Nissan 300ZX/ Stagea

Lots of value here for people who want an impressive and, in some variations, seriously quick coupe. Z31 models sold during the 1980s came as turbo or non-turbos with or without removable roof panels. However only the very best cars will sell at close to $10,000. The shape changed in 1989 and $8000-10,000 currently buys a good non-turbo Z32. These sold in Australia from 1989 until 1996. Twin-turbo R32s will all be used imports and deliver at least 206kW. Most now cost less than $12,000. If you need space with performance take a look at the Stagea wagon. These normally use single turbo GTS-T engines and excellent cars with manual transmission cost $10-12,000. You can spend double that money on a scarce twin-turbo RS260.
