RB30X Posted December 22, 2009 Posted December 22, 2009 Only ever see 2+2's and was wondering if anyone knows if the coupes ever made it here. Cheers Quote
garvice Posted December 22, 2009 Posted December 22, 2009 As I understand they only ever came as personal imports. Couple of guys on this forum have them. Quote
NZeder Posted December 22, 2009 Posted December 22, 2009 In oz no. Not an offical factory imported model. In NZ yes Quote
NZeder Posted December 22, 2009 Posted December 22, 2009 I have owned 2 and would do so again. I like them make a good daily and IMHO look much better than a 2+2 Quote
RB30X Posted December 22, 2009 Author Posted December 22, 2009 Yeah I was just wondering if I ever found one to flog another L28 out of I'd keep the body somewhere to do up for one of my boys, providing their Zed fever continued till high school. They do look a lot better than the 2+2 obviously, as does the 260Z. Quote
luvemfast Posted December 22, 2009 Posted December 22, 2009 I have heard the 2 were delivered to Australia for Nissan Exec's. Quote
RB30X Posted December 22, 2009 Author Posted December 22, 2009 Dammit, and they probably parked them next to the ocean or wrapped them round poles. Mind you, imagine how the phone call would go to get insurance for one. "yes it's a 280zx, but it's only a 2 seater", "I'm sorry sir but they only came out with 4 seat", "no this one is definetly a coupe", "Computer says NO". Quote

Bit of a pain :'( Quote
260DET Posted December 25, 2009 Posted December 25, 2009 Like them so much I imported one from Japan, did a few mods and now do sprints at Lakeside and QR with it. No problems insuring it for proper $ either, limited use with LSV. Really Nissan Australia need severe punishment for not importing the two seater Z31 either, bunch of wackers. Quote
garvice Posted December 25, 2009 Posted December 25, 2009 limited use with LSV I am another happy customer with LSV, they actually took interest in my 2+2 where shannons laughed me off the phone when I wanted to insure it with them. Cheap too, I only pay ~250 a year and that was when I told them I had only 2 points on my license from 3 different fines (2 in the corollas though). Quote
