For Sale: 1987 Nissan 300ZX in Arlington, Texas

1987 Nissan 300ZX

The Nissan 300ZX was a Japanese sports car that was produced across two different generations. It was originally known as the Z car (or the Fairlady Z in Japan) but the X would be added as a carryover from its predecessor, the 280ZX. The thought was to signify the presence of more luxury and comfort oriented features. The Z31 model was the 300ZX and produced from 1983 to 1989. It was a huge success becoming the highest volume Z-car for Nissan. These cars came with a slightly higher price than previous years as Japan designed it to be faster and feature more advanced technology. This 1987 is in excellent condition and has largely been redone. It has 119,543 original miles but don't let that scare you because the car comes with a ton of receipts and anytime something needs attention it gets addressed. It was originally sold out of Bedford, Texas and resides with its original owner. It has been used as a commuter car for most of its life and has recently received a cosmetic restoration. The paint is a White pearlescent that has been redone and it got a full color sand/buff within the recent few years to give it an excellent finish. The glass is in good condition throughout and these models came with removable t-tops. The tinting has all been redone. The exterior electrical all works properly with the headlight motors being replaced in 2022 and the entire headlamp assembly in 2024. The car rides on its original alloy wheels and the P205/65R15 Falken tires were replaced in August 2022.

This was a unique year for the manufacturer with the introduction of Japan's first mass produced EFI V6 instead of the inline sixes used previously. This new 60 degree V6 helped to uphold the sporty nature of the cars but in a compact and efficient package. The car looks very clean under the hood and runs very well. It receives regular tune ups and has had multiple components replaced over time from small features like a new distributor and new fuel filter to larger items like the muffler/tailpipe. The car cruises around great and the 5 speed manual transmission moves through the gears smoothly. It was ordered from the factory with power steering, power disc brakes, and 4 wheel independent suspension. All of the receipts outlining the various improvements are available for review.

The interior of the car is all Tan leather and is in immaculate condition. In cars of this vintage the insides tend to start showing their age first just from being driven. However, this one has all been redone including the seat upholstery, carpet, headliner and side plastics. It features a lot of stock components but does have a new touch screen IPS stereo with bluetooth, remote control, mic and rear view camera. The speakers have all been replaced as well and it sounds great. These cars came with digital instruments and all are working properly. Pop open the rear hatch and you will see the nice new carpet plus plenty of extra storage space.

These Nissans are very unique sports cars and are officially a "classic." They have quite the following and you are going to have a tough time finding one that has been better cared for than this. There has been a bunch of money invested into it, all of which is documented and it also comes with its original window sticker.

It is being offered up at the very reasonable price of $18,500.00!
