Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Aftermarket alloy wheels, Dunlop tires, aftermarket intake, Momo steering wheel, aftermarket Pioneer stereo.

Condition

Clean used engine bay. A few tiny paint chips near the nose and two more small chips on the passenger's side door. Decent paint and chrome otherwise. Very good interior that is claimed to be original. A crack in the dash above the tach is the only big flaw inside. No rust underneath. A strong example with a few mostly tasteful mods, although its last service was ten years ago.

Market commentary

The 280Z was no quicker than the old 240, but it has the same great looks and they've gained an appreciation in recent years that has led to value increases, as shown by this very strong result for a sond driver quality example.
