[net.auto] Info. on Nissan 300ZX Turbo wanted

pchan@mnetor.UUCP (Peter Chan) (05/08/85)

I am interested in buying a new Nissan 300ZX GL TURBO (5 speed).
Any information will be appreciated. In particular, I would like 
information on the following questions:

	- I know the shock absorters can be adjusted to firm, median, and
	  soft. How different does it feel? Is firm really firm enough for
	  hard cornering?
	- How is the interior noise? Will the T-roof make any sound
	  when driving in highway?
	- What is the average EPA?
	- Does the turbo cause any problem?
	- Is the car (mechanically) reliable?
	- I know an automatic turbo does 7.4sec in 0-60 acceleration. Anybody
	  has figure on the stick-shift?

Anybody out there has any encounter with the ZX, please reply!

In the last issue of CAR AND DRIVER, the 300ZX was referred to as being a
sports car for people who do not take driving seriously. And, to top it off, it
also is expensive. I believe that the context was in a comparison of vrious
sports coupes, a comparison which the Audi GT coupe seems to have won handily.
