road rider Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Some 280ZX's These cars have been appreciating very well on the back of the 240/260Z market. They wont get those crazy dollars the earlier Z's are getting, but I have noticed that prices are on the rise. An interesting one. Triples and 3lt bottom end I like the black interior. Too many ZX's had really gaudy colour schemes. $32500 For sale 1981 Nissan 280ZX 2 2 Coupe T-Top Manual with Worked 3 Litre | Cars, Vans & Utes | Gumtree Australia Wodonga Area - Wodonga | 1285586225 This one is up there in price at $35000 Another with a black interior! Nice to as the seats have been redone in black leather. It's had a respray at some point in it's life. The present owner has had it for about a year but doesn't know much history of the car unfortunately. 1979 Nissan 280 ZX 2 2 Manual Coupe | Cars, Vans & Utes | Gumtree Australia Adelaide Hills - Lenswood | 1290454540 rubberman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

road rider Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Now this one I do really like lol Interior isn't black or as nice as some of the other ZX's listed. But it is a neat interior with black carpets at least. Present owner has had it for about 6 years and the car has gone through a bit of a resto in this time. Mechanically its had a shipload done as well. 280ZX Priced at $28000 Nissan 280 ZX | Cars, Vans & Utes | Gumtree Australia Joondalup Area - Woodvale | 1290792465 rubberman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OdinZ Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/1977-datsun-260z "KEY FACTS This Datsun 260Z is a superb restored example of the iconic Japanese sports car, benefiting from an engine rebuild by renowned specialist Les Collins Racing. Under the bonnet is a 2.6-litre ‘L26’ straight-six, driving the rear wheels via a five-speed manual transmission. The car has been treated to a nut-and-bolt refurbishment, and presents with a particularly impressive exterior, thanks to being owned by a professional automotive painter. It is believed to be one of just 98 two-seater 260Zs delivered new to Australia in 1977, and one of just 1,123 examples sold new in the country over the whole model run.

Wags Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 That’s got to be good news for z owners all round! Everyone here should have a Friday beer to celebrate your success! Given the historical price difference between the 240 and the 260 (not passing judgement as I think the 260 is a brilliant car), what would a similar restored 240 be going for? And no I am not selling my wags’ 240z C.A.R. built 240z. Just more curious to where my insurance value should be at. gav240z 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
