an appropriate price.
