Not a bad-buy... low-miles for a '90! I'd get it! What have you heard about the '90's? I only heard about the '96's...

Re: buy or not?

that is very low mileage for a '90, let alone any 300zx (at least the price range im looking at, which is less than what you are looking at). i have also heard about the '90 not being as good as other years, he didnt tell me anything specific but i told him i was looking at a '90 and he said to get another year.

Re: buy or not?

i dunno, i think it was mainly the features of the car like air bags, stuff like that. but im not sure... i dont think its performence wise difference. but i was aiming for a 93 but if this is a good buy then i will get it maybe. since i do live in teh motor city, import cars are impossible to find esp. a nissan lol closes is a honda. but thats the same everywhere right? and is the price right for that? i mean i seen some other 300zx about 3-5k lower then that with lower milage such as this...

http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...or=&cardist=23
two of these are N/A and the ones that are TT is automatic...
Would it also be better to buy a stock TT auto car for cheap and havea tranny swap? how much would a tranny swap including everything such as service and parts be about?

The tranny swap can be complicated and really isn't worth it. As far as the 90s go, 89 and early 90s production Zs had a few problems. The big one being "soft valves" Check the VIN.
