1979 Datsun 280ZX

Description

This 1979 Datsun 280ZX is the definitive Japanese classic sports car you love with a ton of investments to make it both a comfortable driver and an attention-grabber. So dig into all the details, because this is the coupe that has been done exactly the way you want.

The 280Z did come in red, but you know it never had the more vibrant tones you see on this one. That's because this Z-car was given a recent professional respray within the last few years. That makes for a sporty color that goes perfectly with this one's custom attitude. After all, the full front air dam really ups the performance attitude. And have you seen the way the spoiler is integrated into the rear? We also like the way the black is well coordinated with the bumpers, window trim, and hood louvers. Plus, there are more great details, like the tail panel insert and golden BBS-style wheels. But while this one will impress for being bold and unique, don't forget to notice the quality in the fundamentals, like the straight body panels, good weather-stripping, and new headlights. It makes for a quality total package.

The interior will have familiar feelings to anyone who's been in a Z-car before, but just like the exterior, there have been all the right investments to keep it fresh and comfortable. It starts with the bucket seats that follow a similar silhouette to the originals, but now they have been refinished within the last few years in a fresh and supple leather. And you'll love everything from the cool red contrast stitching to the newer padding. The quality feel on the carpeting, door panels, dash, center console, and more all come together to make this feel like a well-respected and invested coupe. And you'll especially love the modern comfort upgrades like cold-blowing R134a air conditioning and an AM/FM/CD stereo w/Bluetooth for the best in driving music.

Datsun's fuel-injected 2.8-liter motor already has a great reputation for being both powerful and hardy. There are even newer fundamentals like the aluminum radiator and NGK plug wires. You have complete control over this powerhouse with a five-speed manual transmission. There was nearly $4k invested in 2020 to upgrade the power steering system. Plus, the fully independent suspension, grippy Michelin tires, and four-wheel power disc brakes make for a great anytime driving package.

This one has everything you want in a Z-car: classic looks, modern unique touches, and a ton of investments. It even has the owner's manual and Haynes repair manual. So don't look twice, or this one will be gone. Call today!!!
