I was looking around at cardomain.com and found ... what i think is a sweet looking 300zx... i wanted to know what i would have to do to get a car like this for the cheapest amount of money... and what colors may look good... (other then red)... so if you could tell me what parts i would need to buy and about how much it would cost it would be greatly appreciated....Link to pic (http://www.cardomain.com/member_pages/view_page.pl?page_id=29055&make_type_query=make%3DNissan&model_brand_query=model%3D300ZX&tree=Nissan%20300ZX)

Nice Z, but you arne't going to be able to get a Z cheap, especially not one like that. Also you have to look at insurance (expensive as hell) and also parts/maintenance is insanely expensive, not to mention performance parts are rediculously high. If you really want a Z (and I personally have one) you better be willing to pull out your checkbook, as there is no such thing as a cheap Z

Agreed completly! Also how old are you?...that will make a difference with ins.

umm, i got my NA Z a couple years back for 5g's. it's got a rebuilt engine and good body. as for the mods.....i think the prices will dissapoint you no matter if your going for show or performance. it's a bitch to maintain a Z and fix it up........sigh..I LOVE MY Z!! hahaha. get the Z first, then u can figure things out later, no need to rush.
some nice colors on Z's i've seen besides red are: silver, white, and black. Z's don't look good with many colors.
